Spontaneous and mitomycin-C-induced chromosomal aberration level was studied in bone marrow cells of mice F1 (NZBXNZW), an experimental model of systemic lupus erythematosus and in C57BL/6J mice. The chromosome instability level is found to correspond to the degree of the autoimmune process: F1 (NZBXNZW) mice with the highest titer of autoantibodies to DNA has higher chromosomal mutability.
