Oncorna-like viruses in baboon prostate tissue.
Oncorna-like virus particles were observed in prostate tissue of 2 of 11 baboons inoculated 3 years previously with a chemical carcinogen. There were no indications, however, of any relationship between the carcinogen and the development of virus particles. Biopsy specimens from the animals showed no evidence of neoplasia, and electron microscopic examination suggested that this virus should be categorized as a B-type oncornavirus.
