This study used tissue samples from male B6C3F1 mice treated with ethanol in drinking water (0%, 2.5%, or 5%) for 4 or 104 weeks. We tested whether chronic alcohol drinking promotes oxidative stress in the liver and characterized the mutation profile of spontaneous and ethanol-induced tumors. We show that ethanol does not cause detectable oxidative stress in the liver at any time point and acts by promoting H-ras mutated cells.
本研究使用雄性 B6C3F1 小鼠的组织样本,这些小鼠在饮用水中接受乙醇处理(0%、2.5%或 5%)4 或 104 周。我们检测了慢性饮酒是否会促进肝脏中的氧化应激,并描述了自发性和乙醇诱导肿瘤的突变谱。结果表明,乙醇在任何时间点都不会引起肝脏中可检测到的氧化应激,而是通过促进 H-ras 突变细胞起作用。
