Abstract

We have determined the origin of the extra chromosomal material in the karyotypes of two spontaneously-occurring long-lived human keratinocyte lines, HKC-N2 and HKC-N6. In each case the extra material was derived from the chromosome on which it was located. Possible relationships between the triplication of chromosomal material and the overcoming of cell senescence are discussed.
