## Abstract The incidence of metastasis of xenogeneic tumors transplanted to nude mice is controversial. We studied 106 malignant human tumor lines in a total of 1,045 nude mice, and observed metastasis in only 14 instances (1.3%), involving 11 different tumor lines. Three of the lines showed repea

## Abstract We verified the oncogenic effect ofpolyoma virus in gnotobiotic nude (nu/nu) mice compared to their gnotobiotic normal counterparts (nu/+). The nude mice were found to be much more sensitive to the oncogenic activity of the virus than were their heterozygote counterparts. This increased
The athymic (nude) mouse is a useful model for studying the biology and response to therapies of human tumors in vivo. A survey of recent literature revealed the use of 19 different formulas for determining the size of subcutaneous tumors grown as xenografts in nude mice (2 for determining tumor are
