Fourteen colorectal cancer cell lines, categorized according to the presence or absence of microsatellite instability, were further analysed for chromosomal stability by karyotyping. NonRER (microsatellite stable) cell lines typically displayed highly aberrant karyotypes with alterations not only of chromosome number but also of chromosome structure including chromosomal deletions, inversions, and translocations....
