## Abstract Four different dihydrodiols derived from 7βmethylbenz(a)anthracene have been tested, together with the parent hydrocarbon, for their ability to induce the __in vitro__ malignant transformation of mouse M2 fibroblasts and mutations in V79 Chinese hamster cells. In the transformation test
Estrogenicity is an important mechanism in hormonal carcinogenesis but not sufficient to explain the carcinogenic activity of all estrogens. Additional mechanisms, related to genetic alterations, in conjunction with estrogenicity mediated through the estrogen receptor, have been suggested. An enviro
