ONCOGENIC EFFECT OF HUMAN ADENOVIRUS TYPE 12, IN MICE.
Undifferentiated malignant tumors were induced at the site of injection of human adenovirus type 12 into newborn mice of the C(3)H(f)/ G(8). strain, but not of the DBA(f), or A(f) strains. The tumors were grossly and histologically similar to those induced by this virus in hamsters, but appeared in a smaller percentage of injected mice than hamsters.
