Abstract excerpt
Although administration of a single dose of N-nitroso-N-methylurea (NMU) to young virgin rats induces a high rate of mammary carcinomas, precise histogenesis of the carcinomas has not been well characterized. In this study, we investigated the alterations of H-ras gene in early focal lesions as well as carcinomas in the mammary glands of F344 rats treated with NMU. At 2 weeks after treatment, intraductal...
