چکیده
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, diet with 10% NaCl; group 3, diet with 10% NaCl and 2.5% CaCO3; group 4, diet with 10% NaCl and 7.5% CaCO3; group 5, diet with 7.5% CaCO3. During the next 20 weeks, all groups were fed with the basal diet and tap water. The carcinogenic incidences of glandular stomach between the nonsalted diet groups, 1 and 5 (15% and 16% respectively), were not significantly different at the 40th week. The incidences in the salted diet groups 2, 3, and 4 were 59, 63, and 43%, respectively, indicating no statistical difference among them. Thus, CaCO3 showed no anticarcinogenic effect on gastroduodenal carcinogenesis. In the groups 3 and 4, however, increased incidence of duodenal cancer was observed.

Effect of prolonged administration of gastrin on experimental carcinogenesis in rat colon induced by intrarectal instillation of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine.
The effect of tetragastrin on the incidence and histology of colonic tumors induced by intrarectal instillation of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine was investigated in Wistar rats. Prolonged administration of tetragastrin in depot form during and after treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine resulted in a significant reduction in the incidence of colonic tumors in Experimental W...

The effects of baclofen, a gamma-amino-n-butyric acid receptor B agonist, on gastric carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and how its effects are influenced by selective (M1) and non-selective (M1 and M2) pharmacological blockade of muscarinic receptors were investigated in inbred Wistar rats. Rats were given s.c. injections of 8 mg/kg body wt baclofen with and without...

Endoscopy can be used for sequential observation of gastric carcinogenesis in animal models. In the present study, we applied endoscopic examination and biopsy technique on N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced stomach cancer in rats using a newly-developed flexible 2.5 mm endoscope. A total of 36 rats were divided into MNNG-treated and non-treated groups, observed on gastric endo...

Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is thought to be a stomach carcinogen from epidemiological findings. To determine the effects of infection with the bacteria on experimental carcinogenesis, a study of the glandular stomach of Mongolian gerbils (MGs) was performed. Male MGs were treated with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine followed by inoculation with Hp or infected with Hp followed by N-methyl-N'-...
