Abstract excerpt
Comparison of results derived from transgenic animal gene-mutation assays with those from mutation analyses in endogenous genes is an important step in the validation of the former. We have used lambda lacZ transgenic mice to study alkylation-induced mutagenesis in vivo in (a) lacZ and hprt in spleen cells, and (b) lacZ and Dlb-I in small intestine from lambda lacZ+/0/Dlb-Ia/b mice. Induction of mutations by...
