Hepatocarcinogenicity of estragole (1-allyl-4-methoxybenzene) and 1′-hydroxyestragole in the mouse and mutagenicity of 1′-acetoxyestragole in bacteria

NR Drinkwater, EC Miller, JA Miller… - Journal of the National …, 1976 - academic.oup.com
Approximately 20% of a dose of estragole, a naturally occurring flavoring agent, was excreted
in the urine of outbred male CD ® -1 mice as a conjugate (presumably the glucuronide) of …

The circadian clock plays a significant role in many aspects of female reproductive biology,
including estrous cycling, ovulation, embryonic implantation, onset of puberty, and parturition. …

Mutational activation of the c-Ha-ras gene in liver tumors of different rodent strains: correlation with susceptibility to hepatocarcinogenesis.

…, J Mahr, NR Drinkwater… - Proceedings of the …, 1991 - National Acad Sciences
The frequency and pattern of mutations at codon 61 of the c-Ha-ras gene have been analyzed
in 195 liver tumors and 132 precancerous liver lesions from various rodent strains with …

Genetic control of hepatocarcinogenesis in C57BL/6J and C3H/HeJ inbred mice

NR Drinkwater, JJ Ginsler - Carcinogenesis, 1986 - academic.oup.com
Drinkwater, in preparation). We observed that the major difference between these two
strains was in the rate of growth of the pre-neoplastic lesions; these data indicate that the Hcs …

Promotion of murine hepatocarcinogenesis by testosterone is androgen receptor-dependent but not cell autonomous.

…, CN Leary, NR Drinkwater - Proceedings of the …, 1989 - National Acad Sciences
Tfm (testicular feminization) mutant mice lack functional androgen receptors. By studying
liver tumor development in Tfm mice, we have shown that the greater susceptibility of male …

…, CJ Kemp, JJ Ginsler, NR Drinkwater - …, 1988 - academic.oup.com
We have previously shown that C3H/HeJ male mice are 20-fold more susceptible to the
induction of liver tumors by N -ethyl- N -nitrosourea (ENU) than are C57BL/6J male mice and …
