The Analysis of Malignancy by Cell Fusion: I. Hybrids Between Tumour Cells and L Cell Derivatives

TL;DR: In this paper, a wide range of different kinds of malignant cell were fused with certain derivatives of the L cell line and the ability of the resulting hybrid cells to grow progressively in vivo was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic instability and apoptosis are frequent in p53 deficient young mice

TL;DR: It is found that cells from various organs of 4 to 6-week old p53-nullizygous (p53−/−) mice display aneuploidy and frequent gene amplification as well as evidence for apoptosis, indicating that a high number of aberrant cells is eliminated by p 53-independent pathways in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonrandom chromosome changes involving the Ig gene-carrying chromosomes 12 and 6 in pristane-induced mouse plasmacytomas.

TL;DR: The karyotypes of pristane-induced mouse plasmacytomas support the theory that the nonrandom chromosomal changes in lymphoproliferative malignancies are associated with the type of the target cell, rather than with the etiological agent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasmacytomagenesis in mice: model of neoplastic development dependent upon chromosomal translocations.

TL;DR: Three model systems of plasmacytomagenesis that are associated with mutations that affect c-myc transcription were discussed and fundamental unanswered questions are whether these inflammatory tissues provide products such as oxidants in vivo that damage DNA and promote mutagenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth and antigenic properties of a biopsy-derived Burkitt's lymphoma in thymus-less (nude) mice.

TL;DR: In this article, a Burkitt's lymphoma was transferred to the congenitally athymic mouse mutant nude with biopsy material from a 7-year-old Kenyan girl.
