Abstract excerpt
The exposure of embryonic murine limbs in vitro to an activated analog of cyclophosphamide, 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide (4OOH-CPA), induced limb malformations and apoptosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the tumor suppressor/cell cycle checkpoint gene, p53, and of cell cycle arrest in the response of the limbs to cyclophosphamide. Limbs, excised on day 12 of gestation from wild-type,...
