Abstract |
The present research is aimed at the characterization of two transformed
human cell lines, derived from WI-38 cells, originally infected, and not,
with Herpesvirus hominis of subtype 2 (HSV-2). Of the two cell lines,
indicated respectively with the abbreviations WI-38Tr and WI-38 (HSV-2)
Tr, high oncogenic activity and typical cell dimorphism (fibroblastic and
epithelial-like elements) have already been described.
