Formation of 8-oxodeoxyguanosine in Brain DNA of Rats Exposed to Aacrylonituile. S cientists were curious to see if rats had possible epigenetic mechanisms. Another group of rats were exposed to zero or one hundred ppm ACN in drinking water for ninety-four days to see if this too would increase brain tumors in the rats. The researchers found that increased levels of 8-oxodoG would increase tumors in the rats.
Experiments help researchers learn more about humans, which can lead to greater living for humans.
