Effect of dibutylnitrosamine and saccharin on glutamyl transpeptidase-positive foci and liver cancer.

چکیده
Consistent with the proposed precursor relationship of GGTase-positive foci to hepatocarcinogenesis, the induction of foci by DBN was associated with the induction of hyperplastic nodules and hepatocellular carcinoma and the concurrent administration of sodium saccharin in the diet with DBN in the drinking water increased the tumorigenic response in the liver to DBN.

Promotive effects of steroids and bile acids on hepatocarcinogenesis initiated by diethylnitrosamine.
The ability of four steroids and three bile acids to promote the appearance of hyperplastic foci and hyperplastic nodules initiated by diethylnitrosamine (DEN) in the liver of male Fischer rats was tested and compared with that of the known promoter phenobarbital (PB, 0.05%) as a standard value. Two weeks after a single dose of 200 mg of DEN per kg, the animals were exposed to test chemicals fo...

2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a potent hepatocarcinogen in rodents. However, liver tumor incidence is increased by TCDD in female Sprague-Dawley rats but not male rats in chronic carcinogen bioassays. Our studies have investigated this finding by evaluating histological and biochemical parameters in a two-stage model for hepatocarcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats (intact...
متن کاملEffect of Helicteres isora Bark Extract on Protein Metabolism and Marker Enzymes in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
The present study investigated the possible protective effect of Helicteres isora (Sterculiaceae) bark extracts on certain biochemical markers in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes in rats. STZ treatment (60 mg/kg/i.p) caused a hyperglycemic state that led to various physiological and biochemical alterations. Blood levels of glucose, urea, uric acid and creatinine, plasma levels of albumin a...

متن کاملRole of acute hepatic necrosis in the induction of early steps in liver carcinogenesis by diethylnitrosamine.
Experiments were performed to assess the role of liver cell necrosis in the induction of early steps in liver carcinogenesis with diethylnitrosamine, as measured by the appearance of foci of resistant hepatocytes that stain for gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and that are presumptive preneoplastic lesions in the rat. With the use of a necrogenic dose of diethylnitrosamine and an assay for the car...
