    AnnotationWe have demonstrated that transient presence of non-tumorigenic stray cells in tissues of experimental animals containing cells with a sub-critical set of genetic mutations can act as a tumor-promoting stimulus. To induce somatic mutations in all chicken tissues we used MAV-2 retroviral insertion system almost exclusively generating nephroblastomas. MAV-2 mutagenized animals inoculated with non-malignant cells developed early clonal lung tumors prior to nephroblastomas. Importantly, injected cells did not become a component of resultant tumors. Lung tumors displayed specific mutational signature characterized by insertion of MAV-2 provirus into frk promoter resulting in over-expression of gene frk. In contrast, plag1, foxP1 and twist genes were most often mutagenized in nephroblastomas. We propose the mechanism termed industasis, a promotion of fully malignant phenotype of incipient tumor cell by stray cells, and hypothesize that it might be a cause of human multiple primary tumors.
