  • Title: Induction of endogenous and of spleen focus-forming viruses during dimethylsulfoxide-induced differentiation of mouse erythroleukemia cells transformed by spleen focus-forming virus.

    Abstract:
    Spleen focus-forming virus-transformed erythroleukemic cell clones, which have been established by infection of N type mice with NB trophic Friend virus, continue to release biologically active tfriend virus of NB host range. Dimethylsulfoxide induces erythroid differentiation and a 10- to 100-fold increase in the release of biologically active Friend virus. The increase of Friend virus release is a function of the differentiating erythroleukemic cell. The induced Friend viurs is not the NB tropic Friend virus complex, but shows N host range. The induction of the Friend virus complex is due to simultaneous induction of both spleen focus-forming and endogenous viruses.
