[The karyotypic variability of mouse embryonic fibroblasts of 2 genotypes during spontaneous neoplastic transformation].
Karyological analysis of 6 lines with distinct tumorigenic properties of mouse strains C3H/He and C57BL/6 has been carried out using a differential staining of chromosomes. The number of normal copies of chromosomes varied in all the investigated cell lines. The more and the less stable chromosomes different from line to line. All the cell lines were characterized by decreased numbers of copies of normal chromosome 7; a decreased number of normal copies of chromosome 2 and 16 was detected in the course of the cell spontaneous neoplastic evolution. The decreased number of normal copies of chromosomes 8, 12 and X, and the increased number of normal copies of chromosome 10 were specific of the cell lines with intermediate tumorigenicity. The maximum tumorigenic cell lines differed from all other lines by increased numbers of copies of chromosomes 4 and 5, and by a decrease in copy number of chromosome 6. The data obtained are discussed in terms of the search of the regularity of karyotypic changes in the course of the cell neoplastic evolution.
