The genomic activity of nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) in eight human B-cell lymphoblastoid cell lines was studied following the routinely used Ag-NOR technique. The results demonstrate that (a) Ag-NORs are located in the short arms of D- and G-group chromosomes, (b) two out of eight cell lines have 66.7% and 49.0% of metaphases, respectively, with 9 to 10 active Ag-NORs, and (c) as a whole, Ag-NOR activity is much higher in B-cell lines as compared with conventional 72-hr peripheral blood lymphocyte (T-cell) harvests.
采用常规的银染核仁组织区(Ag-NOR)技术,对8个人类B淋巴细胞系中的核仁组织区(NORs)的基因组活性进行了研究。结果表明:(a)Ag-NORs位于D组和G组染色体的短臂上;(b)8个细胞系中有2个分别有66.7%和49.0%的中期细胞具有9到10个活性Ag-NORs;(c)总体而言,与传统的72小时外周血淋巴细胞(T细胞)收获物相比,B细胞系中的Ag-NOR活性要高得多。
