Abstract excerpt
Methylation of liver and nasal mucosal DNA at the O6 position of guanine (O6-MeG) was measured in intact and castrated male rats after a dose of N-nitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP) (20 mg/kg; i.p.). There were no differences in O6-MeG persistence in liver DNA from either group. In the nasal mucosa more O6-MeG was detected in DNA from intact rats than in that from castrated rats. The maximum values were 61...
