TL;DR: Findings support a previously stated hypothesis that the genome of RNA tumor viruses is vertically transmitted as part of the natural genetic apparatus of normal mouse cells and suggest that the genes for RNA tumor virus, which later in life act as determinants of cancer, may be important also as gene determinants in the developing embryo.
Journal ArticleDOI
GENETIC CONTROL BY THE hr-LOCUS OF SUSCEPTIBILITY AND RESISTANCE TO LEUKEMIA
TL;DR: The two types of HRS/J mice, hr/hr and hr/+, are congenic, i.e., they differ only with respect to one allele (hr or +) at the mutant locus, which should lend itself to analysis of the interaction of a specific gene and murine leukemia virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of murine C-type RNA virus group specific antigen in inbred strains of mice
TL;DR: The prevalence of antigen increased with age in most strains, and genetically related strains had a similar incidence; the pattern of “virus-expression” is at least in part genetically determined, but can be modified by endogenous-physiological (age) and exogenous-environmental factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell-free transmission of mouse neuroblastoma.
TL;DR: Ten attempts were made to reproduce the cell-free transmission of neuroblastoma C1300, a transplantable tumour in strain A/J mice, by Prasad et al. but failed to obtain positive results, even after 100 days postinoculation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential effect of a synthetic polyribonucleotide complex on spontaneous and transplanted leukemia in mice.
TL;DR: This finding clearly proves biological activity of Poly I:C under the conditions of the authors' experiments, and the principles of laboratory animal care as promulgated by National Society for Medical Research are observed at this Laboratory.
