Abstract excerpt
Liver tumors of certain strains of mice frequently contain mutations at codon 61 of the c-Ha-ras gene. In our study, we investigated the significance of these mutations in the carcinogenic process. Male C3H/He mice received a single injection of diethylnitrosamine (DEN) on day 15 after birth, and groups of animals were killed at various time intervals between 11 and 52 wk after treatment. At the earlier time...
