The aberrant crypt foci (ACF) bioassay has been used extensively to study the early effects of different dietary components on the colonic mucosa of laboratory rodents. ACF are proposed to represent preneoplastic lesions of colon cancer. Compared to the normally used initiators 1,2-dimethylhydrazine
In most aberrant crypt foci (ACF) and colorectal tumour studies, chemical carcinogens not normally found in food have been used as initiators. In the present study the food-related compound, IQ (2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline), has been used. A diet high in refined carbohydrates has been
The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of carbohydrate structure and digestibility on azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon carcinogenesis. Five groups of male Fischer 344 rats each comprising 30 animals were injected with AOM and fed a high-fat diet with 15% of various carbohydrates. The
Context Inulin, a non-digestible carbohydrate isolated from Helianthus tuberosus L. (Asteraceae), has been shown to alter the gut beneficial bacteria including Lactobacillus spp. and Bifidobacteria. Inulin also influences the activities of intestinal microbiota that could prevent the colon cancer
Morin is a flavonoid present in fruits and Chinese herbs, exhibits various beneficial biological activities. There are numerous evidence suggesting that total dietary fat intake is generally associated with early promotion of colon cancer, the alterations in the lipid profile is important for
Inulin-type fructans, which are nondigestible carbohydrates, have been shown to modulate the number of induced preneoplastic lesions in the colon as well as the colonic microflora in laboratory animals. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of a short- and long-chained inulin-type
Aberrant crypt foci (ACF), the earliest identified monoclonal lesions in the colon, provide insights into changes that promote and/or accompany the transformation of normal colonic epithelial cells to colorectal cancer. Fatty acid synthase (FAS), the primary enzyme involved in de novo lipogenesis
Formation of aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in archived colon tissue from animals in a previous study was examined. The animals were fed a semisynthetic casein-based diet in which the carbohydrate pool was substituted with a dietary beet fiber (Fibeta) as the only source of fiber. Oral doses of
BACKGROUND
Obesity and energy restriction modulate the development of precancerous aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in animal models of colon cancer.
OBJECTIVE
Investigation of the major obesity-associated determinants for ACF-development and underlying mechanisms leading to ACF-modulation, such as changes
The present study was undertaken to investigate certain dietary factors known to affect the development of colon cancer for their ability to modulate aberrant crypt foci (ACF). Male Wistar rats were initiated with oral doses of dimethylhydrazine dihydrochloride (DMH-2HCl, 20 mg/kg body wt) once a
To study whether dietary carbohydrates affect dysplasia in aberrant crypt foci (ACF), rats treated with 1,2-dimethilhydrazine (DMH) were fed for three months with diets containing 46% sucrose or corn starch. The number of ACF/colon in the two dietary groups was similar (P = 0.58), but ACF were
Studies have shown that different kinds of carbohydrates are able to modify the development of colo-rectal cancer in animals as well as humans. In the present study with rats sucrose and two types of starches were investigated for their effects on the development of aberrant crypt foci (ACF), which
McKeown-Eyssen and Giovannucci recently proposed that the etiology of insulin resistance (IR) and colorectal cancer (CRC) are related. They suggested that diets high in fat and energy and low in complex carbohydrates and a sedentary life-style lead to IR and that the associated hyperinsulinemia,
Fructo-oligosaccharides or inulin-type fructans are mixtures of oligomers that are composed primarily of beta-D-fructose monomers linked by beta2-1 osidic bonds. They are natural constituents of many edible plants. They resist digestion and are not absorbed in the upper part of the gastrointestinal
