Abstract
Rat parvovirus (RPV) is nonpathogenic in rats but causes persistent lymphoc ytotropic infection. We found that RPV was propagated in rat thymic lymphom a cell line C58(NT)D and induced apoptosis. Interestingly, a resistant subc lone, C58(NT)D/R, from surviving cells after lytic infection had differenti ated phenotypic modifications, such as increased cell adherence, resistance to apoptosis, and suppressed tumorigenicity.
