Nonneoplastic lesions of the ovary in Fischer 344 rats and B6C3F1 mice.

چکیده
The National Toxicology Program's pathology database on 2-year carcinogenicity studies was reviewed for nonneoplastic ovarian disease. Ovaries from 39,941 female Fischer rats and 41,444 female B6C3F1 mice were examined. A variety of inflammatory, degenerative, vascular, and proliferative lesions were documented and are described. The most common ovarian lesions in rats were cysts (6%). The most frequent ovarian lesions in mice were cysts (15%), acute inflammation (4%), degeneration (4%), vascular disease (2.5%), and atrophy (2%). There was no difference in incidence of ovarian disease between controls and treated animals. The frequency of ovarian disease in mice exceeded the frequency in rats in every category.

Bioassay of 1-nitronaphthalene for possible carcinogenicity.
A bioassay of technical-grade 1-nitronaphthalene for possible carcinogenicity was conducted using Fischer 344 rats and B6C3F1 mice. 1-Nitronaphthalene was administered in the feed, at either of two concentrations, to groups of 50 male and 50 female animals of each species. The high and low time-weighted average concentrations used in the chronic study were, respectively, 0.18 and 0.06 percent f...

Dimethyl hydrogen phosphite (DMHP), an intermediate in the production of insecticides or herbicides, was administered by p.o. gavage for 2 yr to male Fischer 344/N rats and male and female B6C3F1 mice at doses of 0, 100, or 200 mg/kg and to female Fischer 344/N rats at doses of 0, 50 or 100 mg/kg. Dose related toxicity was seen in the lungs of treated male and female rats. The lung lesions were...

The toxicities of ethylene glycol (EG) and ethylene glycol monoethyl ether (EGEE) were studied in Fischer 344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice. In a 13-week study, EG was administered in feed to groups of 10 rats and 10 mice of both sexes at dose levels of 0 (control), 0.32, 0.63, 1.25, 2.5 and 5.0%. Kidney/body weight ratios were elevated in the 2.5 and 5.0% dose groups of male and female rats relative ...
