Established osteoblast-like (OB) cells infected with the bone tumor-inducing C-type retrovirus OA MuLV remained nontumorigenic over 104 cell culture passages. DNA histograms revealed a new cell population with a stem line peak at 5c. A second OA MuLV-infected OB cell line underwent neoplastic transformation with increasing passage level. These cells showed diffuse aneuploidy. Stepwise linear discriminant analysis of the chromatin structure of control, OA MuLV-infected, and FBR osteosarcoma virus-transformed cell lines resulted in various levels of discrimination ranging between 79.6% for control cells versus nontumorigenic OA MuLV-infected cells, and 96.6% for nontumorigenic OA MuLV-infected cells versus FBR osteosarcoma virus-transformed cells. OA MuLV-infected tumorigenic cells and FBR osteosarcoma virus-transformed cells were discriminated at a 93.6% level.
