XC (rat, Wistar, sarcoma)

SPECIES: rat, Wistar
TUMOR: sarcoma

DSMZ catalog code: ACC 118
Morphology: epithelial-like, small cells growing as monolayers
Endogenous viruses: contains Rous sarcoma virus
Susceptibility to viruses: Moloney-MuLV * vesic. stomatitis (Indiana)
Description: rat sarcoma the original tumor was induced in a Wistar rat by intramuscular injection of Rous sarcoma virus; cells have been used as indicator cells for detection of murine leukemia viruses confirmed as rat with IEF of AST, NP
