Abstract excerpt
Rat stomach cancers induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) are widely used as a model of differentiated-type human stomach cancers. ACI/N (ACT) rats are susceptible and BUF/Nac (BUF) rats are resistant to MNNG-induced stomach carcinogenesis, and the presence of an autosomal gene with a dominant BUF allele has been suggested. In this study, we performed a carcinogenicity test by giving MNNG in...
