Zinc intake, neoplastic DNA synthesis, and chemical carcinogenesis in rats and mice
Journal of the National Cancer Institute
|July 1, 1975
Abstract:
DNA synthesis in a transplanted hepatoma induced by 3'-methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene was significantly reduced (P less than 0.01) in rats maintained on diets low (0.4 mug/g) or high (greater than or equal to 500 mug/g) in zinc when compared with control animals given 60 mug zinc/g. 3-Methylcholanthrene-induced carcinogenesis was considerably lowered in mice receiving the same low or high zinc diets during the induction periods.
