Abstract excerpt
To clarify the role of 8-OHdG formation as a starting point for carcinogenesis, we examined the dose-dependence and time-course of changes of OGG1 mRNA expression, 8-OHdG levels and in vivo mutations in the kidneys of gpt delta rats given KBrO3 in their drinking water for 13 weeks. There were no remarkable changes in OGG1 mRNA in spite of some increments being statistically significant. Increases of 8-OHdG...
