In contrast to most cells of mouse origin, cell lines derived from
mouse epidermis are permissive for replication of human adenovirus type

level of E1A expression and virus replication. Mouse epidermal cells
may provide useful models for cancer therapy using
replication-competent human adenoviruses.
