| Abstract | Dose-dependent promotion effects of combined treatment with sodium nitrite (NaNO2) and ascorbic acid (AsA) on gastric carcinogenesis were examined in rats pretreated with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Groups of 15 6-week-old F344 male rats were given 0.01% MNNG in their drinking water for 10 weeks to initiate carcinogenesis in the glandular stomach and a single intragastric administration of 100 mg/kg/bodyweight of MNNG by stomach tube at week 9 to initiate carcinogenesis in the forestomach. From week 11, they received either drinking water containing 0.05, 0.1 or 0.2% NaNO2 and a diet supplemented with 0.1 or 0.2% AsA in combination, each individual chemical alone or a basal diet until the end of week 42. In the forestomach, the incidence of hyperplasia was increased dose dependently by the treatment with NaNO2 alone. Incidences of neoplastic lesions were dramatically increased by the combined treatment with NaNO2 and AsA in a dose-dependent manner, but AsA itself had no effect. In the glandular stomach, only toxicity and regenerative changes were increased by the high-dose combination. In a second short-term experiment conducted for sequential observation, necrosis and strong inflammation were found in the forestomach epithelium shortly after commencing combined treatment with 1.0% AsA and 0.2% NaNO2, followed by hyperplasia, whereas there were no obvious effects in the glandular stomach. In addition, after a 4 h treatment with 1.0% AsA and 0.2% NaNO2, a slight increase in the 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine levels in the forestomach epithelium was observed by high-performance liquid chromatography and an electrochemical detection system, albeit without statistical significance. In vitro, electron spin resonance demonstrated nitric oxide formation during incubation with NaNO2 and AsA under acidic conditions. Thus, NaNO2 was demonstrated to exert promoter action in the forestomach, with AsA acting as a strong copromoter through cytotoxicity and regenerative cell proliferation, possibly mediated by oxidative DNA damage, but the combined treatment with NaNO2 and AsA had little influence on glandular stomach carcinogenesis. |
