pancreatic neoplasms/トウモロコシ

Diets containing omega-6 (ω-6) fat have been associated with increased tumor development in carcinogen-induced pancreatic cancer models. However, the effects of ω-6 fatty acids and background strain on the development of genetically-induced pancreatic neoplasia is unknown. We assessed the effects of

We previously reported an enhancement of pancreatic carcinogenesis induced by N-nitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP) in hamsters fed diets containing high levels of corn oil. The research presented here compared diets high in corn oil with those high in beef tallow in the enhancement of pancreatic

Amount and type of fat and energy density of diets may influence tumor incidences. The purpose of this report is to summarize the influence of corn oil gavage and different nonpurified diets on spontaneous tumor incidences in 64 diet and 59 corn oil gavage control groups in two-year studies

The types and levels of fats in the diet are known to affect the incidence of certain neoplasms in humans and rodents. In long-term toxicity and carcinogenicity studies in rodents, the level of dietary fat is altered by using oil as a vehicle to administer unpalatable or volatile chemicals. Control

Pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 cells were exposed to curcumin, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), or combinations of both and analyzed for proliferation and apoptosis. Pancreatic tumor xenografts were established by injecting BxPC-3 cells into each flank of nude mice. After the tumors reached a size of

The effects of dietary fat on the induction and development of pancreatic ductular adenocarcinoma were studied in randombred Syrian golden hamsters. Diets containing low-fat (LF) or high-fat (HF) levels of corn oil [4.5 or 18.0 g/385 kilocalorie (kcal)], contributing 10 or 41% of the calories,

BACKGROUND S-trans,trans-farnesylthiosalicylic acid (salirasib, FTS) is a synthetic small molecule that acts as a potent Ras inhibitor. Salirasib inhibits specifically both oncogenically activated Ras and growth factor receptor-mediated Ras activation, resulting in the inhibition of Ras-dependent

An enhancement of pancreatic cancer induced by N-nitrosobis-(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP) was reported previously in Syrian hamsters fed high-fat diet following carcinogen treatment. The purpose of our research was to determine if this enhancement was due to the consumption of more calories by the

Because diet has been shown to modulate the incidence of a wide variety of chemically induced cancers in experimental animals, various dietary constituents were evaluated for their ability to modulate the incidence of pancreatic exocrine cancer in male Wistar/Lewis rats given injections of the

Diet has been shown to modulate the incidence of a wide variety of chemically induced cancers in animals. Various diets fed either during the initiation stage or the postinitiation (promotion) stage of carcinogenesis were evaluated for their ability to modulate the incidence of pancreatic cancer.

Benzyl acetate is used as a flavoring agent in foods, as a fragrance in soaps and perfumes, as a solvent for cellulose acetate and nitrate, and as a component of printing inks and varnish removers. The NTP previously studied the toxicology and carcinogenicity of this chemical in F344/N rats and

Synthetic propane diol lipids have been proposed as novel compounds to deliver cytocidal polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) such as gamma-linolenic (GLA) and eicosapentaenoic (EPA) acids. To assess the biodistribution and metabolism of these PUFA in immunodeficient mice bearing human pancreatic

The effect of diets high in an unsaturated fat on the enhancement of pancreatic carcinogenesis in saline-treated rats and in rats treated with N-nitroso(2-hydroxypropyl)(2-oxopropyl)amine (HPOP) was examined. Young male LEW rats were treated with a single dose of HPOP (160 mg/kg body wt) or saline,

The role of interactions between dietary fat and protein in experimental pancreatic cancer was determined in Syrian golden hamsters treated with N-nitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP). Two levels of corn oil [4.5 and 18 g/385 kilocalorie (kcal)] were fed with each of two levels of casein (9 g/385 kcal
