Abstract excerpt
In the processes of carcinogenesis caused by genotoxic carcinogens, DNA-adduct formation and resultant genetic changes are crucially important. In this report, the relationship between DNA-adduct levels and mutant frequencies (MFs), DNA-adduct levels and cancer incidences, and MFs and cancer incidences induced by heterocyclic amines (HCAs), to which humans are exposed on daily basis were investigated. There was...
