The inhibitory effects of some scavengers of oxygen radicals were studied, using a two-stage transformation assay system in vitro 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC)-initiation and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-(TPA)-promotion in Balb 3T3 cells. Mannitol, a scavenger for hydroxyl radicals, strongly inhibited the TPA-enhanced transformation in a dose-dependent manner. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, which are specific scavengers for O2-. and H2O2, respectively, also inhibited the transformation. These results suggest that oxygen radicals may play an important role in the TPA-enhanced transformation in Balb 3T3 cells.
