Abstract excerpt
Treatment of rats with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) and testosterone results in a high incidence of metastasizing dorsolateral prostate tumors. In previous studies, a high frequency (> or = 70%) of a G35 --> A transition mutation at the second position of codon 12 of the Ki-ras oncogene was found in these tumors. This was confirmed in the study reported here, and the frequency of this mutation appeared similar in...
