Seroepidemiological studies imply a correlation between Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation and the development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). N-nitroso compounds, phorbols, and butyrates are chemicals found in food and herb samples collected from NPC high-risk areas. These chemicals have been reported to be risk factors contributing to the development of NPC, however, the underlying mech...

Carcinogen treatment of normal mouse epidermal cells causes some cells, if cultured under the appropriate conditions, to continue to proliferate instead of terminally differentiate, forming foci at 37 degrees C in medium with a calcium level above 0.1 mM. We have examined these Calcium (Ca)-resistant cells formed in the skin of SENCAR mice after treatment with the carcinogen initiator 7,12-dime...
To investigate anticancer effect of lycopene, we examined the effects of lycopene on the oxidative injury and immunity activities of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced gastric cancer rats. The animals were divided into five groups. Group I served as the normal control and was given corn oil orally for 20 weeks. Group II were induced with MNNG 200 mg/kg body weight by oral gavag...
Methylating agents such as N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and methyl methane sulfonate (MMS) produce a wide variety of N- and O-methylated bases in DNA, some of which can block replication fork progression. Homologous recombination is a mechanism by which chromosome replication can proceed despite the presence of lesions. The two major recombination pathways, RecBCD and RecFOR, whi...
DNA mismatch repair (MMR) sensitizes human and Escherichia coli dam cells to the cytotoxic action of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) while abrogation of such repair results in drug resistance. In DNA methylated by MNNG, MMR action is the result of MutS recognition of O6-methylguanine base pairs. MutS and Ada methyltransferase compete for the MNNG-induced O6-methylguanine residues, a...
N-Methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG, "nitrosoguanidine") has been extensively used as an effective mutagen for DNA-containing organisms and virusesl-4 but appears not to have been used with RNA viruses. Nothing definitive seems to have been reported about its mode of action. This paper deals with the effects of MNNG on the infectivity, mutation frequency, and base composition of tobacco ...
A number of possible preventive agents for cancers in different organs have been reported, however, little information is available regarding the effective agents for the development of gastric cancers. The rice components are known to be effective for the prevention of the development of cancers. Our group has demonstrated that fermented brown rice by Aspergillus Orzae (FBRA) has chemopreventi...
O(6)-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) is a suicide protein that corrects DNA damage by alkylating agents and may also serve to activate environmental carcinogens. We expressed human wild-type and two active mutant AGTs in bacteria that lack endogenous AGT and are also defective in nucleotide excision repair, to examine the ability of the AGTs to protect Escherichia coli from DNA damage b...
Gastric cancers are a significant cause of morbidity worldwide. Epidemiological studies and animal models show that males have higher incidences of gastric cancers compared with females, suggesting that sex hormones may modulate gastric cancer risk. An animal model of the initiation phase of gastric cancer was used to determine the effects of systemic estrogen administration on morphological pr...
