In our studies, enzymes believed to be directly associated with the electron flow chain of NADPH, ferricyanide reduction, cytochrome c, cytochrome P-450 and substrate hydroxylation have been observed in livers obtained from normal, tumor-bearing and whole body irradiated rats as well as in Morris hepatoma 7777 and dimethyl-amino-biphenyl induced breast tumors. This evidence concerns the gene CYCS and breast neoplasm.
