Fibrous histiocytoma cell line: chromosome studies of mouse and man.
A human cell line isolated from a lung metastasis of a malignant fibrous histiocytoma was studied chromosomally. The cell line had a modal chromosome number of 59 with multiple numerical and morphologic chromosome changes and marker chromosomes. A putative clone from this cell line had a modal number of 41 with exclusively acrocentric chromosomes and was clearly not human but mouse in origin.
