ABSTRACT
Suckling mice were more sensitive to the hepatocarcinogenic effect of various carcinogens compared to adult animals. After treatment with o-aminoazotoluene and diethylnitrosamine HNF3-DNA-binding capacity and glucocorticoid-induced liver tyrosine aminotransferase activity in suckling mice decreased more significantly than in adult animals.
