摘要:LSH Syrian hamster cells transformed in vitro by simian virus 40, which is oncogenic for hamsters, are resistant to rejection by adult allogeneic CB hamsters. In contrast, simian virus 40-transformed cells from other species are usually not oncogenic in immunocompetent autologous or isologous hosts. The ability of simian virus 40 to convey resistance to an allograft-type host response to transformed hamster cells may be important in determining the tumor-inducing capacity of these cells and could, in part, explain the species-specific oncogenicity of this virus.
