Abstract
Diethylstillboestrol, a synthetic and carcinogenic hormone, binds to DNA as a result of incubation with a liver microsomal preparation in vitro and on incubation with primary mouse foetal cells in culture. Enzymic digestion of DNA samples thus prepared gives several covalent deoxyribonucleoside-diethylstilboestrol products from the microsomal system. One of these is produced in small but significant yield in the tissue-culture system.Keywords
