Abstract excerpt
In this study, rat embryo lung organ cultures were exposed to benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P). After carcinogen-treatment the cells were dissociated and an epithelial cell line (BP) was developed from the primary cell culture derived from the carcinogen-treated explants. Investigations were performed on t...
