The effect of pineal indole hormone melatonin on colon carcinogenesis was
firstly studied in rats. Two-month-old outbred female LIO rats were weekly
exposed to 15 (experiment 1, groups 1 and 2) or to five (experiment 2,
groups 1 and 2) s.c. injections of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) at a single
dose of 21 mg/kg of body weight. From the day of the first injection of the
carcinogen DMH, the rats from groups 2 (experiments 1 and 2) were given
melatonin five days a week during the night-time (from 18:00 h to 8:00 h),
dissolved in tap water at 20 mg/l. The experiment was finalized in 6 months
after the first injection of DMH. In both experiments the majority of
tumors were localized in the descending colon. Tumors of the small
intestines developed only in rats from experiment 1. Total incidence of
colon tumors as well as tumors in different parts of the colon and the mean
number of tumors per rat were much higher in rats from both groups in
experiment 1 than that in rats from experiment 2. In experiment 1 melatonin
failed to influence the total incidence of colon tumors. However, incidence
of carcinomas in the ascending colon was significantly reduced (P <
0.01). The multiplicity of total colon tumors per rat, as well as the mean
number of tumors, ascending and descending colon per rat, was also
decreased under the influence of melatonin (group 2 vs group 1, P <
0.01). In the same experiment, melatonin slightly decreased the depth of
tumor invasion and increased number of highly differentiated colon
carcinomas induced by DMH. The percentage of small tumours in the
descending colon among rats from group 2 was higher than that of group 1.
Treatment with melatonin was also followed by a decrease in the
multiplicity of DMH- induced tumors of the duodenum (group 2 vs group 1, P
< 0.05) and by a decrease in the incidence of jejunum and ileum tumors
(group 2 vs group 1, P < 0.05). In experiment 2, the inhibitory effect
of melatonin on DMH-induced colon carcinogenesis was much more expressed
than that in experiment 1. Thus, in group 1 the incidence of total colon
tumors, ascending and descending colon tumors, was significantly decreased
in comparison with group 2; also melatonin reduced the number of tumors per
rat in the ascending and descending colon. The number of colon tumors that
invaded only mucosa was significantly higher in group 2 than in group 1, P
< 0.05. The ratio of highly differentiated tumors was increased (P <
0.05) and the ratio of low-differentiated tumors was decreased (P <
0.05) in rats exposed to melatonin (group 4) as compared with group 3. The
number of large size tumors in the ascending and descending colon was
decreased whereas the number of small size tumors (<10 mm2) was
increased in those parts of the colon that were under the influence of
melatonin in experiment 2. Thus, our results demonstrate the inhibitory
effect of melatonin on intestinal carcinogenesis induced by DMH in rats.

The effect of the oral administration of 10 compounds on 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) carcinogenesis was investigated in 180 male Wistar rats and 510 male BD6 rats. DMH, administered s.c. once per week for 20 consecutive weeks (20 mg/kg body wt/dose), produced intestinal (mainly colon) tumors of various histological type in 100% of both rat strains and, in addition, caused Zymbal gland carcinomas in 79.7% of Wistar rats. Pretreatment with disulfiram (DSF, 500 mg/kg), a known inhibitor of DMH metabolism, totally prevented intestinal and Zymbal gland tumors in Wistar rats. When DSF treatment started after the first DMH injection, the protective effect was not total, the incidence and multiplicity of both types of tumors being comparable to those observed following a single injection of the carcinogen alone. This confirms the involvement of DSF in the initiation stage only of DMH carcinogenesis. A complete prevention of intestinal tumors in BD6 rats was also produced not only by the DSF metabolite carbon disulfide (250 mg/kg) but also by the hepatotoxic agent carbon tetrachloride (1.5 ml/kg), which suggests that the block of DMH metabolism in rat liver is not an exclusive property of thiono-sulfur compounds. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) decreased the multiplicity of intestinal tumors, but not to a significant extent. BHT and the aforementioned metabolic inhibitors were administered by gavage in corn oil, which per se did not significantly decrease intestinal or Zymbal gland tumors. All remaining modulators were administered with drinking water. Two additional antioxidants triggered opposite effects on the multiplicity of intestinal tumors. In fact, sodium selenite (10 mg/l) significantly decreased the number of tumors, whereas ascorbic acid (10 g/l), irrespective of its combination with CaCl2, produced a marked enhancement. The alkali metal salts CaCl2 and KCl (both at 5 g/l) as well as the methylxanthines caffeine and theophylline (both at 600 mg/l) were devoid of significant effects. Neither treatment with DMH alone nor its association with test modulators was accompanied by significant changes in body weight gain or survival of animals. On the whole, depending on the mechanisms involved, the comparative study of test compounds led to a broad array of effects on DMH carcinogenesis, ranging from complete inhibition to significant enhancement. The resulting picture can be visualized at a glance in Figure 1 of this article. 相似文献

The effect of a synthetic interferon inductor Cycloferone on colon carcinogenesis was firstly studied in rats. Seventy-five 2-month-old outbred female LIO rats were subdivided into three groups and were weekly exposed to 15 s.c. injections of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) at a single dose of 7 mg/kg body wt. From the day of the fist injection of DMH rats from group 2 were given weekly i.p. injections of Cycloferone (62.5 mg/kg) until the end of the experiment. DMH-treated rats (group 3) were exposed to weekly i.p. injections of Cycloferone (62.5 mg/kg) starting in the week after the last injection of the carcinogen. Rats from group 1 were exposed to DMH and treated weekly with 0.2 ml i.p. of normal saline. Additional groups of rats were treated weekly with Cycloferone (62.5 mg/kg) or with 0.2 ml of saline. The experiment was ended 6 months after the first injection of DMH. In DMH-treated rats (groups 1, 2 and 3) colon adenocarcinomas developed in 87, 61 and 59%, respectively. The number of colon tumors per tumor-bearing rat was 2.5, 1.9 and 1.3 in groups 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Treatment with Cycloferone significantly inhibits carcinogenesis in ascending and descending colon. The incidence of tumors of the rectum was decreased in the group 2 as compared with the group 1. There were no cases of tumors of rectum in rats from group 3. The treatment with Cycloferone alone as well as with normal saline failed to induce any tumors in rats. Thus, our results demonstrated inhibitory effect of Cycloferone on colon carcinogenesis induced by DMH in rats. 相似文献

Mucin-depleted foci (MDF) are considered as useful biomarkers in rat colon carcinogenesis. The purpose of the present study was to examine the mechanism(s) underlying rat colon carcinogenesis induced by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) plus 1% Dextran Sulfate Sodium (DSS). Twelve male F344 rats were given subcutaneous injections (40mg/kg body) of DMH twice a week. They received DSS in the drinking water for 1 week after the first injection of DMH and then were maintained on tap water. The rats were sacrificed at 10 and 14 weeks after the first injection of DMH. Colon tissues were divided into 10 segments from anus to cecum (A/J) and stained with Alcian blue (AB) to identify MDF. We found that MDF and tumors were induced in the rat colon after treatment with DMH plus DSS and that the number of MDF in each segment of the colon was significantly correlated with that of tumors (p=0.006). In addition, we found that the beta-catenin protein was accumulated in cytoplasm and nuclei of MDF and the frequent beta-catenin gene mutations in the colon tumors. These results suggest that MDF is closely related to rat colon carcinogenesis induced by DMH plus DSS. 相似文献

The effect of synthetic pineal peptide Epitalon (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) on colon carcinogenesis was firstly studied in rats. Eighty 2-month-old outbred male LIO rats were subdivided into four groups and were weekly exposed to five subcutaneous injections of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) at a single dose of 21 mg/kg body weight. Additionally, 5 days a week, some of the rats were given subcutaneous injections of saline at a dose of 0.1 ml during the whole experiment (group 1, control) or Epitalon at a single dose of 1 microg during the whole experiment (group 2), Epitalon after termination of carcinogen injections (group 3) or during the period of DMH exposure (group 4). Colon carcinomas developed in 90-100% of DMH-treated rats. The number of total colon tumors per rat was 4.1; 2.7; 3.7; 2.9 in groups 1, 2, 3, 4, respectively (the difference in groups 2 and 4 compared with group 1 is significant). In rats from group 2, colon tumors were smaller than in control animals. In group 2, the incidence, as well the multiplicity of tumors in ascending and descending colon, were significantly decreased in comparison with group 1. In group 4, the mean number of tumors per rat was significantly decreased, too. A trend to decrease the number of tumors in the rectum in rats from groups 2, 3 and 4, treated with Epitalon was found. Epitalon inhibited also the development of tumors in jejunum and ileum. Thus, our results demonstrated an inhibitory effect of Epitalon on chemically induced bowel carcinogenesis in rats. 相似文献

Chlorophyllin (CHL), the water soluble sodium/copper salt of chlorophyll, was investigated for its effect on colorectal cancer risk in the rat-dimethyldrazine colon carcinogenesis model. Ninety weanling Fisher 344 male rats were treated with five weekly injections of 1,2 dimethylhydrazine (DMH), 20 mg base/kg body weight. Rats had been previously divided into three groups, consuming either rat chow and water (Group I), rat chow and CHL 1.5 mM in water throughout the experiment (Group II), or water and rat chow during DMH injection, adding CHL 1.5 mM to the drinking water after completion of the DMH treatments. At sarcifice, the incidence and yield of colorectal tumors were as follows: Group I 10% and 0.1; Group II, 23% and 0.27; and Group III, 47% and 0.53 (p less than 0.005 for incidence and = 0.003 for yield). These data demonstrate that, though it is well established that CHL is an antimutagen, CHL in this colorectal carcinogenesis model acted as a tumor promoter. 相似文献

Effect of dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate feeding on rat colorectal 1,2-dimethylhydrazine carcinogenesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) rodent model for colorectal carcinogenesis was used to explore the effect of dietary dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate (DSS) on carcinogenesis. Inbred male F344 rats were divided into two groups of 84 each and fed the following diets: ground chow and 5% corn oil (control group) and ground chow, 5% corn oil, and 1% DSS (experimental group). All rats received high-dose DMH base, 20 mg/kg/week sc for 20 weeks. Twenty rats per group were killed after 3, 4, 5, and 6 months. Duodenum, small intestine, colon, and rectum were dissected out. Each tumor was measured for size and location and evaluated histologically. The percentage of rats bearing tumors in the control and experimental groups did not differ significantly. In each rat there were fewer gastrointestinal tumors in the DSS-fed group of all histologic types combined, at all organ sites, at 5 and 6 months. This difference between the control and DSS-fed rats reached the level of statistical significance for tumors of the duodenum, colon, and rectum and for total gastrointestinal tumors at the 5th month. 相似文献

The effects of diet supplemented with perilla oil, which contains a large amount of n-3 alpha-linolenic acid, and n-6 linoleic acid rich soybean and safflower oil supplemented diets on 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)- and 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced mammary gland and colon carcinogenesis were investigated in female SD rats. Groups of 23 or 24, 5 week old animals were first given three s.c. injections of 40 mg/kg body wt DMH followed by a single intragastric administration of 50 mg/kg body wt DMBA within 2 weeks of the commencement. Starting 1 week after the DMBA treatment, they were administered pellet diet containing 10% perilla oil, soybean oil or safflower oil for the succeeding 33 weeks. Histological examination revealed that the resultant numbers of mammary tumors per rat were significantly lower in rats given perilla oil diet (4.4 +/- 2.5) than in the soybean oil diet group (6.5 +/- 3.9). Furthermore, colon tumor incidence was significantly lower in animals receiving the perilla oil supplement (18.2%) than in those given safflower oil diet (47.4%), and the numbers of colon tumors per rat tended to be lowest in rats administered perilla oil. Also the incidence of nephroblastomas in rats receiving perilla oil diet (0%) was significantly lower than that for the soybean oil diet group (23.8%). The results thus indicate that the alpha-linolenic acid (n-3)-rich perilla oil diet inhibits development of mammary gland, colon and kidney tumors as compared to linoleic acid (n-6)-rich safflower or soybean oil diet. 相似文献

Rapid induction of colorectal tumors in rats initiated with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine followed by dextran sodium sulfate treatment 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
To establish a rapid bioassay system with neoplastic end-points for detection of colorectal carcinogenesis modifiers, we evaluated the effects of dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) treatment on the different stages of carcinogenesis in rats initiated with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). F344 male rats were given three subcutaneous injections of DMH (40 mg/kg body weight) in a week, and were administered drinking water containing 1.0% DSS ad libitum either during or after the initiation period for a week, or both during and after initiation periods for 2 weeks. At the 10th week of the experiment, although the numbers of aberrant crypt foci were significantly decreased in all groups treated with DSS and given DMH-initiation as compared with DMH alone, dysplastic foci/adenomas/adenocarcinomas were increased. The incidences and multiplicities of these lesions were highest in rats treated with DSS after DMH-initiation period. At the 26th week, the incidences of adenocarcinomas (100 vs. 20% in DMH alone) and their multiplicities (6.6 +/- 0.8/rat vs. 0.2 +/- 0.4/rat in DMH alone) were also highest in this group. These results indicate that short-term DSS-treatment in the post-initiation period significantly accelerates DMH-induced colorectal tumor development in rats, so that this protocol may effective for establishment of a rapid bioassay system with neoplastic end-points. 相似文献

Circadian features of carcinogenesis of the large intestine induced by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine in rats
The study was concerned with comparison of carcinogenesis induced in the rat large intestine by 5 single doses of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) 21 mg/kg injected at different circadian stages--either at 10 a.m. or 10 p.m. Evening injections were followed by significant decrease in incidence (from 91 to 75%) and size of tumor (27.2-15.5 mm2). Also, there were relatively fewer large tumors in the evening series. 相似文献

Fermented milk products might be used for cancer chemoprevention due to their putative anticarcinogenic and antitumor activities. The diet was supplemented with freeze-dried milk fermented by Lactobacillus bulgaricus strain LBB.B 144 (product FFM.B 144) added throughout the experiment at doses of 1.3 g and 2.5 g per rat, 5 times a week starting 3 weeks before the first carcinogen injection. This treatment significantly inhibited, by 26.2-28.6% and by 34.2%, the total intestinal carcinogenesis induced by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH, 21 mg/kg, s.c., once per week for 20 weeks) in male and female BD6 rats, respectively. FFM.B144 decreased the tumor incidence and multiplicity in large bowel, caecum, and duodenum. Protective effects were better expressed in female animals, with exception of that observed in duodenum. Supplementation of diet with freeze-dried milk fermented by Lactobacillus bulgaricus strain LBB.B5 (product FFM.B5) inhibited DMH-induced carcinogenesis only in the large bowel, but had no significant protective effect when all intestinal tumors were taken into account. However, both freeze-dried products favorably shifted the differentiation of large bowel tumors by increasing the proportion of benign and highly differentiated malignant tumors and decreasing in parallel the number of poorly differentiated carcinomas without influencing the tumor size. A lower number of cases with visible mesenterial metastasis was also observed in FFM-treated rats. In addition, both FFM.B 144 and FFM.B5 significantly inhibited, by 26-33%, the induction in the same rats of ear-duct tumors. FFM.B144 but not FFM.B5 was also effective in inhibiting the tracheal carcinogenesis induced in Syrian golden hamsters by diethylnitrosamine (DEN, 100 mg/kg, two s.c. injections), the protective effect being better expressed in female animals. The anticarcinogenic potential of some fermented milk products might be exploited in chemoprevention of cancer in humans. 相似文献

We have established a medium-term colorectal carcinogenesis rat model initiated with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) followed by dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) treatment, featuring induction of neoplastic lesions within 10 weeks. In the present study, we examined its ability to detect modification of colon lesion development with 10- or 20-week experimental periods. F344 male rats were given three subcutaneous injections of DMH (40 mg/kg b.w.) in a week followed by free access to drinking water containing 1% DSS for a week. One week after this regimen, basal diet alone, basal diet containing 0.04% nimesulide or 2% lactoferrin as known inhibitors, 0.3% deoxycholic acid (DCA) as a promoter or 1.5% 1-hydroxyanthraquinone (1-HA) as a carcinogen were supplied. At week 10, the incidence and multiplicity of combined adenomas and adenocarcinomas were significantly (P < 0.05 or 0.01) decreased by nimesulide and lactoferrin, and values for adenomas were significantly (P < 0.01) increased in the 1-HA group. There was no clear change in the DCA group. At week 20, multiplicity and volume of the tumors were significantly (P < 0.01 or 0.05) decreased by nimesulide, but no effect was now evident with lactoferrin. Multiplicity and volume of tumors were significantly (P < 0.01) increased in 1-HA group and a similar tendency was apparent (P = 0.08) with DCA. It is concluded that this system offers a useful tool for detection of colorectal carcinogenesis modifiers within 10-20 weeks, pending further studies for verification employing other model chemicals. 相似文献

The effect of Konjac mannan (KM) on 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH-induced intestinal carcinogenesis was studied in male F344 rats. Rats were fed a diet containing 5% KM at 5 weeks of age. At 6 weeks of age, all animals were given a weekly intraperitoneal injection of 20 mg DMH/kg body wt for 13 weeks and autopsied 13 weeks after the last injection of DMH. The weight gain was lower in rats fed the KM diet than in rats fed the control diet throughout the experiment (P less than 0.05). The incidence of DMH-induced colon tumors was lower in animals fed the KM diet compared to animals fed the control diet (P less than 0.05). The number of colon adenocarcinoma per animal was also lower in animals fed the KM than in animals fed the control diet (P less than 0.05). However, the incidence of tumors of the small intestine did not significantly differ between the groups fed the KM and control diets. The present study demonstrated that colon tumorigenesis induced by DMH in F344 rat was inhibited by maintaining the KM diet. 相似文献

AIM: To elucidate the chemopreventive efficacy of selenium during experimentally induced colon carcinogenesis.METHODS: Thirty-two male wistar rats were divided into four groups: group I (normal control); group II [1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) treated]; group III (selenium treated); and group IV (DMH + selenium treated). Groups II and IV were given subcutaneous injections of DMH (30 mg/kg body weight) every week for 20 wk. Selenium, in the form of sodium selenite, was given to groups III and IV at 1 ppm in drinking water ad libitum for 20 wk. At the end of the study, rats were sacrificed and their colons were analyzed for the development of tumors, antioxidant enzyme levels and histological changes.RESULTS: 100% of the DMH treated rats developed tumors, which was reduced to 60% upon simultaneous selenium supplementation. Similarly, tumor multiplicity decreased to 1.1 following selenium supplementation to DMH treated rats. Levels of lipid peroxidation, glutathione-S-transferase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) decreased following DMH treatment, whereas levels of glutathione (GSH) and glutathione reductase (GR) significantly increased in DMH treated rats. Selenium administration to DMH treated rats led to an increase in the levels of lipid peroxidation, SOD, catalase, glutathione-S-transferase and GPx, but decreased the levels of GSH and GR. Histopathological studies on DMH treated rats revealed dysplasia of the colonic histoarchitecture, which showed signs of improvement following selenium treatment.CONCLUSION: The study suggests the antioxidative potential of selenium is a major factor in providing protection from development of experimentally induced colon carcinogenesis. 相似文献

One of the models of colon carcinogenesis in rats is produced by s.c. injections of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). This specific colon carcinogen provokes other tumors in the rat, notably intestinal tumors. Ear tumors are just marginally mentioned in the literature. We have studied the appearance and histologic characteristics of ear tumors produced by 19 s.c. injections of 21 mg/kg of DMH in 18 Sprague-Dawley rats: 15 tumors appeared in 13 ears of 10 rats (55% of the animals). Simultaneously there were 23 colonic tumors: four (26.6%) of the tumors were carcinomas, 10 (66.6%) papillomas and one (6.6%) pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia. We conclude that ear tumors induced by DMH appear in 55% of the rats and that it is not possible to distinguish macroscopically in terms of size and aspect between benign and malignant lesions. 相似文献

The effect of dietary beta-carotene on colon carcinogenesis induced by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine [(DMH) CAS: 540-73-8] was studied in female inbred Swiss Webster (ICR) mice. At age 10 weeks and continuing throughout the experiment, mice received diets consisting mainly of natural foods (laboratory chow) and containing 2 or 22 mg beta-carotene/kg. At age 15 weeks they received 7 weekly sc injections of DMH (total dose: 196 mg DMH X diHCI/kg body wt). When autopsied 31 weeks after the first DMH injection, the incidence (percent of mice with tumors) and multiplicity (number of tumors/tumor-bearing mouse) of colon tumors were reduced by half in the mice supplemented with beta-carotene. There was a much greater decrease in adenocarcinomas than in adenomas. Mice observed for 13 additional weeks revealed that the mortality rate, due largely or wholly to colon cancer, was only about half in supplemented mice. Mice sacrificed 12 weeks after the first dose of DMH (i.e., well before tumors appeared) showed mild colon mucosal hyperplasia. beta-Carotene supplementation, however, did not alter this, indicating that the protective effect against colon cancer may have occurred at a late stage of carcinogenesis. 相似文献

The effects of antioxidants given in the post initiation phaseof colon tumor development were investigated in male F344 ratstreated with 1 ,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). Animals (20/group)were given s.c. injections of DMH at a dose of 20 mg/kg oncea week for four consecutive weeks. One week after the last injection,rats were fed diet containing 5% sodium L-asorbate (SA), 0.5%butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), 0.8% ethoxyquin (EQ), 1.0% propylgallate or 0.5% butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) for 36 weeks.A control group was fed the basal diet not containing antioxidants.The experiment was terminated 40 weeks after the first injectionof DMH and all intestinal tumors were confirmed histologically.SA significantly increased the incidence of adenomas and thenumber of tumors per rat of the colon (especially of the distalcolon). Although EQ and BHT did not affect the number of ratswith colon tumors, the number of tumors per rat occurring inthe distal colon was significantly increased by EQ while beingdecreased by BHT. No modification of tumor development was observedwith BHA or PG. Thus, modification of tumor development by SA,EQ and BHT was apparent, mainly in the distal colon. 相似文献

An antitumorigenic effect of sarcophytol A (SaA), a simple monohydroxycembratetraene isolated from a marine soft coral Sarcophyton glaucum, was investigated in rat colon carcinogenesis. Three groups (26 rats each) of female CD-Fischer rats given an intrarectal dose of 2 mg of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea 3 times weekly for Wk 1 to 3 were fed standard laboratory chow in the control group or the chow containing 0.01% SaA from Wk 1 or from Wk 4 in experimental groups. The body weight gain and the food intake were not different among all 3 groups, and SaA intake was similar in both experimental groups at a dosage of 6.18 and 6.14 mg/kg of body weight/day at Wk 5 and 3.87 and 3.90 mg/kg of body weight/day at Wk 25. At autopsy at Wk 26, the incidence of large bowel tumors was found to be significantly lower and the mean number of tumors per tumor-bearing rat to be insignificantly smaller in experimental groups than in the control group: 50% and 58% versus 85%, 1.8 and 1.8 versus 2.0. The tumors in both experimental groups were generally smaller. All the tumors except two signet ring cell carcinomas were well-differentiated adenocarcinomas. Induction of ornithine decarboxylase activity, a marker of tumor promotion, in the large bowel mucosa of rats which were fed the SaA chow for 1 wk, then received an intrarectal dose of 12, 6, or 1.2 mumol of deoxycholate, a tumor promoter in large bowel carcinogenesis, and were killed 4 h later was significantly lower than in control rats. Thus, it was concluded that SaA inhibited the development of large bowel cancer, probably through an antipromoting mechanism. 相似文献

Dietary calcium and vitamin D modulate 1,2-dimethylhydrazine-induced colonic carcinogenesis in the rat 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
To determine whether supplemental dietary calcium and/or vitamin D deficiency are involved in modulating colon cancer induced by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH), Sprague-Dawley rats were fed diets containing either: (a) a normal content of calcium (0.87%) and phosphorus (0.60%) with 2.2 IU of vitamin D3 per g of feed (group A); (b) the same diet as group A, but with calcium and phosphorus increased to 1.80 and 0.80%, respectively (group B); or (c) a vitamin D-deficient diet with supplemental calcium (1.80%) and phosphorus (0.80%) (group C). After 6 weeks on their respective diets, one-half the animals in each group were given s.c. injections of either vehicle or DMH (20 mg/kg body weight/week) for 26 weeks. Animals were then sacrificed and the incidence of tumors as well as the number of tumors per tumor-bearing rat were determined. Colonic mucosal polyamine levels were measured after 15 weeks of exposure to vehicle or DMH, before development of histologically recognizable neoplasms. The results of these experiments demonstrated that neither calcium supplementation alone nor supplemental calcium in conjunction with vitamin D deficiency altered the incidence of colonic cancer induced by this carcinogen. Supplemental calcium, however, significantly decreased the number of rats with multiple tumors and reduced tumor size. Moreover, vitamin D deficiency abolished these protective effects of calcium on colon cancer in this experimental model. DMH treatment increased polyamine levels in the premalignant colonic mucosa in group A rats. This carcinogen-induced effect was blunted by high dietary calcium. Vitamin D-deficient, calcium-supplemented rats (group C) showed an increase in N1-acetylspermidine, but not the other polyamines, with DMH treatment. 相似文献

The usefulness of mucin-depleted foci (MDF), which have recently been proposed as a new preneoplastic biomarker in rat colon carcinogenesis, was histologically investigated in rat colonic tissues treated with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine dihydrochloride (DMH). The relationship among aberrant crypt foci (ACF), MDF and beta-catenin accumulated crypts (BCAC) was examined by comparing the corresponding computer-captured images. Twelve male F344 rats were given DMH s.c. at a dose of 40 mg/kg body weight, once a week for 2 weeks, and randomly divided into two groups. Rats in group 1 were given normal drinking water, while those in group 2 were given drinking water containing indomethacin (IND) at 16 ppm for 6 weeks. All animals were sacrificed 8 weeks after the first DMH treatment. The resected colons were fixed in 10% formalin, and stained with Alcian blue for observation of ACF and MDF. Histological and immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the numbers of ACF, MDF and overlapping lesions in group 2 (treated with IND) were significantly decreased, compared with those in group 1. The number of BCAC in group 2 was also significantly lower than that in group 1. The reduction (61.5%) of MDF by IND was much greater than that (29.3%) of ACF. Analyses of the computer-captured images indicated that MDF had more frequent dysplastic changes and overexpression of beta-catenin than did ACF. MDF having over 4 crypts or MDF with the appearance of ACF corresponded well to BCAC. These results suggest that MDF may be useful as an early biomarker in colon carcinogenesis. 相似文献
