An Enzymatic Function Associated with Transformation of Fibroblasts by Oncogenic Viruses
Chick, hamster, mouse, and rat embryo fibroblast cultures, transformed by either DNA or RNA viruses, show fibrinolytic activity under suitable conditions of growth and in appropriate media; normal counterpart cultures do not. The fibrinolysin is produced by the interaction of two protein factors: one of these, a cell factor, is released by transformed cells and accumulates in the medium when cu...

The biochemical identification of functions that are specific to malignant cells is important both for understanding the mechanism(s) of oncogenic transformation and for formulating rationally selective approaches to the chemotherapy of cancer. A variety of biochemical differences between normal and transformed cells is recorded in the literature; most of these involve small quantitative differ...
متن کاملFibrinolysis Associated with Oncogenic Transformation
Fetal bovine and dog serum were selectively freed of plasminogen by affinity chromatography. The resulting serum as well as native and reconstituted serum (obtained by the addition of purified plasminogen to the plasminogen-depleted serum) were used to examine the role of plasminogen in (a) growth of normal and SV-40-transformed hamster embryo fibroblasts in liquid medium, (b) growth of SV-40-t...
متن کاملOncogenic Viruses, Cellular Transformation and Human Cancers
It has been a century since the initial discovery of the possible link between viruses and tumors. During the past century, extensive studies have been conducted to understand the relationship between viruses and cancers. The early studies were focused on tumor viruses that do not cause cancers in their natural hosts. These studies provided the basis for the subsequent studies on the six known ...
متن کاملTransformation of Hamster Embryo Fibroblasts by Herpes Simplex Viruses
Hamster embryo fibroblast cells can be transformed after infection by ultraviolet light-irradiated herpes simplex viruses type 1 (HSV-1) or type 2 (HSV-2). Two ofl2 strains of HSV-1 and 7 of 15 strains of HSV-2 induced cell transformation. Transformed cells from two strains of HSV-2 and one strain of HSV-1 have been tested for oncogenicity in newborn Syrian hamsters. One cell line transformed b...
