Journal ArticleDOI
Chromosomes and cancer
TL;DR: Systematic analysis of chromosomal aberrations in more than 600 human neoplasms, studied by the group or taken from the literature, showed that in 12 different tumor types most chromosomes were unaffected, the significant deviations being clustered to 10 of the 24 human chromosome types.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endomitotic reduplication mechanisms in ascites tumors of the mouse.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of chromosomes in cancerogenesis, as studied in serial tissue culture of mammalian cells.

TL;DR: The development of malignancy is regarded as a process of selection on the cellular level that favors cells with the acquired capacity of escaping the control of the host organism, and the regular appearance of new karyotypes in cancer stemlines supports this view.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytological reactions induced by inorganic salt solutions.
TL;DR: Salts, mostly nitrates, of some forty metals were tested, covering the whole range from total lethality down to such weak con- centrations that no cytological effect could be detected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromosomes in cancer tissue.
TL;DR: Winge is the first modern cytogeneticist to stress the tumor tissue as a genetically heterogeneous cell population and to visualize the origin and growth of tumors as a result of selective processes among the constituents of this population.
