Abstract excerpt
To elucidate whether the M6p/Igf2 receptor (M6p/Igf2r) gene might be involved in exogenous and endogenous liver carcinogenesis, we investigated its alteration in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) induced by N-nitrosodiethylamine (DEN) and by a choline-deficient L-amino acid-defined (CDAA) diet in rats. Male F344 rats, 6 wk old, received a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of DEN at a dose of 10 mg/kg body...
