Detection of DNA adducts by 32P postlabeling following chronic exposure of rats to snuff
Abstract
A surgically created canal was used as a reservoir for instillation of snuff into the lower lip of rats for 10 weeks. DNA was isolated and digested with micrococcal nuclease/spleen phosphodiesterase. Polar DNA adducts were detected in all tissues examined when digests were fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), 32P postlabeled, 3' dephosphorylated and analyzed by two-dimensional thin layer chromatography (TLC). DNA adducts derived from aromatic carcinogens were not detected when digests were 32P postlabeled and analyzed by four-dimensional thin layer chromatography. These results suggest that non-aromatic agents initiate carcinogenesis following exposure to snuff. The adduction to DNA in organs of the gastrointestinal tract and the kidneys indicates that snuff usage results in systemic exposure to carcinogens and may contribute to the incidence of neoplasms in organs outside the oral cavity.

Toxicological assessment indicates activation of DNA damage, oxidative stress, and inflammatory response after snus and TF-ONPs exposure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
