  • Title: [Pathogenesis of human cancer].
    Author: Kitagawa T.
    Journal: Hum Cell; 1991 Mar; 4(1):1-12. PubMed ID: 1653595.
    Abstract:
    The multistep aspects of carcinogenesis including initiation and promotion problems in both human and experimental hepatocarcinogenesis are discussed, especially in terms of oncogene and antioncogene changes. It is shown that the H-ras activation may be an event occurring in relatively late phase of carcinogenesis in the mouse systems, and that hepatitis B integration frequently causes host chromosomal rearrangement possibly leading to inactivation of cancer suppressor genes. In addition, significance of endogenously-produced nitrosamines in hepatocarcinogenesis is pointed out.
