Abstract excerpt
The role of O6-methylguanine (O6MG) DNA adduct formation and persistence in the formation of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK)-induced lung tumors from resistant C57BL/6 and susceptible A/J mice was investigated. In addition, the frequencies of pulmonary tumor formation and Ki-ras activation were defined in C57BL/6 mice treated with NNK or vinyl carbamate (VC), and the role of the p53 gene in...
