Predictive value of proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis as intermediate markers for colon tumorigenesis.

Predictive value of proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis as intermediate markers for... In order to determine the prognostic significance of proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis as intermediate markers for colon tumor development, these indices were measured during the promotion phase of tumorigenesis. Two hundred and sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were provided with one of two fats (corn oil and fish oil) and two fibers (pectin and cellulose) plus or minus the carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM) and killed at two time points (18 and 36 wk) in a 2x2x2x2 factorial design. In vivo cell proliferation was measured immunohistochemically using incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine into DNA. Differentiation was assessed by binding of Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) to colonocytes. Apoptosis was measured by immunoperoxidase detection of digoxigenin-labeled genomic DNA. Adenocarcinoma incidence results at week 36 were 70.3% for corn oil + AOM and 56.1% for fish oil + AOM treatment (P < 0.05); no main effect of fiber was observed. At week 18, AOM treatment increased the number of cells per crypt column in the proximal colon compared with saline controls (P = 0.0358) and increased the proliferative zone in the distal colon compared with controls (P = 0.0073). However, changes in cell proliferation at week 18 did not predict the beneficial effect of fish oil versus corn oil. In contrast, DBA binding (the marker for differentiation) was higher in fish oil versus corn oil fed animals in both the proximal and distal colon and in each portion of the crypt (P = 0.0001). There were a greater number of apoptotic cells/crypt column in the proximal colon (P = 0.0019) and distal colon (P = 0.0358) with fish oil compared with corn oil, and indices of apoptosis also predicted certain fat/fiber interactions. Measurements of differentiation and apoptosis had greater prognostic value to detect dietary effects on tumor incidence than did measurements of cell proliferation. « Previous | Next Article » Table of Contents This Article Carcinogenesis (1997) 18 (4): 721-730. doi: 10.1093/carcin/18.4.721 » Abstract Free Full Text (PDF) Free Services Article metrics Alert me when cited Alert me if corrected Find similar articles Similar articles in Web of Science Similar articles in PubMed Add to my archive Download citation Request Permissions Citing Articles Load citing article information Citing articles via CrossRef Citing articles via Scopus Citing articles via Web of Science Citing articles via Google Scholar Google Scholar Articles by Chang, W.

Abstract

In order to determine the prognostic significance of proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis as intermediate markers for colon tumor development, these indices were measured during the promotion phase of tumorigenesis. Two hundred and sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were provided with one of two fats (corn oil and fish oil) and two fibers (pectin and cellulose) plus or minus the carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM) and killed at two time points (18 and 36 wk) in a 2x2x2x2 factorial design. In vivo cell proliferation was measured immunohistochemically using incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine into DNA. Differentiation was assessed by binding of Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA) to colonocytes. Apoptosis was measured by immunoperoxidase detection of digoxigenin-labeled genomic DNA. Adenocarcinoma incidence results at week 36 were 70.3% for corn oil + AOM and 56.1% for fish oil + AOM treatment (P < 0.05); no main effect of fiber was observed. At week 18, AOM treatment increased the number of cells per crypt column in the proximal colon compared with saline controls (P = 0.0358) and increased the proliferative zone in the distal colon compared with controls (P = 0.0073). However, changes in cell proliferation at week 18 did not predict the beneficial effect of fish oil versus corn oil. In contrast, DBA binding (the marker for differentiation) was higher in fish oil versus corn oil fed animals in both the proximal and distal colon and in each portion of the crypt (P = 0.0001). There were a greater number of apoptotic cells/crypt column in the proximal colon (P = 0.0019) and distal colon (P = 0.0358) with fish oil compared with corn oil, and indices of apoptosis also predicted certain fat/fiber interactions. Measurements of differentiation and apoptosis had greater prognostic value to detect dietary effects on tumor incidence than did measurements of cell proliferation. « Previous | Next Article » Table of Contents This Article Carcinogenesis (1997) 18 (4): 721-730. doi: 10.1093/carcin/18.4.721 » Abstract Free Full Text (PDF) Free Services Article metrics Alert me when cited Alert me if corrected Find similar articles Similar articles in Web of Science Similar articles in PubMed Add to my archive Download citation Request Permissions Citing Articles Load citing article information Citing articles via CrossRef Citing articles via Scopus Citing articles via Web of Science Citing articles via Google Scholar Google Scholar Articles by Chang, W.
