The terms genotoxic and non-genotoxic are used increasingly to distinguish rodent carcinogens that are overtly DNA-reactive and mutagenic from those that appear to induce cancer by other mechanisms. There are, however, no universally agreed definitions of these terms . Initial discussions centred on

Mechanical wounding provides a convertogenic ("stage I tumor-promoting") stimulus in initiated NMRI mouse skin, indicating that this stage of carcinogenesis can be entirely controlled by endogenous factors. A search for such factors led to the finding that both platelet-derived Epstein-Barrvirus-ind
## Abstract Mammary tumors in mice may arise as the result of exogenous infection with the mouse mammary tumor virus [MMTV(S)], usually via the milk; by the action of endogenous MMTV genes which are transmitted genetically and are sometimes expressed as infectious virus [MMTV(L)]; or by the action
## Abstract ## Background and Objective Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the second most common skin cancer, usually remains confined to the epidermis for some time but eventually penetrates the underlying tissues, if left untreated. The nonβinvasive early detection of the SCC is important for appro
