Popis: | Cultures of canine, rabbit, porcine, avian, feline, bovine, simian and human origin were tested for their susceptibility to the Kirsten murine sarcoma virus (Ki-MSV). Data indicated that Ki-MSV replicates and transforms the cultures of canine embryo, rabbit kidney, porcine kidney, feline embryo, bovine embryo and human tumor cells. These morphologically altered cells contained infectious virus and group-specific (gs) complement-fixing (CF) antigen characteristic of viruses of the murine sarcoma-leukemia complex. The infected cultures produced type-C virus particles. RNA-dependent DNA polymerase activity was also demonstrable in the altered cells. The present results indicate that members of the murine sarcoma-leukemia virus complex, particularly Ki-MSV, exhibit a wider host range than was hitherto believed. |
