Neoplasm Induction by Murine Type-C Viruses Passaged Directly from Spontaneous Non-lymphoreticular Tumours

Abstract

THE isolation and demonstration of the leukaemogenicity of murine C-type RNA viruses, commonly called murine leukaemia virus (MuLV), have usually involved continuous cell lines, transplants and other passage procedures in which the viral genotype may be modified and selected
