Sera taken I month after inoculating chickens with either ri/(1702) or NP(1702) contained nei ther focus-forming virus titers nor helper virus capable of blocking focus formation following infection with subgroup A RSV (data not shown). Thus, tumor protection can be induced by components of a localized 1702-induced tumor (e.g., .vrr-induced TAs). Adoptive Transfer of rASV1702-induced Tumor Protection. In rASV1702-preinfected chickens, the time interval required to induce protection against RSV-induced tumor challenge was 10-14 days (27). This suggests that the protection involves a cellular rather than hu moral immune mechanism. We attempted to transfer the protective Fig. 3.

Splenic lymphocytes from helper virus-infected or uninfected chicks or BALB/C3T3 with 1 ug of pSV2neo plus 5 ug of a ligation mixture containing Sail cut pBH-REP (37) and either Sail cut pXD2 (v-src), p5H (c-src), pS1702, were not protective. Although some rASV1702 virus was transferred pSI57, pl702/c-src, pl57/c-src, or pBr322 control (24, 27, 38). The cells were with the activated splenic cells from rASV1702-infected donors (titers trypsinized and seeded at a 1:10 dilution 40 h after transfection, and then <10' ffu/ml), these titers were not sufficient to elicit protection (data incubated in DEM/10% CS supplemented with 10 RIM /V-2-hydroxyethyl- not shown) (27). In addition, previous results indicated that intervals piperazine-W-2-ethanesulfonic acid, pH 7.0, with changes of media every 2 of only 2 days between preinfection and challenge were insufficient to days. Foci were counted after 2 weeks. Focus formation values represent the elicit protection, even with much higher titers of rASVI702 (27). average of 3 independent transfection experiments.

After incubating overnight, the cells were overlaid with DEM/ ulator cells. Finally, pooled sera taken 2 weeks after infection with 10% CS supplemented with 0.5% agar. Colony number and size were deter mined after 2 weeks of incubation. Tumorigenicity was assayed by injecting helper virus, rASV1702, or RSV were not protective. In contrast, BALB/c nude mice (Taconic Farms, Germantown, NY) s.c. with 5 X IO5 pooled sera taken 2 months after helper virus infection induced some transfected cells (described above).

30 absence of T-cell-mediated immunity 1702src-induced tumors would grow progressively, we transfected NIH3T3 and BALB/C-3T3 cell lines with plasmid DNA encoding \-src, 1702.vrc, or other src variants, and injected them into athymic, nude mice. Table 2 shows that murine cells expressing 1702m- or \51src were partially transformed as mon itored by focus formation and growth in soft agar. Moreover, these cells produced progressively growing tumors in nude mice, although the growth rate was slower than tumors induced by \-src. Replace ment of the relatively activated kinase domains of 1702.src and \51src with that of c-src, whose kinase activity is roughly 10-fold less, decreased but did not abrogate the transforming and tumorigenic activities of these src mutants. These results suggest that active T-cell- mediated immunity is responsible for the regression of rASV 1702- induced tumors.

DISCUSSION
