Characterization of Aneuploid Populations with Trisomy 7 and 20 Derived from Diploid Human Colonic Epithelial Cells
1 Apr 2011
Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal instability leading to aneuploidy occurs in most sporadic colorectal cancers (CRCs) and is believed to be an early driving force in disease progression. Despite this observation, the cellular advantages conferred by these cytogenetic alterations are poorly understood. Here, we provide evidence that serum-free passage of originally diploid, immortalized human colonic epithelial cells (HCECs) gave rise...
