Immunization of hamsters with purified BK virus (BKV) followed by transplantation of BKV-induced hamster tumour cells revealed a tumour specific transplantation antigen (TSTA) in these cells. The antigen did not cross-react with the TSTA of SV40 since immunization with BKV did not protect against challenge of SV40 tumour cells.
用纯化的BK病毒(BKV)免疫仓鼠,然后移植BKV诱导的仓鼠肿瘤细胞,结果显示这些细胞中存在肿瘤特异性移植抗原(TSTA)。该抗原与SV40的TSTA无交叉反应,因为用BKV免疫不能抵御SV40肿瘤细胞的攻击。
