Abstract

The frequency of chromatid breaks associated with sister chromatid exchanges at the break point was determined in rat bone marrow cells treated in vivo with 7-12 DMBA, during the late S phase of the cell cycle. The chromosomal aberrations and SCEs were scored in the same cells. Under the experimental conditions employed, more than 40% of the chromatid breaks were found to be associated with an SCE, a frequency expected according to Revell's hypothesis for the formation of chromatid breaks.
