چکیده

A single subcutaneous injection of 20-methylcholanthrene into newborn AKR mice less than 24 hours old resulted in the acceleration of the development of lymphocytic leukemia, and induction of subcutaneous sarcomas and multiple-lung adenomas. Morphological descriptions of the respective tumors were given. It is suggested that the lungs of newborn mice of strain AKR may prove to be a sensitive organ to evaluate carcinogenicity of certain carcinogenic compounds. ∗PMID: 14078637 [PubMed indexed for MEDLINE] Copyright c ©OKAYAMA UNIVERSITY MEDICAL SCHOOL Acta Med.

Effect of lactic dehydrogenase virus infection on tumor induction and tumor growth.

The ubiquitous nononcogenic lactic dehydrogenase RNA virus (LDV) is one of the most common contaminants of transplantable tumors and oncogenic viral preparations. This association of LDV with a large variety of murine tumors and the known effect of LDV infection on immune competence may suggest the existence of a possible etiological relationship between the virus and murine tumors. We have fou...

Influence of colchicine on leukemogenic effect of x-ray, estrogen, methylcholanthrene, and urethan in mice.

Colchieine had a significant inhibitory influence on the leukemogenic effect of estrogenic hormone in combination with either x-ray or urethan in mice. There was some suggestion that colchicine inhibited the induction of leukemia in mice by x-rays. Colchicine was not leukemogenic in low-leukemia strains of mice when administered alone. Colchieine did not affect spontaneous (presumably viral) le...

Comparison of endogenous murine leukemia virus proviral organization and RNA expression in 3-methylcholanthrene-induced and spontaneous thymic lymphomas in RF and AKR mice.

3-Methylcholanthrene-induced T-cell thymic lymphomas in RF mice were examined for involvement of murine leukemia virus (MuLV)-related sequences in leukemogenesis. Both the expression of MuLV-related RNA species and the organization of endogenous MuLV proviral DNA were analyzed. Of 27 primary tumors examined, only 5 exhibited elevated MuLV-related RNA species homologous to xenotropic specific en...

Influence of thyroid secretion on the in-duction of leukemia in Dba mice by methylcholanthrene

1) The influence of thyroid secretion upon the induction of leukemia in Dba/2 male mice by methylcholanthrene was investigated. Radiothyroidectomy significantly reduced the incidence of leukemia in these mice. This reduction in incidence did not occur if radiothyroidectomy was performed after the administration of the carcinogen. 2) Data indicated that hypothyroidism following radiothyroidectom...

Histological Analysis Antimetastatic Effect of Intera -Venus Injection of Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B and Monophosphoryl Lipid A Against Fibrosarchoma in Lung Tissue

Purpose: Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) is a potent inducer of cytotoxic T-cell activity, cytokine production and necrosis induction in vivo. Monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL) is an adjuvant derived from the lipopolysaccharide of E.coli, Salmonella Minnesota Re595 and other gram negative bacteria.Materials and Methods: In this research, The antitumor and antimetastatic effect of intra-venus inje...
