Abstract excerpt
Fibroblast cell lines derived from the skin of young adult mice of the long-lived Snell dwarf mutant mouse stock have been shown to be resistant to the cytotoxic effects of multiple agents, including hydrogen peroxide, cadmium, heat, ultraviolet light, and the carcinogen methyl methanesulfonate. Snell dwarf fibroblasts are here reported to differ from control cell lines in two other respects: they are relatively...
