Transplacental mutagenicity of cisplatin: H-ras codon 12 and 13 mutations in skin tumors of SENCAR mice.
Cisplatin is an anticancer agent sometimes used in pregnant women. It is also a potent initiator of skin tumors in mice when administered transplacentally. For characterization of the transplacental mutagenicity of cisplatin, tumors initiated in fetal skin by cisplatin or 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) and promoted by postnatal 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) were analyzed fo...
متن کاملTransplacental carcinogenicity of cisplatin: initiation of skin tumors and induction of other preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions in SENCAR mice.
cis-Dichlorodiammineplatinum (cis-DDP), an anticancer agent sometimes used in pregnant women for the treatment of malignant ovarian and uterine tumors, was tested for transplacental carcinogenic and/or tumor-initiating effects in SENCAR mice. Pregnant mice were given a single i.p. injection of either cis-DDP (7.5 mg/kg body weight) in 2.5% NaCl or the same weight-adjusted volume of NaCl (5 ml/k...
متن کاملKRAS Codon 12 and 13 Mutations in Gastric Cancer in the Northeast Iran
Background & objective: KRAS mutations are reported in many types of cancers including pancreas, lung, colon, breast, and gastric (GC). High frequency of KRAS mutation is observed in the pancreas, colon, and lung cancers; they commonly arise in codon 12 and 13 of exon 2. Due to the lack of information about the frequency of KRAS</...
متن کاملPeutz-Jeghers polyps, dysplasia, and K-ras codon 12 mutations.
BACKGROUND Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is a rare, autosomal dominant, polyposis syndrome, associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal and extragastrointestinal malignancy. Occasionally dysplasia occurs in PJS polyps. AIMS In colorectal carcinomas, mutations in codon 12 of the K-ras oncogene are common and are found at similar frequency in precursor adenomas. Therefore, K-ras codon ...
متن کاملK-ras oncogene codon 12 point mutations in testicular cancer.
A significant association between N-ras oncogene activating point mutations and testicular cancer has recently been reported. We have studied DNA samples from the blood and fresh tumor tissues of 17 Norwegian testicular cancer patients (11 seminomas/6 nonseminomas). Point mutations in K-ras-2 and N-ras exons 1 and 2 were studied by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and by oligonucl...
