Abstract
The paper presented by Lasfargues and Moore (11) raises many interesting possibilities. The possibility of achieving transformation in cell cultures specific for the mammary tumor virus (MTV), and of developing a quantitative assay system in vitro, especially interests those working with the mouse mammary tumor system.
Supported by USPHS grants CA-05388, CA-07015, and CA-5045, and by Cancer Research Funds of the University of California.
