Suppressive Effect of Feeding Yoghurt or Lactose on N-Methyl-N'-Nitro-N-Nitrosoguanidine-Induced Gastric Tumorigenesis in Rats

Effect of calcium on rat gastric carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine.

The effect of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) on the initiation of gastroduodenal carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was examined under the conditions with and without sodium chloride. Male Wistar rats were given drinking water containing MNNG (100 mg/liter) and one of the following diets during the first 20 weeks ad libitum. Group 1 was given basal diet; group 2, d...

The effect of ubenimex on N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-induced stomach tumor in rats.

The effect of ubenimex on the progression of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced stomach tumor in rats was studied. Tumor induction was performed by giving MNNG via drinking water for 34 weeks. Ubenimex was ip administered twice a week at 0.5 mg/kg for 84 weeks in one group and 49 weeks in another starting from the first and 36th weeks after initiation of MNNG administration, re...

Ossification of the N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine-induced small intestine adenocarcinomas in rats.

Eighty rats out of 233 developed malignant tumors in the stomach and small intestine by administration of 100 micrograms/ml N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in drinking water for 28 weeks. Fifteen lesions (30%) among the 50 small intestinal carcinomas showed ossification in the tumor, while none in the sarcomas (12 lesions) or gastric adenocarcinomas (59 lesions) showed ossification....

Naringenin Inhibits Oxidative Stress Induced Macromolecular Damage in N-methyl N-nitro N-nitrosoguanidine Induced Gastric Carcinogenesis in Wistar Rats

Lycopene Enhances Antioxidant Enzyme Activities and Immunity Function in N-Methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine–Induced Gastric Cancer Rats

To investigate anticancer effect of lycopene, we examined the effects of lycopene on the oxidative injury and immunity activities of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced gastric cancer rats. The animals were divided into five groups. Group I served as the normal control and was given corn oil orally for 20 weeks. Group II were induced with MNNG 200 mg/kg body weight by oral gavag...
