Enhancing Effect of High Fat Diet on 4‐Nitroquinoline 1‐Oxide‐induced Pulmonary Tumorigenesis in ICR Male Mice

Abstract: The effects of dietary high fat on 4‐nitroquinoline 1‐oxide (4NQO)‐induced lung tumorigenesis were investigated in male ICR mice. Two groups of mice were initially given a single subcutaneous injection of 4NQO at a dose of 15 mg/kg and, thereafter, fed either 20% corn oil‐supplemented diet or a standard basal diet. Two further groups were maintained on the high fat diet or standard diet without administration of 4NQO. Mice were killed at weeks 15, 18 and 25 and the incidence of lung tumors at each time point w… Show more

“…experimental studies in rodents have shown that ω-3 unsaturated fatty acids may enhance the development of cancer in colon (29), breast (30) and liver (31). We previously noted the promotion of 4nQo-induced pulmonary tumorigenesis in male Icr mice due to a high-fat diet (21). the lack of any enhancing effect of a high concentration of corn oil in the diet in the present study is therefore noteworthy.…”

“…A high-fat diet was previously shown to enhance the 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4nQo)-induction of lung tumorigenesis in mice (21). Female A/J mice which are highly susceptible to lung carcinogens were selected to investigate the relationship between the lung carcinogenic potential of MeIQx and a high-fat diet in a medium-term test.…”

“…Furthermore, the mean numbers of lung tumors/animal were significantly different between groups 1 and 2 sacrificed at weeks 15 and 25. This study demonstrated that dietary high fat clearly enhances the development of 4NQO-initiated mouse lung tumors 26 . Similar results were also published for benzo[a]pyreneinduced hamster respiratory tumor development 27 and Nnitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine-induced hamster lung tumorigenesis 28 .…”

“…With regard to lung carcinogenesis, only a few promoters have been identified, such as bleomycin 19 , butylated hydroxytoluene 2 0 -2 2 glycerol 2 3 , 2 4 or iron administration 25 . We investigated the influence of dietary high fat diet on 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO)-induced lung tumorigenesis in the ICR mouse 26 . A total of 160, 6-week-old male ICR mice (Charles River Japan Inc., Atsugi) were divided into 4 equal groups: Groups 1 and 2 were given a single injection of 4NQO subcutaneously at a dose of 15 mg/kg body weight, and Groups 3 and 4 received a single injection of 10 ml/kg body weight of the oil mixture without 4NQO.…”

“…experimental studies in rats have shown that fats containing ˆ-6 fatty acids (for example, corn oil) enhance, while ˆ-3 fatty acids (for example, fish oil and mustard oil) reduce, the development of chemically-induced colon tumors (23,24). Previously, we reported that a high fat diet (20% corn oil) enhanced 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4nQo)-induced pulmonary tumorigenesis in male icr mice (25). Therefore, in the present study, female a/J mice, which are highly susceptible to lung carcinogens, were fed a diet supplemented with MeiQx and a high concentration of corn oil, to test for the development of lung tumors.…”
