Delayed foreign-body tumorigenesis in mice infected with lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus: Brief communication. 1977

M Brinton-Darnell, and I Brand

Female and male CBA/H mice were infected with lactate dehydrogenase virus (LDV). Two weeks later, these mice and noninfected controls received double sc implants of unplasticized vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer films (0.2 X 15 X 22 mm). Foreign-body (FB) tumorigenesis was delayed in LDV-infected females and males by 2 months. This result could not be explained by an effect of LDV on cellular immunity, inasmuch as cellular immunity does not influence the course of FB tumorigenesis.
