Abstract excerpt
Skin cancers induced in mice by UV radiation often exhibit a regressor phenotype. In order to determine how tumors escape the immune defenses of the normal immunocompetent host, we sought to isolate progressor variants from a UV radiation-induced C3H mouse regressor fibrosarcoma cell line, UV-2240, by transfection with an activated Ha-ras oncogene. A cotransfection protocol using pSV2-neo DNA, which confers...
