    IDEXX u251 variants
    A , representative metaphase FISH pictures of PTEN/CEP10 and EGFR/CEP7 dual probes showing all cells carrying one copy of Chr10, an unknown chromosome with a PTEN translocation, and three cell types differing in their composition of normal and derivative Chr7 (dChr7). Arrow points to dChr7; arrowhead to normal Chr7. B , percentage of majority cells in the parental culture, derived or converted SA or NS subcultures, and the parental culture after lentiviral transductions by pTRIPZ-Vec (P-Vec), pTRIPZ-EFEMP1 with (P-E1) or after withdrawal (P-E1wd) of doxycyclin. C–D , comparison of DNA copy number variation in chromosomes 7, 8, 17, and 22 for <t>U251</t> parental derived or converted NS subcultures of NS1 or SA1-NS, respectively. The Y axis is the log ratio of intensity (the ratio of test sample and normal blood) from comparative genome hybridization. Amplifications or deletions are shown by blue lines above or below the red or green areas, respectively, based on Z-score, and those with marked changes are highlighted in purple.

    A , schematic illustration of the working mechanism with Chr7-MS resulting in heterogeneous subpopulations and cellular phenotype inter-conversion, with STIC inhibiting growth of TMC and/or TMC stimulating growth of STIC. The Chr7 composition was shown for representative subpopulation cells in U251, based on metaphase FISH.A higher growth rate for TMC ( r 3 ) was shown compared to that for STIC ( r 2 ). Cells marked by black circles were seen in metaphase FISH analysis, suggesting their ability to grow in vitro . Cells marked by gray boxes were not seen in metaphase FISH analysis, suggesting they are unable, or have very low ability to grow in vitro . B , changes in population equilibrium from homogeneity to heterogeneity in NS1 after serial, three-day passages in SA-culture conditions, using the same cell plating density (5×10 5 /100 mm dish), with cell types determined by FISH (experimental) and then modeled using different parameters as detailed in Methods. C . changes in cell growth speed as measured or predicted by various mathematical models. D , s.c. tumorigenicity assay showing the TMC features of 3Chr7:2n,1d cells converted from STIC by increasing percentage tumor onset (a tumor size of ∼50 mm 3 ). The plot with percent uses percents computed via the Kaplan-Meier method. Log-rank test for trend with 3Chr7:2n,1d cells shows two-sided P <0.0001.
