Abstract: | The permanent human cell lines preserving defects of lysosomal enzymes, GM1-1019-SV and SA-1077-SV, were established from the respective fibroblasts from patients with GMl-gangliosidosis and Sandhoff disease by transfection with replication origin-minus simian virus 40 DNA. These ceils grow rapidly without entering senescence during more than 120 population doublings. The activity of -galactosidase in GM1-1019-SV and of B-N-acetylhexosaminidase in SA-1077-SV was respectively 40- and 180-fold lower than that of normal fibroblasts. |
