Rat 3Y1 fibroblasts transformed by adenovirus type 12 or its E1A gene formed syncytia by cocultivation with Friend murine leukemia virus (MuLV)-producing cells. On the other hand, parental 3Y1 cells and those derivatives induced by other tumor viruses or chemical carcinogen showed no MuLV-mediated syncytium formation [N. Momozaki et al. (1990) Arch. Virol. 115: 123-126]. The expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I mRNA and antigens was significantly reduced in these Ad12- and E1A-transformed 3Y1 cells. In contrast, other tumor virus-and chemical carcinogen-transformed 3Y1 cells expressed MHC class I almost in normal levels as did parental 3Y1 cells. Furthermore, Ad12-transformed 3Y1 cells which started to express the transfected exogenous MHC class I gene, H-2Ld, showed no more MuLV-mediated 3Y1 cell fusion. These results indicate that the expression of MHC class I on the cell membrane is closely related to the inhibition of 3Y1 cell fusion by MuLV.
