The hepatocarcinogens 2-nitropropane and acetoxime have previously been found to induce a specific and qualitatively identical pattern of base damage in rat liver DNA and RNA, including the induction of increased levels of 8-hydroxyguanine. Because both 2-nitropropane and acetoxime are
We tested the ability of phenobarbital and two liver carcinogens, acetoxime and 1-nitroso-5,6-dihydrouracil (NDHU), to induce hyperplastic liver nodules (HLN) in MRC-Wistar and Wistar rats, using a system that included a single diethylnitrosamine (DEN) treatment, partial hepatectomy, and administration of

Previously, the secondary nitroalkane 2-nitropropane, a strong hepatocarcinogen in rats, had been shown to induce the formation of 8-aminoguanine in both DNA and RNA of rat liver through a sulfotransferase-mediated pathway. This pathway was postulated to convert the carcinogen into

Acetoxime was tested for carcinogenicity by chronic administration in the drinking water to male and female outbred MRC-Wistar rats. The dose of 1.0 g/liter was administered 5 days/week for 18 months (total dose, 6.2--7.0 g/rat). The test compound induced benign
The industrial solvent 2-nitropropane (2-NP) is a genotoxic hepatocarcinogen in rats. The genotoxicity of the compound in rats has been attributed to sulfotransferase-mediated formation of DNA-reactive nitrenium ions from the anionic form of 2-NP, propane 2-nitronate (P2N). Whether human sulfotransferases
