Abstract excerpt
The hypothesis that activation of the signal transduction pathways by environmental stress may lead to genetic instability was tested. Mouse T-lymphoma cells, GRSL13, were treated with the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). The induction of transcription of c-fos, fosB, c-jun, junB and collagenase was studied as well as the mutation rate in the progeny of treated cells. It was found that...
