A linear relationship was observed between the administered dose and DNA adduct levels in the livers and bladders of BALB/c mice fed the carcinogen, 2-acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF), continuously for one month. A similar linear correlation was found between the probit of the liver tumour incidence and the log of the liver DNA adduct levels; however, because there is a no-observable-effect level for bladder tumour induction, the relationship between the probit of the bladder tumour incidence and bladder DNA adduct levels was not linear. These data suggest that the relationship between DNA adduct formation and tumour incidence may be tissue specific.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
