چکیده

Various inbred strains of mice show pronounced differences in susceptibility to carcinogenic agents. Previous experiments (2) with CBA, C3H , CHI, NH, and JK mice revealed that C3 H and JK mice were respectively most and least susceptible to tumors induced by subcutaneous injection of methylcholanthrene. The F1 progeny of the C3H and JK strains have been used in additional investigation of the inheritance of METHODS

The effect of steriods on methylcholanthrene-induced subcutaneous tumors in C3H and BALB/c mice.

Tumors were induced in mice with 20-methylcholanthrene for the purpose of studying the anti-cancer activity of steroids. Repeated subcutaneous injections of 20-methylcholanthrene (MC) were used to induce sarcomas in two strains of mice, BALB/c males and CSH/Jax females. Over 80 per cent of the BALB/c and 100 per cent of the C3H mice developed tumors within 90 days after the start of carcinogen ...

Antigenic properties of methylcholanthrene-induced tumors in mice of the strain of origin.

Immunity has been produced against transplantable tumors which arose in inbred mice by Gross (3) and in inbred rats by Lewis et al. (6, 7). These results have been explained on the basis ei ther that the tumor has mutated during repeated transplantation, or that immunogenetic differ ences among the inbred mice have developed (4, 8). In the experiments of Lewis et al., immunity to uniformly prog...

EFFECT OF IRON OVERLOAD ON 7, 12-DIMETHYLBENZ (A) ANTHRACENE-INDUCED SKIN TUMORIGENESIS

Iron overload is known to occur in the West European and American population due to the consumption of iron-rich diets. On the other hand, genetic disorders leading to iron overload are also known. Iron overload leads to increased peroxidation and disruptive disintegration of lipid-rich membranes, and predisposes humans for an enhanced risk of cancer induction. In experimental animals iron ...

Gold nanoparticle-induced sonosensitization enhances the antitumor activity of ultrasound in colon tumor-bearing mice

Introduction: Light-driven cancer therapy strategies (e.g. photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy) have undergone remarkable progress in recent years, but they still suffer from a serious drawback of limited penetration depth of light in tissue. As a non-invasive and non- ionizing radiation, ultrasound can be focused remotely, transferring acoustic energy deep in the bo...
