| Abstract | In a recent study, we found that newly isolated clones of NIH 3T3 mouse cells undergo neoplastic transformation more readily than uncloned cultures from which they were derived. After eleven low-density passages (LDPs), most of the 29 clones produced lightly stained early-stage transformed foci when grown to confluence in a primary assay for transformation, and one of them consistently produced a few tiny dense foci. In the present work, six of the clones were kept in LDPs for 56 passages and assayed for focus formation at confluence at six passage levels. The clone that produced tiny dense foci switched to light foci during the LDPs, four others produced light foci at different passage levels, and one progressed from light to dense foci after the last passage. By contrast, all the clones progressed to dense focus formation in five or fewer serial repetitions of the assay at confluence. Because all but one of the clones underwent about half as many total divisions at each LDP as they did when grown to the stationary state at confluence, the latter is more efficient in eliciting progression than the exponential growth of the LDPs. Extension of the period at confluence of uncloned cultures results in the appearance of dense foci within light foci. Because the latter are localized clonal populations, the intrafocal progression reinforces the conclusion that clonal expansion favors transformation. We discuss the significance of these results for the clonal origin of human cancer and the increased incidence of cancer with age. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
