3,2'-Dimethyl-4-aminobiphenyl (DMAB), known to be a wide-spectrum genotoxic carcinogen in rats, is also tumorigenic to hamster organs such as the forestomach, small and large intestines, gallbladder and urinary bladder. Using a specific antibody against DMAB-DNA adducts, adduct formation in various organs of Syrian golden hamsters after single s.c., i.g. or i.p. injections of DMAB was immunohistochemically examined in relation to its carcinogenic specificity. The nuclei of basal cells of forestomach, epithelia of small intestine, large intestine, gallbladder and urinary bladder of hamsters were stained to various degrees. However, no differences in the formation of DMAB-DNA adducts were observed between these and non-target organs regarding carcinogenicity. The staining intensity after i.g. or i.p. injections was slightly stronger than after s.c. injection. In line with previous findings for rats, the present results indicate that adduct formation is necessary but not itself sufficient for tumor induction in the Syrian golden hamster.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
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).

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
