Effect of a hyperlipidic diet rich in omegas 3, 6 and 9 on aberrant crypt formation in rat colonic mucosa

Abstract: PURPOSE: To determine whether a hypercaloric and hyperlipidic diet enriched with polyunsaturated fatty acids influences the formation of aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in colonic mucosa of Wistar rats treated with azoxymethane (AOM). METHODS: At eight weeks of life, the rats were assigned to four groups: Group I―standard diet (STD) not treated with AOM; Group II―hypercaloric and hyperlipidic diet (FED), not treated with AOM; Group III―STD, treated with AOM; Group IV―FED, treated with AOM. At 16 weeks, the animals w… Show more

“…Also, the emergence of spontaneous ACF has been described in Fischer 344 rats without the use of a carcinogen 27 . Recently, Burlamaqui et al 28 , using azoxymethane for experimental colon carcinogenesis, reported the presence of ACF, albeit scarce, in rats that received no carcinogen.…”

“…The dysplastic ACF may present microsatellite instability, methylation with epigenetic silencing 14 . For this reason, it has been consecrated as a model for trials of new anticancer molecules, using the model in rats subjected to chemical carcinogenesis 13,15 . Do urinary derivations follow the course of this aberrant crypt foci model?…”

“…The Wistar rat can be used in the study of colorectal carcinogenesis, but it requires more prolonged exposure to the carcinogen 19 . Transgenic mice or rats are also widely used to study colon tumorigenesis.…”
