Nucleic acids from subcellular fractions of N-nitrosodiethylamine-induced hepatoma in mice. II. Changes in gene expression during tumor progression

Abstract

The hybridization properties of in vivo labeled nuclear and mitochondrial ribonucleic acids of an transplantable hepatoma were studied. It was shown that during tumor progression the repression of nuclear genome revelead at its early stages was replaced by the de-repression at its later stages. The hybridizability of mitochondrial RNA with nuclear DNA was not changed.
