Abstract excerpt
Rat parvovirus (RPV) is nonpathogenic in rats but causes persistent lymphocytotropic infection. We found that RPV was propagated in rat thymic lymphoma cell line C58(NT)D and induced apoptosis. Interestingly, a resistant subclone, C58(NT)D/R, from surviving cells after lytic infection had differentiated phenotypic modifications, such as increased cell adherence, resistance to apoptosis, and suppressed tumorigenicity.
