Abstract
 
 
The human papilloma virus is known to cause certain benign lesions in man, and is suspected as an aetiological factor in some other tumours where occasional carcinomatous change is known to occur. Investigations into this subject have been limited because no means of propagating the virus outside its natural host are yet available.
 
Techniques for demonstrating the virus in tissues, and results of the examinction of different types of wart are discussed. The demonstration of antibodies to the virus by precipitation in gel diffusion tests and by complement fixation is described. Some features of these antibodies, and also of antigens prepared from different types of wart are noted. The nature of further studies, directed particularly towards identifying virus- induced tumour antigens is indicated.
