Abstract excerpt
Urothelial cell cultures generated from urinary bladders from a series of N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN)- or N-[4-(5-nitro-2-furanyl)-2-thiazolyl]formamide (FANFT)-treated Fischer 344 rats were examined for activating missense mutations in Ha-ras-1 genes. Our overall objective was to identify oncogene-activating mutations in this system and to determine what altered biological properties correlate...
