Hamster embryo brain cells exposed in vitro for 24 hrs. to benzo (a) pyrene and then subcultivated. undergo a morphological transformation. After several passages, transformed cells are capable in most cases of inducing tumors of a special type through intraocular or intracerebral grafting. Histological characterisation of these tumors suggests that they are of glial type. Untreated control brain cells subcultivated for one year, keep their normal characteristics and do not induce tumors when grafted in Hamster.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.
