EBV transformed B cell lines derived from Japanese (HEV)
● We are providing B cell lines derived from healthy Japanese and the Japanese patients suffering from cancers etc. The cell lines derived from healthy individuals possess the precise information regarding HLA haplotypes and we are providing such information as well.
● These cell lines are useful for genetic analyses, and thus we are providing these cell lines for researches including analyses of gene and genome. We provide this collection not only to domestic users in Japan but also to users in overseas, in addition not only to not-for-profit institutions but also to for-profit institutions.
● Providing B cell lines were transformed by Epstein-Barr Virus.
● In addition to the cell material itself, we are providing information about gender, age and habit of the individuals who have donated the source cells. When we possess the information of gene and/or genome, we provide them as well.
● After the providing procedures including a conclusion of an MTA (material transfer agreement), we provide this collection.
● This collection including its information is strictly preserved by the RIKEN BioResource Research Center.
● The cell lines are anonymous. It is impossible to know the individuals who donated the source cells, and the donators cannot withdraw the utilization for researches.
