Experimental bladder carcinogenesis-rodent models.
Several rodent models of bladder cancer development have been established. The aim of this review article is to provide a critical assessment of different animal models available for the study of bladder carcinogenesis, its chemoprevention and therapy. All, except for transgenic and knockout animals, require 8-12 months experimental periods in order to generate a high yield of neoplasias. Spont...
متن کاملChemical carcinogenesis: too many rodent carcinogens.
The administration of chemicals at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in standard animal cancer tests is postulated to increase cell division (mitogenesis), which in turn increases rates of mutagenesis and thus carcinogenesis. The animal data are consistent with this mechanism, because a high proportion--about half--of all chemicals tested (whether natural or synthetic) are indeed rodent carcinog...
متن کاملA20 Restricts Wnt Signaling in Intestinal Epithelial Cells and Suppresses Colon Carcinogenesis
Colon carcinogenesis consists of a multistep process during which a series of genetic and epigenetic adaptations occur that lead to malignant transformation. Here, we have studied the role of A20 (also known as TNFAIP3), a ubiquitin-editing enzyme that restricts NFκB and cell death signaling, in intestinal homeostasis and tumorigenesis. We have found that A20 expression is consistently reduced ...
متن کاملPromotion of intestinal carcinogenesis by dietary methionine.
The metabolism of the polyamines spermidine and spermine is known to be enhanced in rapidly proliferating cells. Methionine is a precursor of the aminopropyl moieties of these amines. Therefore, it was of interest to study the effects of a methionine supplemented diet on polyamine metabolism and preneoplastic changes occurring in the intestinal tract of rats treated with the chemical carcinogen...
متن کاملChemical Carcinogenesis in Transposed Intestinal Segments 1
A research model has been devised to assist in an assessment of the relative susceptibility of small bowel and colonie mucosa to potential intestinal carcinogens, and an application of this model to azoxymethane is reported. Intestinal transpositions were performed on Sprague-Dawley rats. In one group, segments of small intestine were transposed to the ascending and descending colon and, in ano...
