[Proto-oncogene expression in the liver of male rats of different age].

The expression of 10 protooncogenes has been quantitatively studied in liver of male rats L10 age of 1, 10.5, 22 and 37 months. It was shown that a number of specific mRNA transcripts and, therefore, the levels of expression of protooncogenes C-MYC, C-FOS, N-MYC, HA-RAS, KI-RAS, SIS, ABL, YES, MOS and MET in rat liver were constant during life span. These data are in accordance with resistance of the rat strain L10 to spontaneous hepatocarcinogenesis.
