A molecular approach to leukemogenesis: mouse lymphomas contain an activated c-ras oncogene.
Open accessAbstract
By inducing mouse thymomas with carcinogens and gamma-radiation, we have studied the potential of tumor DNA to induce foci in rodent fibroblasts. A high percentage of the tumors used transformed the cultured cells, and the oncogenic phenotype segregated with extra copies of the c-ras gene family. There appears to be selectivity in the activated gene because so far all analyzed tumors induced by carcinogen have activated the N-ras gene, and those induced by radiation have activated the K-ras gene. The K-ras gene is the cellular counterpart of the viral ras oncogene in Kirsten murine sarcoma virus, but the N-ras has not yet been found in a retrovirus. The transformed cells have a marked increase in expression of the oncogene at the RNA and protein level. This model system might be a powerful tool in the study of leukemogenesis.

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.
