Abstract excerpt
In this study, lung lesions were found in male A/J mice 24 wk after intraperitoneal injection of 1-nitropyrene (1-NP). The lesions were classified into three categories: alveolar/bronchiolar hyperplasia, adenoma, and adenocarcinoma. The proliferation kinetics of cells in the lesions were evaluated by assessing proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression and silver-staining nucleolar organizer regions...
