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/NJcl (ACI) rats show persistent and strong cell proliferation in response to gastric mucosal damage by MNNG while BUF/NacJcl (BUF) rats show transient and limited cell proliferation. This difference is considered as one of the mechanisms for the high...
