Abstract excerpt
Point mutation and activation of c-Ha-ras oncogene was studied at various stages of carcinogenesis in cell lines developed from MNU-treated human pancreas explants. DNAs from normal pancreas and nontumorigenic cell lines showed no transforming activity in NIH 3T3 cells whereas DNA from one of the...
