Acetylcholinesterase in cultured human leukemia/lymphoma cell lines.
Fifty-two cultured leukemia/lymphoma cell lines were studied for their acetylcholinesterase activity. There was a striking effect of maturity on enzyme activity, only the most mature cells showing significant activity. Mature T cells exhibited far more enzyme activity than mature B cells, paralleling results on normal T and B cells.
