Human teratoma cell culture system for the prescreening of environmental chemicals that may initiate or promote tumor formation

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6595633
A cell clone, P3, from a human teratocarcinoma cell line was isolated and characterized for use as targets in mutagenesis studies to identify potential carcinogens and elucidate the genetic events most likely to result in malignant transformation. Human breast carcinoma BJ cells were incorporated into the P3 system to supply the necessary enzymes for chemical activation. 51 references, 3 figures, 3 tables. (ACR)
