Résumé :

Transformation of mouse fibroblasts by simian virus 40 (SV40) or certain oncogenes enhances their susceptibility to the lytic replication of Minute virus of mice (MVM), a non-defective parvovirus. It was investigated whether this cytotoxic action of MVM can also be potentiated by two types of incomplete and reversible cell transformation induced either by SV40 infection or by exposure to the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Although the latter two treatments trigger the expression of several traits of the transformed phenotype, they do not significantly enhance cell permissiveness to MVM. © 1988.
