Abstract
A cytopathic effect was induced by the Schmidt‐Ruppin strain of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV‐SR) in five of nine rat tumor cell lines tested in vitro. The cells showed irreversible cytopathic change as early as 24‐48 h after infection. Of the leukemogenic and tumorigenic viral agents tested, only RSV‐SR induced the rapid Rous cytopathic effect. Virus was recovered 8 days after inoculation of the tumor cell lines XC and M41. The effect was neutralized by specific anti‐RSV‐SR antiserum. Correlation between oncogenicity of the rat tumor lines in the syngeneic host and their susceptibility to RSV‐SR was incomplete.
