Isolation and analysis of somatic hybrids derived from two human diploid cells.

Migeon BR, Norum RA, Corsaro CM

Abstract

Lesch-Nyhan fibroblasts and normal human leukocytes with different glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase genotypes were fused by Sendai virus. Clones were isolated on the basis of their resistance to a medium containing hypoxanthine, amethopterin, and thymidine and ability to proliferate in monolayer culture. These mononuclear cells (1) incorporated [(3)H]hypoxanthine, (2) expressed the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase heteropolymer, and (3) were polyploid. Therefore, hybrids can originate from the fusion of two diploid human cells. X chromosome inactivation did not occur in these hybrid cells of male origin. The hybrids expressed both parental genomes and exhibited the senescence and contact feeding characteristic of the human skin fibroblast.
