[Interclonal and interpopulational differences in the frequency of spontaneous karyotypic changes in cell populations of transplantable rat rhabdomyosarcoma RA-2].
Rat organospecific transplantable RA-2 rhabdomyosarcoma substrains RA-2H (high metastatic potential), RA-2L (low metastatic potential) and RA-2T (thermal resistance) were investigated using single cell cloning technique for frequency of micronucleated cells (FMC). Significant interclonal and interpopulational differences were established. Average FMC for RA-2H was 2.96 +/- 0.13%; 5.94 +/- 0.24% for RA-2L and 1.89 +/- 0.12% for RA-2T. Clones showed 5-10 times differences in FMC in each substrain. FMC versus growth time and clone size was studied in RA-2H: average FMC dropped from 2.7% on day 9 to 0.5% on day 20 after administration and the lowest values were recorded in larger clones at each stage. Perspectives of FMC studies in tumor cell populations are discussed.
