Newborn hMT-fos-LTR transgenic C3H mice and their non-transgenic siblings were infected with Akv, derived from the ecotropic provirus of the AKR mouse. Bone sarcomas in non-infected transgenics were observed in 20% (3/15) of females at 448 +/- 25 days and in 8% (1/12) of males at 523 days. Akv-infected transgenics developed bone tumors with higher frequency and at younger age: Females in 69% (20/28) at 268 +/- 122 days, males in 83% (24/29) at 279 +/- 109 days. In the majority of the bone tumors of Akv-infected transgenics (70% in females, 59% in males) cellular atypia was lacking and the histological pattern resembled human parosteal osteosarcoma. Only 50% (12/24) of bone tumors in Akv-infected transgenics revealed newly integrated virus sequences by Southern analysis. PCR analysis detected Akv sequences in DNAs of all tumors. Obviously, the insertion of Akv in a few cells induced the considerably accelerated bone tumor growth.
