Abstract
Cortisone-treated mice were inoculated with vaccinia virus, and then five paintings of methylcholanthrene were applied over the site of inoculation. In 70 percent of the mice, tumors developed at the site of inoculation, and 35 percent of the mice, with and without skin tumors, also developed lymphomas. Identically treated control mice that were vacciniaimmune developed a significantly lower incidence (38 percent) of both skin tumors and lymphomasKeywords
