The induction and nature of mutations in the lacI transgene were evaluated in multiple tissues after exposure of adult male B6C3F1 lacI transgenic mice to cyclophosphamide (CP). Mice were given a single i.p. injection of 25 mg CP/kg, 100 mg CP/kg, or vehicle (PBS) and then necropsied 6 weeks after t
We determined the spectrum of mutations in the lacI gene in the liver of Big Blueเฎพ transgenic mice after exposure to five daily doses of 2 mg/kg dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) at 3 and 6 weeks of age. This dose has been reported to increase the mutant frequency 9-fold when the animals are 3 weeks old. Th
Transgenic mice are widely used to detect gene mutations in vivo induced by a variety of chemicals. It is known, however, that no mutagenicity of methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) is detected in epididymal sperm in various transgenic mice assays, although MMS induces the dominant lethal and specific loc
Transgenic mice carrying multiple copies of a recoverable h phage shuttle vector carrying the supF mutation reporter gene (hsupF) were constructed for the purpose of studying mutagenesis in a whole animal. Spontaneous mutations in rescued supF target genes from mouse liver and skin were analyzed. Th
