mortality/aging
|
• fewer than expected mice are present at birth
|
cellular
|
• centrosomal overduplication in mouse embryonic fibroblasts that gradually diminishes over successive passages
|
|
• mouse embryonic fibroblasts escape contact inhibition 5 days after the confluent stage and pile up after 12 days unlike wild-type mice
|
|
• mouse embryonic fibroblasts exhibit chromosomal misalignment, multipolar spindle formation, chromosomal bridging and cytokinesis failure unlike wild-type cells
|
|
• multipolar spindle formation in mouse embryonic fibroblasts
|
|
• mouse embryonic fibroblasts grown on nanoculture plates or 3D collagen gels exhibit accelerated growth and spheroid formation compared with wild-type cells
|
growth/size/body
|
• until 4 weeks after birth
|
neoplasm
|
• mouse embryonic fibroblasts injected into nude mice produce tumors that grow slower than ordinary epithelial cancer cells unlike wild-type cells
