Abstract excerpt
In this study, we utilized an in vitro model of spontaneous transformation/progression, an SV40 large T antigen-immortalized rat hepatocyte cell line (designated CWSV14) that is very weakly tumorigenic at low-passage, but acquires a transformed phenotype upon extended passage in cell culture. Here we show that this mid-passage transformation is accompanied by development of aneuploidy and disorganization of the...
