The mammalian spot test is suitable for detecting gene mutations and reciprocal recombinations. When given alone 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) did not have any statistically significant effect upon these genetic alterations. In combination with ethylnitrosourea (ENU) however TPA enhanced the effect of the mutagen/carcinogen. The effective dose range of TPA + ENU was very small, i.e., between 2 X 0.2 and 2 X 0.33 mg/kg, but the effect was very strong as shown by the steep slope of the dose-effect curve. The results agree with the hypothesis that the mode of action of cocarcinogens and tumor promoters is a genetic one and that recombination plays an important role in this process.
哺乳动物斑点试验适用于检测基因突变和相互重组。单独给予12 - O - 十四烷酰佛波醇 - 13 - 乙酸酯(TPA)时,对这些基因改变没有任何统计学上的显著影响。然而,与乙基亚硝基脲(ENU)联合使用时,TPA增强了诱变剂/致癌物的作用。TPA + ENU的有效剂量范围非常小,即2×0.2至2×0.33毫克/千克之间,但剂量 - 效应曲线的陡坡表明其作用非常强烈。这些结果与以下假设一致:促癌剂和肿瘤启动子的作用模式是遗传作用模式,并且重组在这一过程中起重要作用。
