Abstract excerpt
Karyotypic and phenotypic changes were found in human adult endothelial cells (EC) during aging in vitro. A trisomy of chromosome 11 was found in 11 out of 12 EC cultures examined, derived from 9 cell lines from 8 donors. The incidence of this trisomy in some cell lines increased over time from 0% to as much as 100% near the end of their in vitro life span. A number of oncogenes and other important genes are on...
