abstract：:A body of indirect evidence has suggested the involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tumor promotion. However, direct evidence for the involvement of in situ generated ROS in tumor promotion is lacking at present. This study provides the first in situ evidence for the involvement of ROS in stage I tumor promo...
