JeKo-1 Cell Line

General Information
Organism Homo sapiens, human
Cell Line Description JeKo-1 is a human mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cell line established in 1997, derived from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a 78-year-old female patient diagnosed with MCL (leukemic variant). This cell line was isolated after the patient had undergone multiple rounds of chemotherapy and her disease had entered a refractory relapse phase. Distinguished by its hallmark genomic translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32)—a translocation that drives the constitutive overexpression of Cyclin D1 (CCND1)—JeKo-1 is globally recognized as the "gold standard" in vitro model for the study of mantle cell lymphoma. JeKo-1 is widely classified as a representative, high-grade cell line exhibiting aggressive characteristics within the spectrum of MCL. It serves as an indispensable tool for investigating cell cycle dysregulation, BCR-mediated signaling networks, mechanisms of resistance to BTK inhibitors, and for screening novel therapeutic targets in B-cell malignancies.
Tissue Peripheral Blood
Disease Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL; Leukemic Variant)
Morphology Lymphoblast-like; round/oval floating single cells and loose aggregates
Gender Female
Age 78 years
Product Format Frozen
Growth Mode Suspension
Biosafety Level 1 (Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines)
Applications 1. Molecular pathogenic mechanisms of t(11;14)-positive and cyclin D1-overexpressing mantle cell lymphoma
2. Elucidation of B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling architecture and downstream pathways
3. Characterization of mechanisms underlying sensitivity or acquired resistance to BTK inhibitors
4. Preclinical validation of targeted therapies (e.g., BCL2 inhibitors, CDK4/6 inhibitors)
5. Establishment of systemic and subcutaneous xenograft animal models for MCL
Shipped In Dry ice
Storage Temperature −196°C
Characteristics
Tumorigenic Yes, highly tumorigenic in immunocompromised mice (e.g., SCID or NSG mice)
Karyotype Human hyperdiploid karyotype; modal number = 47/48; contains structural rearrangements including: t(11;14)(q13.3;q32.33), der(2)t(2;8)(p11.2;q24.2), der(17)t(13;17)(q14.1;p13), and add(22)(q11.2).
Genetic Profile 1. Translocation: The characteristic t(11;14) translocation, which rearranges the CCND1 locus to the IGH enhancer region, resulting in the overexpression of Cyclin D1.
2. Mutations: TP53 mutations; MYC rearrangements/overexpression.
3. EBV Status: EBV-negative (Epstein-Barr virus-negative).
Immunophenotype Strongly positive for CD19, CD20, CD22, CD23, CD37, CD38, CD40, CD5, and HLA-DR; Negative for CD3, CD10, CD11c, CD138, and cyCD3
Growth Kinetics Doubling time is approximately 30 to 45 hours; thrives best when seeded within optimal functional density ranges
Mycoplasma Test Negative
Culture Conditions and Handling
Subculturing 1. Suspension cells do not require enzymatic digestion. Please collect the entire suspension directly from the culture flask.
2. Centrifuge the cell suspension at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes.
3. Completely aspirate the spent supernatant medium, taking care not to disturb the cell pellet at the bottom.
4. Resuspend the cells in fresh, pre-warmed complete growth medium.
5. Seed the cells into a new culture flask. Please maintain a high baseline seeding density: the density should be kept at a minimum of 0.3 X 10^6 to 0.5 X 10^6 cells/mL. Do not allow the cell density to exceed 2.0 X 10^6 cells/mL.
Medium Renewal Every 2 to 3 days
Subcultivation Ratio Split optimal suspension cultures at a ratio of 1:2 to 1:4
Culture Conditions Atmosphere: Air, 95%; CO2, 5%; Temperature: 37°C
Cryopreservation 70% to 80% RPMI 1640 + 10% to 20% FBS + 10% DMSO
