Abstract excerpt
In standard mouse strains, a high proportion (more than 90%) of epidermal tumors produced by initiation with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene and promotion with a variety of chemical agents contain an activating mutation in codon 61 (A182-->T) of the c-Ha-ras gene. We analyzed the ras mutational spectra in 69 tumors induced by DMBA in a unique transgenic model, the K6/ODC mouse. In this model, low-dose DMBA...
