[The isolation and analysis of lymphoblastoid cell lines from patients with xeroderma pigmentosum and progeria].
Lymphoblastoid cell lines from patients with xeroderma pigmentosum (2 forms) and progeria (unusual form) were established using transformation of peripheral blood lymphocytes by Epstein--Barr virus. The influence of different UV doses on cell vitality, proliferation and cell cycle progression was studied by means of flow cytometry. The cell vitality was determined after incubation of cells with etidium bromide and FDA. We used cytograms with two logarithmic signals (log green/log red) to discriminate the cell cycle status. Cell cultures were used with density of 500,000 cells per 1 ml, previously synchronized at G-phase by the incubation in a medium with low serum content. The effect of UV irradiation was followed during 72 h. Among four analysed cell lines only line XP2SP demonstrated enhanced UV sensitivity, expressed by decreasing of the amount of living cells after the UV dose of 2.5 J/m2 and higher. The cell cycle studies showed that cells were blocked in S-phase and simultaneously the amount of apoptotic cells with both reduced DNA content and ability to bind FDA was seen increased. Similar events were observed in the control line only after the dose of 20 J/m2 and higher.
