Abstract excerpt
Bladder tumors were induced in male F344/NCr rats by administration of N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN) at 500 p.p.m. in their drinking water for 12 weeks. Twenty-one bladder tumors that developed between 25 and 50 weeks after BBN administration was begun were evaluated for immunoreactivity with polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies raised against ras p21, for amplification of ras genes by Southern...
