Abstract
Sarcoma, metastatic in one instance, with a latent period of 6-7 months was induced in the primitive primate, T. glis by subcutaneous injection of 3,4-benzpyrene. Transplantation was successful in one instance with a pregnant animal. Growth in tissue culture was established from trypsinized fragments of the tumor. The fibroblastic cells demonstrated a lack of contact inhibition and contained cytoplasmic inclusion bodies.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
