## Abstract X‐ray‐transformed C3H/10T1/2 cells serially passaged in the presence of highly purified mouse interferon appeared to acquire progressively a tolerance to the inhibitory effect of interferon on cell proliferation. In contrast, these cells did not appear to develop a tolerance to the anti

Abstract
We have compared the interferon sensitivity of parental 10T1/2 cells, having a phenotype characteristic of normal cells, with that of transformed cells isolated after X‐irradiation or treatment with methylcholanthrene. Transformed cells were 10‐ to 20‐fold less sensitive than the parental untransformed cells to the antiviral action of interferon and were also less sensitive to the inhibitory effect of interferon on cell multiplication. The decreased sensitivity of these cells to interferon is a useful marker of the transformed phenotype.
