In this paper, the effect of peroral antidiabetic pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione derivate, on selected parameters of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats was evaluated. Pioglitazone was administered in the diet at
In this paper the chemopreventive effect of peroral antidiabetic metformin in mammary carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats was evaluated. Mammary carcinogenesis was induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (NMU) administered in two intraperitoneal doses each per 50 mg/kg b.w. between 43.-55.
Tumor promotion potential of diacylglycerol (DAG)-rich edible oil was examined using a two-stage mouse skin carcinogenesis model initiated with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA). Topical treatment with 75 mg DAG oil once a day for 5 days/week for 35 weeks caused papillomas in 4 of 23 (17%)
The aim of this study was to assess side effects of aromatase inhibitor anastrozole in the prevention of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea - induced pre-menopausal mammary carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats. This model mimicked situation in healthy, but from the point of view of the development of
Diet has been implicated as a major determinant of chemical carcinogenesis. Accordingly, rates of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) metabolism were compared in hepatocytes isolated from rats maintained on control, high-fat or food-restricted AIN-76A diets. Rats maintained on the food-restricted diet were given
A recent study using c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene transgenic (rasTg) rats demonstrated possible enhancing effects of diacylglycerol (DAG) on 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO) induced carcinogenesis of the tongue. To assess effects in their Sprague-Dawley back strain, a two-stage carcinogenesis study using
1,2-diacylglycerol (1,2-DAG) is involved in cell proliferation as an activator of protein kinase C (PKC) and has been shown to stimulate growth of cancer cells, raising the possibility of a role in tumor promotion. Ingested DAG oil, containing 70% 1,3-DAG and 30% 1,2-DAG, is digested and considered
Male Wistar albino rats were rendered hyperketonaemic by oral administration of medium chain triacylglycerols or by a single intraperitoneal injection of the diabetogenic agent streptozotocin. Hepatic post-mitochondrial preparations from these animals were employed as activation systems in the Ames
Single - agent therapy with aromatase inhibitors has no established role in premenopausal women with breast cancer. In this study, tumor suppressive effects of letrozole in the prevention of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea - induced mammary carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats were evaluated.
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)-enriched diacylglycerol (DAG) oil is an edible oil enriched with DAG (>80%) and ALA (>50%). The present study investigated whether ALA-DAG oil promotes tumorigenesis in the tongue and gastrointestinal tract, using a rat medium-term multi-organ carcinogenesis bioassay
The modifying potential of diacylglycerol (DAG) oil on tumor development was investigated in a medium-term multi-organ carcinogenesis bioassay. DAG oil is a cooking oil that contains >80% diglycerides, <20% triglycerides and <5% monoglycerides. Male 6-week-old F344 rats (20 in each group) were
The effect of diet supplemented with 5% and 15% cellulose or with 15% fiber isolated from red beet (Beta vulgaris var. rubra) on the development of alimentary hypercholesterolemia and chemically induced colon carcinoma was studied in male Wistar rats. Hypercholesterolemia was induced by a diet
Choline deficiency is associated with triacylglycerol accumulation in the liver, and is the only nutritional state known to trigger hepatic cancer spontaneously. In two different experiments, rats were pair-fed for 6 weeks with control (0.2% choline), or choline-deficient (CD) (0.002% choline)
The significance of fatty acid metabolism in cancer initiation and development is increasingly accepted by scientists and the public due to the high prevalence of overweight and obese individuals. Fatty acids have different turnovers in the body: Either breakdown into acetyl-CoA to aid ATP
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) refers to a group of fatty acid isomers of linoleic acid. Recent research shows that CLA affects body composition, lipoprotein metabolism, inflammationand carcinogenesis. Therefore, CLA may have potential as a therapeutic nutrient with respect to many common diseases,
