Effects of Isoliquirithigenin on the Development of Preneoplastic Liver Lesions Caused by a Choline-Deficient, L-Amino Acid-Defined Diet and on the Urinary Bladder Carcinogenesis by N-Butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine in Rats
Abstract:Abstract:Cancer chemopreventive efficacy of a chalcone, isoliquiritigenin (ISO), was assessed on the rat hepatocarcinogenesis associated with fibrosis caused by a choline-deficient, L-amino acid-defined (CDAA) diet, using glutathione S-transferase placental form (GST-P)-positive preneoplastic foci as the end point lesion, and on the rat superficial bladder carcinogenesis initiated by N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN). ISO, when given to F344 male rats at the doses of 12.5, 50, 100, and 200 ppm in the… Show more
