Abstract excerpt
A number of cancer genes have been identified by the study of hereditary human cancers and shown to be involved in sporadic genesis of the same tumors. We have identified a germline mutation in the rat homologue of the human tuberous sclerosis (TSC2) predisposing gene in the Eker rat model. In this study, we searched for mutations of the Tsc2 gene in chemically induced non-Eker rat renal cell carcinomas (RCs)....
