Rodents are susceptible to the effects of chemical carcinogens and have been widely used in the study of mammary-gland carcinogenesis. However, little information is available regarding specific phenotypic changes that occur during mammary-gland carcinogenesis. In this study, subtraction hybridization was used to identify specific genes whose expression in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU)-induced rat mammary tumors had been altered. mRNA isolated from normal rat mammary tissue and tumors induced by treatment of 50-d-old female rats with MNU (50 mg/kg) was used to produce normal and tumor cDNA libraries. Total inserts prepared from each cDNA library were used to produce a subtracted tumor-normal probe. Differential screening of the tumor library with the subtracted probe and normal cDNA yielded 20 clones that appeared to be differentially expressed. Northern analysis of mRNA isolated from normal mammary tissue and tumor tissue confirmed that four of these clones were differentially expressed. The expression of clones 4 and 15 was greatly increased (13-fold and tenfold, respectively) in most MNU-induced mammary tumors, whereas the expression of clones 10 and 27 was decreased (13-fold and fourfold, respectively). Sequence analysis revealed that clones 15 and 27 were highly homologous to calcyclin and a cDNA isolated from HL-60 cells, respectively. The differential expression of clones 4 and 10 was due to the presence within these clones of retroviral sequences and a fragment of transferrin, respectively. These clones may represent markers useful for studying the development of MNU-induced mammary-gland neoplasias. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Effect of PSC 833, an inhibitor of P-glycoprotein on N-methyl-N-nitrosourea induced mammary carcinogenesis in rats 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Studies in our laboratory on the role of P-glycoprotein (Pgp, coded by mdr1 gene) have led to the hypothesis that over-expression of Pgp is closely associated with the development of cancer. It was conceived therefore that inhibitors of Pgp should inhibit the development of cancer. We have reported that PSC833 (PSC), a potent inhibitor of Pgp, inhibits the development of liver cancer in rats. Similarly, based on the intrinsic over-expression of Pgp in experimental mammary carcinogenesis, we studied the effect of PSC on N-methyl-N-nitrosourea induced mammary cancer in female Sprague-Dawley rats. The study indicates that PSC at daily dietary doses of 15 (PSC15) and 30 mg/kg (PSC30) body wt resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of the incidence as well as the growth of mammary tumors. Compared with controls, PSC15 and PSC30 inhibited: (i) mean tumor multiplicity by 32 and 67%, (ii) median tumor burden by 46 and 93% and (iii) incidence of ulcerated tumors by 40 and 82%, respectively. Most remarkably, PSC delayed median tumor incidence by 8 weeks, and exerted a 100% inhibitory effect on the incidence of large tumors, 4 cm(3) and greater. In all the cases, although the inhibitory effect of PSC was evident at both doses, only PSC30 exhibited statistical significance. A possible compounding effect that was also observed in PSC30-treated rats was a decrease in body weight gain not attributed to diminished food consumption. All in all, consistent with recent reports, which have demonstrated inhibition of cancer development by compromising Pgp function, this study introduces a novel role for Pgp in breast cancer and potentially an unexplored therapeutic approach in treating the disease. 相似文献

The consumption of cruciferous vegetables (the Family of Cruciferae) such as cabbage, broccoli and Brussels sprouts has been shown to have cancer chemopreventive effects in humans and experimental animals. Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), one component of cruciferous vegetables, has been shown to exert cancer chemopreventive influence in liver, colon, and mammary tissue when given before or concurrent with exposure to a carcinogen. However in some reports, there has been evidence that consumption of I3C after carcinogen treatment might be associated with tumor promotion in some tissues. There have been no reports, to our knowledge, of post-initiation effects of I3C in the N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU)-induced mammary tumor model in rats. Our studies were performed to examine this question. Ninety-six, 4-week-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups. The animals of groups 1, 2 and 3 received an intraperitoneal injection of MNU at the age of 50 days. The animals of groups 4 and 5 were injected with saline only at the same time. Animals of groups 1 and 2 were given diet containing 100 ppm and 300 ppm I3C from week 1 until week 25 after MNU treatment. The animals of group 4 were given basal diet containing 300 ppm I3C without MNU treatment. All animals were killed at week 25. The incidences of mammary tumors in the groups 1, 2 and 3 were 95.8% (23/24), 83.3% (20/24) and 82.4% (28/34), respectively. The average number of tumors in the tumor bearing rats of the MNU and I3C 300 ppm group (group 2; 3.85+/-0.63) was higher than that in the MNU alone group (group 3; 2.46+/-0.31). These results represented that exposure to I3C after carcinogen treatment did not suppress development of mammary tumors. 相似文献

Inhibition of rat mammary carcinogenesis by monoterpenoids 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We have previously demonstrated the cancer chemopreventive activities of the monocyclic unsaturated monoterpene d-limonene. In the present work we report data evaluating the chemopreventive effects of limonene and five other monoterpenes with various chemical structures using a 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced rat mammary carcinogenesis model. The terpenes tested include: oxygenated [(-)-menthol] and non-oxygenated (d-limonene) monocyclic forms, oxygenated (1,8-cineole) and non-oxygenated [(+/-)-alpha-pinene] bicyclic forms and oxygenated [(+/-)-linalool] and non-oxygenated (beta-myrcene) acyclic forms. Dietary additions of each of the monocyclic terpenes, d-limonene or (-)-menthol resulted in a significant inhibition of mammary carcinogenesis. Furthermore, menthol was found to be a more potent chemopreventive agent than limonene during the DMBA initiation of rat mammary tumors. The acyclic and bicyclic terpenes had no significant chemopreventive activities at the dose levels used in these studies. 相似文献

Modulation of rat mammary carcinogenesis by indomethacin 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Indomethacin, a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agent which inhibits prostaglandin biosynthesis, has significant activity in inhibiting the growth and/or inducing the regression of transplantable tumors. The present study was designed to determine if, in addition to its chemotherapeutic effects, indomethacin also acts as a cancer chemopreventive agent. Fifty-day-old virgin female Sprague-Dawley rats were given a single intragastric dose of either 8 or 16 mg of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (time 0). Basal diet was supplemented with 25 or 50 mg of indomethacin per kg of diet by the following protocol: (a) -2 to +1 week; (b) +1 week to end; or (c) none. Administration of indomethacin by both protocols resulted in an inhibition of mammary tumorigenesis; however, the effect of -2 to +1 week indomethacin exposure was primarily on the induction of benign mammary tumors, while +1 week to end indomethacin administration inhibited the induction of both benign mammary tumors and mammary cancers. These data indicate that indomethacin has significant protective activity when administered either during the "early" stage (comprising the carcinogen-target cell interaction) or the "late" stage (postcarcinogen tumor development) of mammary carcinogenesis in rats. Possible mechanisms of indomethacin action include both local and systemic effects. 相似文献

Estrous cycle modification of rat mammary gland DNA alkylation by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Virgin Sprague-Dawley rats exhibiting regular estrous cycles were used as a model system to determine whether the level of circulating estrogen modifies the alkylation pattern of mammary gland DNA by a direct-acting carcinogen, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (NMU). The concentration of 7-methylguanine and O6-methylguanine were similar in mammary epithelial DNA 0.25, 0.50, and 1.0 h after i.v. injection of 50 mg/kg body weight NMU on different days of the rat estrous cycle. However, O6-methylguanine was significantly higher in mammary gland DNA 8 and 24 h after a single i.v. dose of carcinogen on proestrus or estrus, compared to rats receiving carcinogen on diestrus. There was no difference in the 7-methylguanine levels at 8 h in any group, but this adduct was higher in estrous-treated rats at 24 h. The ratio of O6-methylguanine to 7-methylguanine was significantly lower at 8 h in mammary gland DNA from diestrous-injected rats, and this difference reflected the lower level of O6-methylguanine adducts in this group. In contrast, O6-methylguanine concentrations in DNA extracted from the liver of the same animals were virtually identical at all time periods examined. 7-Methylguanine levels were higher in the liver at 0.5, 1, 8, and 24 h post-NMU in proestrus as compared with diestrous-injected rats. The observed adduct clearance suggests that rat mammary epithelium may contain repair systems capable of removing O6-methylguanine. These results also suggest that the initial removal of the O6-methylguanine lesions in mammary epithelial DNA (rather than the initial rate of alkylation) is affected by the hormonal environment during carcinogen exposure. This effect may be tissue specific since removal of O6-methylguanine from liver DNA is apparently not altered by the stage of the estrous cycle at which NMU is administered. 相似文献

We report here a detailed time course study of the individual and combined chemopreventive effects of Tamoxifen (Tam) and a high fish oil (FO) diet on multiple histologic parameters of mammary carcinogenesis. Groups of female Sprague‐Dawley rats were injected ip with 1‐methyl‐1‐nitrosourea at 50 days of age and assigned to either a control diet (20% corn oil [CO]) or a FO‐rich diet (10% FO + 10% CO) in the presence and absence of Tam in the diet (0.6 ppm). Rats were sacrificed at weeks 4 (before palpable tumors), 8 and 12 (when ~90% of control rats had palpable tumors). Our results demonstrate a major effect of Tam in inhibiting the development of early preneoplastic lesions. FO, while having a marginal protective effect of it own, enhanced the antitumor action of Tam on all histologic parameters of carcinogenesis, although the effects of the combination were not statistically different from those of Tam alone. The combination of FO and Tam was the only intervention that induced regression of established preneoplastic lesions. We also found that in contrast to plasma, only target tissue n‐3 fatty acids (FAs) levels correlated with select tissue biomarkers of carcinogenesis whose expression was altered in a manner predictive of a protective effect. Our results demonstrating the potentially superior chemopreventive efficacy of Tam and n‐3FA have important translational implications. Our data also emphasize the importance of local factors in affecting target tissue levels and biologic effects of n‐3FA. 相似文献

Colon specimens were obtained from 45 young male and female inbred CDF rats between 11 and 42 weeks after they began to receive intrarectal injections of the carcinogen N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) 43--108 mg, total dose); specimens were also obtained from 26 control rats. Well-developed tumors from rats receiving MNU generally presented grossly as polyps; histologically, as invasive adenocarcinomas that had not metastasized. These tumors resembled their human counterparts. Focal epithelial atypias were found in grossly normal mucosa both from rats that had not yet developed tumors and from tumor-bearing rats. Such foci typically consisted of low columnar cells with enlarged nuclei, increased number of mitoses, cytoplasmic basophilia, and reduced cytoplasmic mucus. Serial section studies of minute foci of atypia indicated that some of them arose from normal deep crypt cells. Transitions were frequently found between atypical foci and in situ or invasive carcinomas. Less commonly, adenomatous epithelium was identified in the early lesions or within the frank adenocarcinomas. It was concluded that most invasive carcinomas in this rat model originate in foci of epithelial atypia, which are found with increasing frequency in the flat mucosa during treatment with MNU, but that some carcinomas also arise from adenomatous epithelium. 相似文献

4-Hydroxyandrostenedione in the prophylaxis of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea induced mammary tumourigenesis
R C Coombes J R Wilkinson J M Bliss P Shah D F Easton M Dowsett 《British journal of cancer》1991,64(2):247-250
We have examined the role of the aromatase inhibitor 4-hydroxyandrostenedione (4-OHA) in the prevention of mammary tumourigenesis in experiments involving 170 rats. We first demonstrated a prophylactic effect of 4-OHA (50 mg/week) in reducing tumour incidence over a 30 week period compared to controls (P = 0.04). We repeated the experiment to determine optimum dose and duration of therapy. Although 4-OHA again prevented tumour development (P less than 0.0005), there was no difference between the standard (50 mg/week) dose and the higher dose (100 mg/week). Rats were randomised at 30 weeks to either stop or to continue prophylactic therapy; marginal benefit in tumour free survival in continuing therapy was observed (P = 0.03). We conclude that 4-OHA is an effective agent in preventing carcinogen-induced mammary tumours in rats and further studies of the role of oestrogen synthesis inhibitors in the prevention of human mammary tumours may be indicated. 相似文献

The occurrence of Ha-ras and Ki-ras oncogenes was investigated in mammary tumors produced by treating genetically resistant Copenhagen (Cop) rats with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea. G35-->A codon 12 mutations in both Ha-ras and Ki-ras genes were analyzed by a polymerase chain reaction/liquid hybridization and gel retardation assay. More than half of the adenocarcinomas analyzed contained an activated Ha-ras gene. This was also the predominant mutation in similar tumors from susceptible Buf/N rats, suggesting a common mechanism of initiation. In contrast, only two of 15 mammary adenosquamous carcinomas from the Cop rats contained an activated Ha-ras gene, suggesting a different initiation mechanism for most of these tumors. Ki-ras activation was found in none of five and one of five adenocarcinomas from Buf/N and Cop rats, respectively, and in none of 13 adenosquamous carcinomas from Cop rats. These results suggest that Ki-ras activation does not play a major role in the initiation of the mammary tumors. 相似文献

Transgenic rats carrying human c-Ha-ras proto-oncogenes are highly susceptible to N-methyl-N-nitrosourea mammary carcinogenesis 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

A rat line carrying three copies of the human c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene, including its own promoter region, was established and designated Hras128. Expression of the transgene was detected in all organs examined from Hras128 rats by northern blot analysis. To examine its influence on susceptibility to N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU)-induced mammary carcinogenesis, female rats were treated with 50 mg/kg MNU i.v. at 50 days of age. All 22 Hras128 transgenic rats rapidly developed multiple and large mammary carcinomas within as little as 8 weeks after MNU treatment (14.1 tumors/rat, average diameter 16.4 mm). In contrast, 24 non-transgenic littermates developed no or only small tumors (0.46 tumors/rat, average diameter 7.4 mm) within this period. PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis and direct sequencing for the transduced human c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene indicated that 38 out of 44 tumors (86.4%) contained cells with mutations at codon 12 in exon 1. However, the signal densities of the mutated bands observed in the RFLP analyses revealed the presence of mixed populations of mutated and non-mutated cells in the tumors, the latter being in the majority. PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism analysis detected no mutations in codons 12 or 61 of the endogenous rat c-Ha-ras gene of Hras128 rat tumors. The results thus indicate that rats carrying the transduced human c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene are highly susceptible to MNU-induced mammary carcinogenesis and that this is not primarily due to mutations of the transgene or endogenous c-Ha-ras gene. 相似文献

We have been studying a rat model of colon cancer in which tumors are induced by direct application of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) to discrete areas of the colonic mucosa for a limited period of time. Activation of the ras genes by point mutation has been observed in many experimental tumors, including tumors induced by MNU. To detect potential activating point mutations in the H-ras and K-ras oncogenes in MNU-induced rat colon tumors, DNA samples from 40 adenomas, nine carcinomas, and 14 histologically normal tissue samples from 14 rats--as well as from 16 foci induced on NIH3T3 cells by tumor DNAs--were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction and hybridized with allele-specific oligonucleotide probes. No H-ras point mutations were observed in any of these samples. We did detect K-ras point mutations, however, in four primary tumours--one adenoma (2.5%) and three carcinomas (33%); these mutations were all G----A transitions at the second nucleotide of codons 12 and 13. The absence of detectable ras mutations from the majority of tumors suggests that, in contrast to other animal models utilizing MNU, tumorigenesis in MNU-induced rat colon tumors may predominantly involve activation of genes other than ras. 相似文献

Estrous cycle modification of rat mammary tumor induction by a single dose of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The potential of individual stages of the rat estrous cycle to alter the incidence and subsequent behavior of mammary carcinomas induced by a single dose of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea on diestrus, proestrus, or estrus was examined. Mean latencies to first tumor appearance in diestrous, proestrous, and estrous groups were 86, 71, and 69 days, respectively (P less than 0.05 diestrus versus proestrus, estrus). Tumor incidence in diestrous rats given injections (73%) was significantly lower than in proestrous (87%) or estrous (89%) animals given injections, as was the mean number of tumors per rat. However, the number of days required for tumors to reach 1 cm in diameter in diestrous animals given injections (13.0) was significantly lower as compared with tumors in rats given injections during proestrus (19.3) or estrus (22.2). In later growth stages, the diestrous tumor doubling time was one-half that of tumors in proestrous rats given injections. Flow cytometric analysis of tumor tissues during midlog and later growth phases did not reveal any significant changes in ploidy or growth fractions between groups. Further, there was no significant difference in tumor cytosol estrogen receptor incidence, affinity (Kd), or content between groups, although tumor cell nuclear receptor for estrogen was higher (38.3 fmol/mg DNA; P less than 0.05) in proestrous rats given injections than in diestrous (21.6) or estrous (21.8) animals given injections. These data support the concept that the prevailing hormonal profile of the estrous cycle at the time of tumor initiation modulates the subsequent induction of mammary tumors. Further, the absence of any observed difference in tumor behavior between proestrous and estrous rats given injections suggests that prolactin does not impose an additive or synergistic effect on the initial stage of tumor induction when mammary gland epithelial cell DNA is previously stimulated by estrogen. 相似文献

The growth hormone-deficient Spontaneous Dwarf rat is resistant to chemically induced mammary carcinogenesis 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Recent epidemiologic studies have suggested that the growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor I axis plays an important role in human breast cancer. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the function of GH in rat mammary carcinogenesis, a model that closely recapitulates human breast cancer biology. The Spontaneous Dwarf rat (SDR) arose from the Sprague-Dawley rat and harbors a mutation in its GH gene yielding undetectable levels of a severely truncated protein not capable of binding to the GH receptor. When female rats of either strain were exposed to the direct-acting carcinogen N-methyl-N-nitrosourea, all wild-type rats (n = 10) developed multiple mammary cancers (5.3/rat). In contrast, SDR rats (n = 15) developed only three cancers (0.2/rat) and these were very small (<6 mm3). In another experiment, SDRs were backcrossed with wild-type Sprague-Dawley rats and the progeny were exposed to the indirect-acting carcinogen 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene. Progeny that were either homo- or heterozygous for the wild-type GH gene developed approximately 4 mammary tumors/rat, respectively. In contrast, SDR progeny developed only 0.21 tumors/rat. Mammary glands of SDRs had substantially less alveolar development compared with wild-type, yet ductal branching was similar in the two strains. Infusion of rat GH to SDRs induced mammary epithelial cell proliferation and alveolar development similar to that of wild-type rats. Taken together, these results demonstrate an important role for GH in alveolar development in the virgin rat, and provide the first direct evidence that GH plays a critical role in mammary carcinogenesis. 相似文献

Canthaxanthin, a carotenoid with no vitamin A activity, was evaluated for its efficacy in the prevention of chemically induced mammary cancers. Canthaxanthin was administered in the diet at two dose levels (3,390 or 1,130 mg/kg diet). In the dimethylbenzanthracene-induced mammary cancer model, diet supplementation with canthaxanthin for 3 weeks prior to the carcinogen resulted in a 65% reduction in the number of mammary cancers. The feeding of canthaxanthin after the administration of methylnitrosourea had no significant effect on mammary carcinogenesis. These data demonstrate that canthaxanthin, at least in these models of mammary cancer, is active in preventing cancer initiation and not promotion. Analysis of tissues by high-pressure liquid chromatography revealed that canthaxanthin levels in the liver are very high when compared to those in the mammary gland. The observation that canthaxanthin is highly effective in preventing cancer initiation without toxicity suggests that carotenoids not possessing vitamin A activity should be further evaluated as chemopreventive agents. 相似文献

Insulin does not promote rat mammary carcinogenesis 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Indirect evidence from both epidemiological studies and animal experiments
suggests that insulin may promote breast cancer development. In this study,
we directly tested for a promoting effect of insulin on mammary
carcinogenesis in Sprague-Dawley rats. Fifty day- old female rats received
an i.p. injection of 37.5 mg/kg methylnitrosourea (MNU). Five days later,
the animals were randomized into two groups. One group received insulin
injections five times/week until the time of death, while the other control
group received similar injections of normal saline. Over the course of 26
weeks following MNU treatment, the mammary tumour incidence in the
insulin-treated group did not differ significantly from the saline-treated
controls. Furthermore, the number of tumours per tumour-bearing rat did not
differ between groups. Our results demonstrate that insulin is not a
promoter of mammary carcinogenesis in this model.

Indomethacin, a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agent which inhibits prostaglandin biosynthesis, is an effective inhibitor of mammary carcinogenesis in rats. However, the activity of indomethacin as a chemopreventive agent is limited by toxicity. The present studies were conducted to determine if the toxic and anticarcinogenic effects of indomethacin can be modified by the phenolic antioxidant, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). Simultaneous administration of BHT resulted in a dose-related inhibition of indomethacin toxicity in female Sprague-Dawley rats, and increased the tolerable indomethacin dose from 50 to 150 mg/kg diet. When BHT (5000 mg/kg diet) and indomethacin (50 mg/kg diet) were administered in combination, no increased inhibition of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-induced mammary carcinogenesis was observed above that attained by administration of BHT alone or indomethacin alone at those doses. However, when the indomethacin dose was increased to 100 mg/kg diet, an enhanced inhibition of carcinogenesis was attained when BHT and indomethacin were administered from 2 weeks prior to until 1 week after 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene administration. These data indicate that "combination chemoprevention" regimens can be utilized to reduce the toxicity of anticarcinogenic drugs. However, the BHT-indomethacin interaction appears to involve a functional or dispositional antagonism which limits the anticarcinogenic efficacy of increasing indomethacin dose level. 相似文献
