核型: The cell line is aneuploid human male (XY), with most chromosome counts in the triploid range. However, the chromosome count range is quite broad, extending from hyperdiploid to hexaploid. Normal chromosomes N11 and N20 are under-represented with respect to the other normal chromosomes: altered forms of these two chromosomes are prominent as marker chromosomes. Chromosome N13 tends towards over-representation. Five marker chromosomes are noted: 20q+, 11q+, 8p+, del(1)(q31), 5p+(HSR). One of these, 20q, is identical to marker chromosome M1 of C. O'Toole, et al., Br. J. Cancer 38: 64, 1978. The remainder are not as clearly related to the original marker chromosomes noted by those authors.
