Radiation-induced peculiarities of cytochrome P-450IIE1 and oncogenes mRNA accumulation in different rat tissues

V. I. Prima, L. G. Glushakova

Cytochrome CYP2E1 gene as well as c-fos and c-myc oncogenes expression have been studied in different tissues of Wistar rats kept at Chernobyl's exclusion zone. Reliable differences are revealed in above-mentioned genes expression on RNA level by comparing data obtained from experimental and control animal groups.
