Abstract

We investigated whether somatic rearrangements in minisatellite DNA are more frequent in chemically induced mouse liver tumors than they are in spontaneous tumors. CD-1 mouse liver tumors were induced by either a single dose or 15 consecutive daily doses of 7,12-dimethylbenz[alpha]anthracene, 4-aminoazobenzene, N-hydroxy-2-acetyl-aminofluorene or diethylnitrosoamine (DEN). Using DNA fingerprinting analysis, we found that the single- and multiple-dose carcinogen treatments caused a 2- to 5-fold higher frequency of minisatellite DNA rearrangements compared with that found in spontaneous tumors--with the exception of single-dose DEN tumors, which showed no increase in rearrangements. Our results suggest that DNA fingerprinting may be a valuable assay for differentiating certain chemically induced tumors from spontaneous tumors.
