A murine helper/inducer T cell clone, D10.G4, has been infected with Kirsten-murine sarcoma virus (KiSV) pseudotyped with an amphotropic murine leukemia virus. The resultant Ki-ras-expressing lines (KiSV-D10) remain dependent on exogenous factors for continued growth but display distinctly different mitotic responses to certain cytokines as compared to the uninfected parent clone. Unlike the parent D10.G4 cells, these KiSV-D10 cells can be maintained in vitro indefinitely in the presence of recombinant interleukin 2 (IL 2), and they all display a maximal proliferative response to purified or recombinant interleukin 1 (IL 1). The IL 1-induced proliferation is shown not to be dependent or secretion of the T cell autocrine growth factors IL 2 or B cell stimulatory factor-1 (BSF-1). The KiSV-D10 lines show certain differences from one another and parent D10.G4 cells in their secretory and proliferative responses to T cell receptor- and BSF-1 mediated signals. These viral oncogene-expressing T cell lines, which remain responsive to and dependent on physiologic growth factors, should prove valuable for analyzing the mechanisms of action of single oncogenes and the intracellular events in T lymphocyte activation.
