چکیده

The incidence, distribution, size, and histopathology of rat small and large bowel tumors induced by sequential administra tion of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine followed by cecal placement of one of six differing types of suture materials were systematically examined. In addition, measurements of /3-glucuronidase activi ties in large bowel contents followed by fecal trace metal deter minations were done. The results indicate that specific slowly absorbed and nonabsorbable suture materials in the absence of a surgical anastomosis promote tumor induction locally in the rat cecum. In addition, cecal suture material composed of multifilament stainless steel wire enhanced tumor development at a "downstream" site in the distal colon, paralleling increased fecal /3-glucuronidase activities at this site and implicating a possible luminally mediated mechanism for colon tumor development in this animal model.

Glycoprotein Metabolism in Normal Proximal and Distal Rat Colon and Changes Associated with 1,2-Dimethylhydrazine-induced Colonie Neoplasia1

Glycoproteins are major components of secreted mucins as well as membranes of gastrointestinal mucosa! cells. Both qualitative and quantitative differences in mucosa! cell glycoproteins from different regions of the colon have been suggested by histochemical studies. Glycoprotein alterations have also been reported in hu man colon cancer. Since regional differences in glycoprotein synthesis are...

Effects of streptococcal preparation OK-432 on chemically-induced intestinal carcinoma in rats.

Intestinal tumors were induced by repeated subcutaneous injection of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine in Donryu strain rats for 28 weeks. A streptococcal preparation, OK-432 was administered at different times of the tumor induction_ Between the OK-432 treated and the untreated groups no significant difference was observed in the incidence of intestinal tumors, the total number of tumors per rat, the loca...

Effects of differing purified cellulose, pectin, and hemicellulose fiber diets on fecal enzymes in 1,2-dimethylhydrazine-induced rat colon carcinogenesis.

The fecal microflora enzymes, beta-glucuronidase and beta-glucosidase, as well as fecal bacterial counts, were examined during colon carcinogenesis in rats administered parenteral 1,2-dimethylhydrazine and fed nutritionally equivalent diets free of fiber or containing one of three single sources of dietary fiber (cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin). Whereas pectin-fed animals had increased fe...

Comparison of Wistar vs. Fischer rat in the incidence of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine induced intestinal tumors

Background. Many investigators have observed differences in the susceptibility to induce intestinal tumors by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) between various strains of rodents. The results are difficult to compare because of the different regimes used for induction. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the influence of strain on DMH-induced intestinal tumors between Wistar and Fischer rats. Ma...
