  • Title: Action of cobra venom cardiotoxin on chick embryonal fibroblasts transformed with a temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus.
    Author: Kaneda N, Hamaguchi M, Kojima K, Kaneshima H, Hayashi K.
    Journal: FEBS Lett; 1985 Nov 18; 192(2):313-6. PubMed ID: 2998873.
    Abstract:
    The cytolytic action of cardiotoxin analogue III from the venom of the Formosan cobra on chick embryonal fibroblasts transformed with a temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus was investigated. The 50% effective dose of the toxin for the cells cultured at a non-permissive temperature (41 degrees C) or for noninfected normal cells was about 8 micrograms/ml whereas the value was 2 micrograms/ml for the cells cultured at a permissive temperature (36 degrees C). This indicates that the transformed cells became more susceptible to the cytolytic action of the toxin than the non-transformed cells.
