N1 - To elucidate the role gap junctions play in the bystander effect, we examined the cytotoxic effect of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSVtk) modified tumor cells on gap junction communication-deficient tumor cells and their connexin transfectants. Communication competent Walker 256 tumor cell ...
