TF-1 have been derived from a patient with erythroleukaemia. They show complete growth dependency on GM-CSF or IL-3, and carry a homogeneous chromosomal abnormality (54,X). Constitutive expression of globin genes indicate commitment of TF-1 to the erythroid lineage, although glycophorin A or carbonyl anhydrase I are not expressed. On incubation with hemin or delta-aminolevulinic acid haemoglobin synthesis was induced, whereas TPA induced differentiation into macrophage-like cells. Erythroprotein also sustains short-term growth, but does not induce differentiation.
Preparation Note
Maintain cultures between 2-9x100,000 cells/ml; 5% CO2; 37°C.
RPMI 1640 + 2mM Glutamine + 1% Sodium Pyruvate (NaP) + 2-5ng/ml Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (Human GM-CSF) + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS). It is recommended to add fresh GM-CSF every 48 hours.
