Abstract excerpt
Rat experimental models using N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN) as an initiating agent have been widely used to study carcinogenic processes in the urinary bladder. In this study, early neoplastic lesions from 10 male F344 rats treated with 0.05% BBN for 16 weeks were analyzed for changes in the H-ras or p53 genes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis...
