Reactive oxygen species formation is strongly suspected to play a role in multistep carcinogenesis, notably in tumor promotion. The tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induces peroxide production, oxidative damage to DNA and inflammation in mouse skin. TPA is also known to caus

Transgenic mice expressing the simian virus 40 large T-antigen (TAG) under the regulatory control of the rat prostatic steroid binding protein C3(1) gene develop mammary carcinomas (in females) and prostate carcinomas (in males). The development of carcinomas occurs several months after the appearan
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and its receptor are believed to play an important role in mitogenesis and neoplastic transformation. The purpose of this study was to further examine the role of IGF-1 during tumor promotion in mouse skin. HK1.IGF1 transgenic mice, which overexpress IGF-1 in epi
