Abstract
Colorectal cancer may now be induced consistently in experimental animals by the carcinogen 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). Adenomas and adenocarcinomas are produced in the large bowel and these resemble human colorectal cancer both macroscopically, and in their clinical behaviour. They are a close model of human disease and may be used for the evaluation of anti-cancer therapies and for the development of a diagnostic test for colorectal cancer.Entities:
