title: [Induction of dolykaryocytes by vesicular stomatitis virus in XC rat cells].
abstract: V.S.V. induced polycaryocytes in rat embryonic fibroblasts, transformed by the Prague strain of Sarcoma Rous (XC cells). This fusion is strictly dependent on the expression of the viral genome and is probably due to the incorporation of viral antigens in the cell membrane. The integrity of cellular RNA synthesis is however not required. The fusion is probably due to a membrane structure characteristic of these transformed cells.
