Resistance to chemically-induced mammary tumors in Copenhagen X nude-derived F2 athymic rats: evidence that T-cell immunity is not involved in Copenhagen resistance.

abstract：:Previous studies have demonstrated that O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is a major contributor to tumor cellular resistance toward chloroethylnitrosoureas. To further clarify the effect of MGMT gene expression on cellular chemosensitivity to 1-(4-amino-2-methyl-5-pyrimidinyl)-3-(2-chloroethyl)-3-nitrosou...
