## Abstract __Herpesvirus saimiri__ (__Saimiriine herpesvirus__‐2), a γ2‐herpesvirus (rhadinovirus) of non‐human primates, causes T‐lymphoproliferative diseases in susceptible organisms and transforms human and non‐human T lymphocytes to continuous growth in vitro in the absence of stimulation. T c

## A cytotoxic CD40/p55 tumor necrosis factor receptor hybrid detects CD40 ligand on herpesvirus saimiri-transformed T cells* The B cell activation molecule CD40 and the p55 tumor necrosis factor receptor (p55TNFR) belong to the same family of structurally conserved proteins. We constructed a chim
## Abstract The Marek's Disease virus‐transformed, non‐producer, lymphoma cell line, MDCC‐RP1, was selected by sequential transplantation to produce a highly malignant variant, MDCC‐AL1. This is evidenced by an 18‐fold decrease in LD~50‐~. The new cell line has an increased ability to form metastat
T lymphocytes can undergo an activation/proliferation response or an apoptotic response following T cell receptor engagement. The choice between these outcomes is dictated by the activation state of the T lymphocyte, the presence of interleukin-2 and the strength of the T cell receptor stimulus. Spe
