MHH-PREB-1 is a human precursor B-cell leukemia cell line derived from a patient with precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pre-B ALL). This cell line provides a useful in vitro model for the study of molecular mechanisms of B-cell development, leukemogenesis and therapeutic response in hematologic malignancies. The MHH-PREB-1 cells display immunophenotypic features of precursor B lymphocytes, including expression of early B-cell markers associated with immature lymphoid differentiation. MHH-PREB-1 cells are widely used in leukemia research because of their stable growth properties and reproducible biological behavior, especially in studies on signal transduction, regulation of apoptosis, drug resistance, and activation of oncogenic pathways. The cell line has also been used to study chromosomal aberrations and gene expression profiles in the progression of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Furthermore, MHH-PREB-1 offers a valuable platform for testing novel anticancer agents, targeted therapeutics, and immunomodulatory approaches. The model is also often used by researchers studying cytokine signaling, chemotherapy sensitivity, and interactions between leukemic cells and the microenvironment. MHH-PREB-1 remains a well-characterized pre-B ALL model that contributes to both basic leukemia biology and translational hematology research, thereby supporting the improvement of therapeutic strategies for pediatric and adult ALL.

C15:0 Had Selective Inhibitory Activities Against Specific Human Cancer Cell Types, Especially B-Cell Lymphomas

Pentadecanoic acid (C15:0), a saturated fatty acid, displays anticancer action at high doses, although its physiological effects are still unknown. Venn-Watson et al. tested C15:0 at concentrations ranging from 1.5 nM to 50 µM on 94 human cancer cell lines. Data from the Hs 229.T cell line were omitted since this line was classed as a fibroblast line.

C15:0 inhibited 13 (13.8%) cell lines with EC50 ≤ 50 µM (6-47 µM). Most susceptible lines were non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphomas (n=8; 61.5%) with fewer hepatocellular (n=2), breast (n=2) and lung (n=1) cancer lines impacted. The lymphoma cell lines DOHH-2, GA-10, MHH-PREB-1 and SU-DHL-4 demonstrated EC50, IC50 and GI50 values ≤ 50 µM (Figure 1). In contrast, majority of the lung (25/26), breast (15/17), pancreatic (13/13) and liver (5/7) cancer cell lines were resistant (EC50 > 50 µM). With 81 (86.2%) cell lines resistant to the drug.

Dose-response curves (1.5 nm to 50 µM) of human cancer cell lines (a) DOHH-2, (b) GA-10, (c) MHH-PREB-1, and (d) SU-DHL-4 in which C15:0 had the most robust inhibitory activities (defined as EC50, IC50, and GI50 ≤ 50 µM).
