Type C virus particles in X63-Ag8.653 mouse plasmacytoma cells and in hybridomas derived from it
Abstract:
In addition to type A virus particles which are common in Balb/c derived mineral oil induced plasmacytomas, type C virus particles have been found in the plasmacytoma cell lines X63-Ag8 and X63-Ag8.653 used in the hybridoma technique. In hybridomas obtained after fusion of X63-Ag8.653 cells with Balb/c spleen cells, C particles were expressed in 5 out of 13 different clones examined, whereas A particles were always present. Virus expression and antibody production do not exclude each other.
