Abstract excerpt
New transplantable rat mammary tumor lines derived from 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracence (DMBA)- and N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU)-induced carcinogenesis were established and characterized for biological and morphological criteria in the course of multiple tumor generations growing in female or male Wistar rats. DMBA-derived tumors RMT-1, RMT-2 and RMT-3 converted from adenocarcinoma to fibrosarcoma in the early...
