Abstract excerpt
By analysis of skin tumors from F1 hybrid mice we demonstrated that the genetic events that occur during tumor progression depend on the type of chemical carcinogenesis protocol used to induce tumor growth. More than 95% of tumors induced by initiation with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) and promotion with 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) exhibited mutations in Ha-ras and trisomy of chromosome...
