✦ Synopsis


Abstract

Treatment of the SV40 transformed 3T3 cell line SV101 with colchicine permits the isolation of polyploid revertant sublines Which have lower saturation densities than SV101. These low saturation density lines have also reverted to a high serum requirement for growth, and are unable to form colonies in methocel. Normal SV40 has been recovered from these revertants.

3T3 cells are more resistant to colchicine than SV3T3 cells at all cell densities. Colchicine revertants do not display a 3T3‐like resistance to colchicine at low density, but do survive colchicine at confluent cell densities, presumably due to their increased contact inhibition.

## Abstract SV101, the SV40‐transformed subline of the mouse fibroblast line 3T3, is both serum‐ and density transformed, since it grows in both 1% and 10% calf serum, and grows beyond confluence in 10% calf serum.

## Abstract 3T3 mouse fibroblasts in 10% calf serum cease to increase in number at confluence. SV40‐transformed 3T3 cells lose their sensitivity to this growth control and so are able to reach multilayered cell densities. We previously described a polyploid revertant line F1SV101, isolated from a S

We previously reported that Kirsten sarcoma virus transformed BALB 3T3 (Ki-3T3) cell cultures contained mainly type I collagen and about 30% of another type designated by us as Y and which appears to be type I11 collagen, krl(III)13. Clones of BALB 3T3 which exhibited contactinhibition were found to
