NNK carcinogenesis bioassay schemes. In Experiment 1, A-C/EBP+ and – mice were intraperitoneally administered NNK or PBS at 6 and 7 weeks of age, a half of which were kept under normal diet while the other half under DOX diet until necropsy that was carried out at 52 weeks post 1st NNK administration. In Experiment 2, A-C/EBP+ and – mice were intraperitoneally administered NNK at 6 and 7 weeks of age. They were maintained under regular diet for 52 weeks after 1st NNK administration; half remained under regular diet while the other received DOX diet for additional 10 weeks. They were subjected to necropsy at 62 weeks post 1st NNK administration.
