Sixteen specimens of faeces from children with acute diarrhoea due to rotavirus were inoculated into MA-104 cells. Rotaviruses present in six of the specimens were successfully adapted to growth after serial passage. Two of these strains had "short RNA" patterns and had caused epidemics of diarrhoea

## Abstract Chicken fetal antigen (CFA) was detected on normal splenic lymphocytes and a direct relationship was observed between the percentage of CFAβpositive cells and the age of the donor. The fetal antigen was also detected on lymphoblastoid tumor cells and cell lines induced by known avian on
Glucocorticoid hormones penetrate rapidly into intact lymphoblastoid cells and are retained with the same high affinity and specificity as with cytoplasmic extracts. Optimal conditions for lethal glucocorticoid responses in vitro were determined for a series of human lymphoblastoid cell lines by usi
The increased multiplication of converted chicken cells in the presence of limited amounts of serum results from more efficient utilization of multiplicationstimulating activity rather than increased binding or uptake of this activity. X lo5 cells in 60-mm plastic petri dishes (Falcon Plastics) wer
In order t o examine the role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in the immortalization of human B lymphocytes and in the pathogenesis of lymphoid malignancies, we investigated whether the EBV integration into the human genome is randomly distributed or whether the virus integrates preferentially at certai
