abstract：:raf oncogenes have been implicated in hepatic carcinogenesis. We studied the effects of the v-raf of murine retrovirus 3611-MSV on the growth and differentiation of a simian virus 40 (SV40)-immortalized rat liver cell line (ALB-8) which maintained many of characteristics of differentiated hepatocytes. Cells were co-tr...
