1972 G. Klein et al. in Internat. Jrnl. Cancer 10 50/1 Namalwa and LY-2 absorbed less virus in both dilution series than the other three lines.

1979 Jrnl. Gen. Virol. 44 231 After treatment with Sendai virus, Namalwa cells form large amounts of interferon.

1987 Mutation Res. 192 75/1 The Namalwa lymphoblastoid line, established from a Ugandan girl with Burkitt lymphoma, is one of the best interferon producers.

1998 Leukemia 12 2029 We found differences in growth characteristics in the cell lines tested, with Namalwa consistently producing the largest tumors.

2002 Cancer Res. 62 3106 In a second tumor-challenge trial, NOD/SCID mice received Namalwa cells.
