Abstract excerpt
In our previous study, Dark-Agouti (DA) rats were found to be highly susceptible to 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO)-induced tongue carcinoma (TC), whereas Wistar / Furth (WF) rats were barely susceptible. Interval mapping analysis of reciprocal backcross rats showed two quantitative trait loci (QTL) on rat chromosomes (RNO) 1 and 19. In the present study, a composite interval mapping analysis was applied to...
