Malignant transformation, confirmed by reinjection of transformed cells into syngeneic mice, has been induced by both BaP and X-irradiation in a C3H mouse embryo cell line (10T-1/2). A synergistic effect was found when both agents were given sequentially; maximum synergism occurred when 15 to 20 hours elapsed between treatments. Both survival and transformation frequency per surviving cell were enhanced by maintaining cells in conditions of growth inhibition for 4 hours after radiation, suggesting that repair processes may be involved in the transformation process. Such an in vitro transformation system, particularly involving plateau phase cultures, appears to be valuable adjunct to the study of interactions between chemical carcinogens and radiation that may occur in critical cell populations in the lung.
