✦ Synopsis


The DNA of 22 fibrosarcomas, newly induced in 0ALWc mice by subcutaneous doses of 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MCA), was tested in NIH 3T3 transformation assay. Activation of K-ras and N-ras was found in 7 and 3 cases respectively.

No H-ras activation was detected. Polymerase chain reaction and oligonucleotide hybridization performed on the DNA of the 22 sarcomas revealed 5 cases of K-ras mutation at codon 12, 3 at codon 13 and I at both codons. One case of K13 ' p 4 0.005 as compared with TSTA-tumors.
