title: 1,2-diallylhydrazine dihydrochloride carcinogenesis in mice.
abstract: Continuous administration of 0.0625% 1,2-diallylhydrazine dihydrochloride in drinking water for life to 6-week-old randomly bred to Swiss mice induced lung tumors. In comparison with the untreated controls, the lung tumor incidence rose from 25 to 80% in the females and from 26 to 80% in the males. The treatment had no apparent effect on the development of other tumor types. Histopathologically, the lesions were classified as adenomas and adenocarcinomas of the lungs. The work is a continuation of our structure activity inquiry concerning the relative carcinogenic potencies of the dialkyl versus the monoalkyl series of hydrazine analogues.
