Phenolphthalein Induces Thymic Lymphomas Accompanied by Loss of the p53 Wild Type Allele in Heterozygous p53-Deficient (±) Mice
1 Nov 1997
Abstract excerpt
Epidemiology studies have indicated that many human cancers are influenced by environmental factors. Genetically altered mouse model systems offer us the opportunity to study the interaction of chemicals with genetic predisposition to cancer. Using the heterozygous p53-deficient (+/-) mouse, an animal model carrying one wild type p53 gene and one p53 null allele, we studied the effects of phenolphthalein on tumor...
