Simian sarcoma virus type I (SSV-I/SSAV-I) induced syncytia formation in human cells derived from malignant tumors (KB, HEp-2 and HeLa cells) and human cells transformed by tumor viruses (RSa, RSb and KC cells) as well as rat XC cells. However, SSV-I/SSAV-I did not induce syncytia formation in human cells derived from
