The peroxisome proliferator WY-14,643 promotes hepatocarcinogenesis caused by endogenously generated oxidative DNA base modifications in repair-deficient Csbm/m/Ogg1-/- mice.

Abstract excerpt

Basal levels of endogenously generated oxidative DNA modifications such as 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) are present in apparently all mammalian cells, but their relevance for the generation of spontaneous cancers remains to be established. Both the 8-oxoG levels and the resulting spontaneous...
