Abstract excerpt
The induction of transplacental carcinogenesis by 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) in mice is determined, in part, by the genotype at the Ah locus. The relationship of Ah genotype and MC-induced DNA adducts was tested by comparing the response of pregnant and fetal C57BL/6 mice (Ahb Ahb; responsive to the induction of MC metabolism) and DBA/2mice (Ahd Ahd; nonresponsive). On day 17 of gestation (day 1 = presence of...
