## Abstract As part of an evaluation of the effectiveness of using __ras__ mutation analysis for distinguishing carcinogen‐induced from spontaneous tumors, we examined the profile of __ras__ gene point mutations in spontaneous, 7,12‐dimethylbenz[__a__]anthracene (DMBA)‐induced, and N‐nitrosodiethyl

A high frequency of point mutations at codon 12 of the Ki-ras gene has previously been reported for rat kidney mesenchymal tumors induced by methylating N-nitroso compounds. In this study, we analyzed renal tumors with divergent histogenesis, i.e., mesenchymal tumors (sarcomas), cortical epithelial
Ki-ras and p53 genes are involved in human lung carcinogenesis; however, the role of these genes in experimental lung tumors is not well known. In our study, the CBA/J mouse strain was used to investigate the presence of Ki-ras and p53 alterations in lung carcinogenesis of spontaneous tumors and tum
## Abstract An in vitro cell model of mouse lung alveologenic carcinoma consisting of preneoplastic nonmalignant cells, spontaneously transformed cells, and urethane‐induced malignant cells was analyzed for phenotypic and genotypic changes associated with the transition to neoplasia. The polymerase
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 b
## Abstract Transplacental carcinogenesis represents a good model in which to study the involvement of tissue‐specific oncogene activation in carcinogenesis because a single exposure to a carcinogen induces tumors at various sites. We tested tumors of the skin, liver, and lung produced in mice afte
