Short-term biomarkers of tumor promotion in mouse skin treated with petroleum middle distillates.
Topical application of certain petroleum middle distillates (PMD) to mice produces skin tumors after long latency, and initiation/promotion protocols indicate that this effect is associated with their tumor promoting activity. Since induction of sustained, potentiated epidermal hyperplasia is predictive of promoting activity, five compositionally distinct PMD [hydrodesulfurized kerosene (API 81...
متن کاملMolecular Mechanisms of Mouse Skin Tumor Promotion
Multiple molecular mechanisms are involved in the promotion of skin carcinogenesis. Induction of sustained proliferation and epidermal hyperplasia by direct activation of mitotic signaling pathways or indirectly in response to chronic wounding and/or inflammation, or due to a block in terminal differentiation or resistance to apoptosis is necessary to allow clonal expansion of initiated cells w...
متن کاملInhibition of multistage tumor promotion in mouse skin by diethyldithiocarbamate.
Diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) injected i.p. inhibits remarkably and in a dose-dependent manner 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-decreased glutathione (GSH) peroxidase and TPA-induced ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activities in mouse epidermis in vivo. DDTC is more potent in inhibiting these effects of TPA than 16 other antioxidants, free radical scavengers, thiol-containing compounds,...
متن کاملA comprehensive evaluation of the mechanism of skin tumorigenesis by straight-run and cracked petroleum middle distillates.
The role of skin irritation and other factors on the tumorigenic activity of petroleum middle distillates (PMDs) in mice was examined in a comprehensive research program. The program culminated in a 2-year dermal carcinogenicity study which compared the effects of equal weekly doses of irritating and nonirritating PMDs. Modified Ames mutagenicity studies and three- to seven-ring polycyclic arom...
متن کاملDose and frequency effect in mouse skin tumor promotion.
In order to study the influence of both dose and application frequency of tumor-promoting agents on tumor development, we conducted a large-scale mouse skin two-stage carcinogenesis experiment. The back skins of 1110 CD-1 mice were painted once with 50 micrograms benzo(a)pyrene. These mice were divided into 24 groups according to subsequent schedules of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA...
