| Application | FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY The MT-2 cell line, with its phenotypic and functional resemblance to human regulatory T cells (Tregs), serves as a valuable resource for investigating Treg biology. Notably, MT-2 cells harbor HTLV-1 and facilitate HIV growth, making them pivotal in elucidating viral interactions. This cell line is indispensable in advancing our understanding of MT-2 cell tropism, a critical factor in clinical trials and treatment selection for patients, particularly in the context of infectious diseases. | |||

MT-2 is a T-cell line derived from normal human cord leukocytes of a male infant by co-cultivation with leukemic T-cells from a female patient with adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). These cells exhibit T-cell characteristics, expressing receptors for sheep erythrocytes and complement, reacting with anti-T-cell and anti-Ia sera, but testing negative for Fc receptors, surface immunoglobulin, and Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen. Chromosome analysis confirms their cord lymphocyte origin, revealing a predominantly male diploid karyotype. Furthermore, MT-2 cells are persistently infected with type C virus particles (ATLV) and display positivity for ATL-associated antigens (ATLA), specifically recognized by ATL patient sera.- ONLINE INQUIRY
