Abstract excerpt
The detection of activated protooncogenes in mouse lung tumors has led to a major advance in our understanding of carcinogenesis of the lung at the molecular level. A high frequency of activated K-ras protooncogenes has been detected in tetranitromethane (TNM)- and 1,3-butadiene-induced lung tumors in B6C3F1 mice. In the past several years, we have pursued protooncogene activation in spontaneous and chemically...
