title: Methylglyoxal-induced mutation to 6-thioguanine resistance in V79 cells.
abstract: Methylglyoxal, at concentrations ranging from 0.16 to 1.5 mM, caused a dose-dependent increase in the frequency of HGPRT-deficient mutants in V79 cells. Its mutagenic activity was reduced when V79 cells were co-cultured with freshly isolated rat hepatocytes.
