Abstract excerpt
Intrathymic injection of the Abelson murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV) results in transformation of immature T and B lymphoid cells. In this report we demonstrate that the concentration of A-MuLV injected into murine thymi influences the selection of the transformation target. Thus, concentrated A-MuLV gives rise to Thy-1+ B220- thymomas. In contrast, dilute virus induces B220+ thymomas that also express low levels...
