Characterization of an established transplantable adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder in Syrian golden hamster.

A carcinoma of the gallbladder was transplantable in Syrian golden hamsters. The tumor was induced by subcutaneous injection of N-nitrosobis (2-oxopropyl) amine ( BOP) following dissection of the common duct and preparation of a cholecysto-duodenostomy. The histology revealed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. The tumor was inoculated into the cavity of the gallbladder and subcutaneous tissue of the hamster and was transplantable (uptake rate was 100%). This tumor expressed blood group-related antigens, including A, H, and P-glycoproteins. To our knowledge, this is the first report of carcinoma of the gallbladder transplantable in a laboratory animal.[1]
