Research Abstract |
1) It was strongly suggested that a no observed effect level exists for rat liver carcinogenicity of diethylnitrosamine. 2) SCID mice proved useful for detection of 2-amino-3-methylimidazo [4,5-f] quinoline-low dose carcinogenicity. 3) Phenobarbital treatment to rats induced P450 and hydroxyradicals in the liver, resulting in increase of 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OHG) formation. 4) Further studies are required risk assessment for carcinogenesis using transgenic or knockout mice. 5) PLACE-SSCP method was examined to confirm the utility of detection for rare mutations of oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes related to cancer induction. 6) Mesurement of 8-OHG is important for risk assessment of carcinogenesis in animals.
