Disease relevance of as-Dimethylhydrazine

  • Hamsters given DMH (25 mg/kg body weight s.c.), once a week for 3 weeks, showed ACF induction in the colon after 10 weeks, but there was no difference between the NAT2r and NAT2s hamsters [1].
  • Mice receiving chronic DMH treatment showed a dose-dependent hyperplasia confined to the proliferative zone, with a parallel increase in mitotic and 3H-TdR-labelled cells and significant suppression of splenic NK activity [2].
  • Long-term administration of DMH was more toxic to F-344 rats than to SD animals, and the toxicity was potentiated by reductions in the micronutrient composition of the diet [3].
  • Soy molasses, which contains soy isoflavones, did not have an effect on colon cancer carcinogenesis in DMH-treated rats [4].
  • In addition, an approximately equal number of animals challenged with DMH were fed daily, until the end of the study, 2 x 10(10) Lactobacillus casei subsp. rhamnosus strain GG starting three weeks before DMH administration or after the ninth weekly injection [5].
 

High impact information on as-Dimethylhydrazine

  • However, CloA but not CleA prevented the DMH-induced reduction of splenocyte CD4/CD8 (T-helper cells to cytotoxic lymphocytes) ratio [6].
  • CloA inhibited DMH induced genotoxic damage in mucosa cells of the distal colon compared with Cont as investigated by single-cell microgel electrophoresis assay [6].
  • The crypt cell proliferation index induced by DMH (Cont/NaCl: 10.0+/-0.7%; Cont/DMH: 19.9+/-1.0%; P<0.001) was significantly decreased by CleA (15.7+/-0.7%; P<0.001) and CloA intervention (11.9+/-0.4%; P<0.001) [6].
  • In the two congenic hamster lines we also studied the induction of ACF with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) treatment, a colon carcinogen not metabolized by NAT2 [1].
  • Weekly injections of dimethylhydrazine (DMH) (25 mg/kg), or azoxymethane (AOM) (8 mg/kg) to young adult male CDI mice for 1-2 months produced generalized intestinal crypt hyperplasia, which we measured in duodenum in terms of number of interphase and mitotic cells present in crypts [7].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of as-Dimethylhydrazine

  • Finally, a stimulation of NK activity with Poly I:C treatment in DMH-treated mice caused regression of the DMH-induced hyperplasia [2].
  • PURPOSE:: We examined the effects of treadmill-running training on the induction of aberrant crypt foci (ACF), which is the first step of colon cancer induction, in the colonic mucosa of rats injected with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) [8].
  • At the end of the experiment, the diet group administered DMH and high cholesterol (2% CH plus 0.25% CA) developed colon adenoma at 50% of incidence in pathological examination, but no colon adenoma formed in the rats treated with high cholesterol alone [9].
  • The in vivo effect of E2 on DMH-induced colorectal cancer was studied in four groups of ovariectomized female rats: (I) untreated control, (II) E2 treated, (III) DMH treated, and (IV) combined E2 and DMH treated [10].
 

Biological context of as-Dimethylhydrazine

 

Anatomical context of as-Dimethylhydrazine

  • In concurrent studies, 1,25(OH)2D3 was administered (s.c., 400 ng/rat) prior to, together with and after DMH challenge and the activity of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), a growth-related DMH-induced enzyme, was determined in colonic cytosols [14].
  • There were no detectable effects of DMH per se 15 weeks after the last injection (or in the presence or absence of tumors) on T-lymphocyte response to PHA or on NKCA [15].
  • The highest frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (MPCE) and a dose-response relationship between erythropoietin doses and MPCE frequency were seen 30 hr after injection of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) to mice administered 24 hr previously with erythropoietin [16].
  • Enzymatic CAT activity was determined in the ileum and colon 8 weeks later after the final injection of DMH [12].
