## Abstract Studies in an inbred line of hamsters have revealed that animals bearing tumor transplants reject a second graft of the same cells. This resistance was specific and was manifested against tumor cells induced by viruses (PARAโadenovirus 7, simian adenovirus 7) or chemicals (9,10โdimethyl

โฆ Synopsis
Subcutaneous hamster tumors induced by Simian adenovirus SA7, strains C8, B105 and C626, were found to be poorly difJerentiated sarcomas having morphological features which distinguish them from tumors induced at the same site by papovaviruses and the Rous sarcoma virus. In general, the adenovirus-induced tumors were morphologically alike, C8-induced sarcomas showing some di'erences. Tumors induced by this strain in the subcutaneous tissue, muscles, peritoneum and mediastinum were morphologically identical. Tumors found in the brain were mainly malignant ependymomas and choroid plexus carcinomas, generally originating in neuroectodeum.
The oncogenicity of adenovirus SA7 ( C 8 ) in meso-and ectodermal cells has thus been demonstrated.
