Investigations on the presence of papova virus in certain forms of human cancer. Note 2. Brain tumors.

Two serially transmissible tumors (metastatic lymphosarcomas) were induced in the hamster by inoculation of human brain tumor material--tissue homogenate from a malignized fibroma or DNA extracted from a meningioma. SV40 V antigen was made evident by indirect immunofluorescence in 4 out of 18 human tumors, while SV40 T antigen could only be demonstrated in the tumors experimentally induced in hamsters. Antibodies to SV40 T antigen were detected in 12 out of 60 patients with different tumors, in 1 out of 40 blood donors and in 7 out of 18 hamsters carrying experimentally induced tumors.
