Type-C RNA viruses of the NIH nude mouse.
Several types of tumors from various species were propagated in NIH athymic nude mice. Subsequently, cell lines were established from the tumors and examined for evidence of type-C virus activity. Hybrid mice (NIH Swiss and BALB/c) harbored murine type-C viruses of three categories: N-tropic, B-tropic and X-tropic.
