Abstract excerpt
The avian myelocytomatosis virus strain MC29 v-myc oncogene transforms a wide panel of avian cells in vitro and either blocks or maintains differentiation, depending on the cell type. In the present work, we have investigated the effect of this oncogene on the differentiation of early embryonic cells, neural crest cells, grown in vitro. We report that the MC29 v-myc gene product induces a strong cellular...
