["Chain" karyotypic evolution of embryonic stem cell line R1 in vitro].
Cytogenetic anomaly frequencies were analysed in three sublines of ES R1 line in its five clonal sublines, obtained from two cell colonies after transformation of ES R1 cells by plasmid with gene lif. Cell transformation did not increase cytogenic anomalies, however, the initial sublines of ES R1 line, as well as its transformed clonal descendants bore a redundant quantity of the chromosome 8 material within the structure of various Robertsonian translocations even in cells with diploid chromosome quantity (2n = 40). In the initial sublines ES R1 and its clonal descendants a common Rb (8; 15) was revealed. It was supposed that selection for the increase in ES cell sensitivity to cytokines (in particular, LIF) under cultural conditions was accompanied by an increase in chromosomal copies, carrying genes of mapk andjak/stat, through which downstream effectors of cytokine signals for preservation of cell pluripotention and propagation are realized. Genes of chromatid separation and chromosome segregation control (for example, separase gene Esp1 in chromosome 15) may be passively involved in this process, thus promoting acceleration of karyotype evolution in ES cells.
