β¦ Synopsis
Trisomy 15 is described as a common finding in all T-cell leukemias induced by a single dose of methylnitrosourea (MNU) in BDF, mice and in the leukemias induced by 7 doses of benzo(a)pyrene. Additional trisomies were found in about half of the leukemias. The organ distribution suggests that the leukemic cells with trisomy 15 originate in the thymus. Trisomy 15 was detected in the thymus as early as 6 weeks after the application of MNU, i.e. during the latency period.

## Abstract The banding pattern of DMBAβinduced leukemias in C57BL/6 mice revealed a very constant chromosome pattern: the presence of trisomy 15 in almost all leukemic cells. This finding strongly suggests that chromosome 15 trisomy is the first detectable specific chromosome change associated wit
Provirus insertion near the c-myc, p i m l or Mlvi-l genes occurred in 7 out of 59 virally induced T-cell leukemias. C-myc was exclusively rearranged in approximately 10% of MCF247-induced tumors while Mlvi-l was rearranged to a similar frequency in Moloney-virus-induced lymphomas. Out of 25 karyoty
