title: Application of the theory of transition probability in "ageing" WI 38 cells; similar behaviour of clonogenic cells from early and late passage cultures.
abstract: Analysis of genealogies of WI 38 clones reveals: 1. The proliferation behaviour of the cells can be adequately described in terms of the transition probability model, despite non-steady state kinetics. 2. Early and late clones show nearly identical behaviour.
