Methylnitrosourea 4-7 prolactin Rattus norvegicus 71-91 7628401-7 1995 Immunoreactive PRL was detected in the NMU-induced tumors. Methylnitrosourea 39-42 prolactin Rattus norvegicus 15-18 7628401-10 1995 In summary, we showed that NMU-induced mammary tumors express mRNA for PRL and PRL receptor.

Methylnitrosourea 78-81 HRas proto-oncogene, GTPase Rattus norvegicus 17-22 8001265-10 1994 The present study thus suggested that while an additional single treatment with MNU of rats bearing BBN-induced bladder neoplasias is associated with significant, possibly mutation-dependent tumor progression, H-ras mutations are not necessary events. Methylnitrosourea 80-83 HRas proto-oncogene, GTPase Rattus norvegicus 210-215 7882901-5 1994 When tested by RIA or by the Nb2 bioassay, there appeared to be approximately 50% less PRL secreted (2 weeks post-injection) by cells of the NMU-treated than the vehicle-treated animals. Methylnitrosourea 141-144 prolactin Rattus norvegicus 87-90 7882901-6 1994 However, when tested by IL-2R assay, PRL cells of NMU-treated animals secreted 50% more activity. Methylnitrosourea 50-53 prolactin Rattus norvegicus 37-40 7882901-9 1994 Our interpretation is that NMU treatment interferes with the feedback of lymphokines on the pituitary with a decrease in the form of PRL detected by the RIA and Nb2 assays and an increase in the form which activates splenocytes, and thus changes the composition and function of the immune system. Methylnitrosourea 27-30 prolactin Rattus norvegicus 133-136 7937892-2 1994 Utilizing this system, we reported earlier that mammary tumors induced in vitro with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea in the presence of mammogenic hormones (progesterone and prolactin) contain predominately an activated c-Ki-ras protooncogene with a G35 --> A35 transitional mutation in the 12th codon.

Methylnitrosourea 44-47 GTPase KRas Mesocricetus auratus 96-101 7923593-5 1994 However, when cells were exposed to 0.125, 0.25 or 0.5 mM MNU daily for 5 days (short-treatment schedule), mutations of K-ras at codon 13 were identified in four of 16 tumors, the remaining 12 showing no mutations. Methylnitrosourea 58-61 GTPase KRas Mesocricetus auratus 120-125 7923593-7 1994 The current experiments demonstrate that K-ras mutation in pancreatic carcinogenesis in vitro by MNU or HPNU can be modified by the nature and dose of the carcinogen as well as the frequency and duration of exposure. Methylnitrosourea 97-100 GTPase KRas Mesocricetus auratus 41-46 8062258-2 1994 Previous studies have shown that single doses of MNU administered to adult mice induced thymic lymphomas in over 80% of mice, while transgenic mice expressing high levels of the human O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase gene in the thymus (MGMT-CD2 transgenics) were protected from developing MNU-induced lymphomas.

Methylnitrosourea 61-64 CD2 antigen Mus musculus 200-203 8062258-8 1994 Our data establish that rapid O6-methylguanine-DNA adduct repair due to enhanced levels of alkyltransferase in MGMT-CD2-transgenic mice blocks the initiation of MNU-induced carcinogenesis. Methylnitrosourea 161-164 O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase Mus musculus 111-115 8062258-8 1994 Our data establish that rapid O6-methylguanine-DNA adduct repair due to enhanced levels of alkyltransferase in MGMT-CD2-transgenic mice blocks the initiation of MNU-induced carcinogenesis.

Methylnitrosourea 26-29 hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 Rattus norvegicus 47-51 8162597-13 1994 These results indicate that MNU and ENU induce different mutational spectra in vivo and that DNA repair systems remove O6-methylguanine, O2, and/or O4-ethylthymidine much faster from the transcribed strand than the nontranscribed strand of the hprt gene in these rat fibroblasts. Methylnitrosourea 28-31 hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 Rattus norvegicus 244-248 8170982-0 1994 N-nitroso-N-methylurea-induced rat mammary tumors arise from cells with preexisting oncogenic Hras1 gene mutations.
