Effect of ornithine decarboxylase inhibitor on tetragastrin treatment of gastric carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine in Wistar rats.
The effects of combined administration of tetragastrin and the ornithine decarboxylase inhibitor 1,3-diaminopropane (DAP) on the incidence and number of gastric cancers induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), and the BUdR labelling indices of the fundic and antral mucosae, were investigated in inbred Wistar rats. Rats were given drinking water containing 2.5 g/l of DAP ad libitum and received alternate-day injections of 1 mg/kg body weight of tetragastrin in depot form after 25 weeks of oral treatment with MNNG. At week 52, prolonged administration of tetragastrin alone resulted in a significant reduction in the incidence and number of gastric cancers and a significant increase or decrease in the labelling indices of the fundic and antral mucosae, respectively. Concomitant administration of tetragastrin and DAP had no effect on the inhibition by tetragastrin of gastric carcinogenesis. With this treatment, the labelling index was significantly reduced in the fundic mucosa but not in the antral mucosa. These results suggest that ODC inhibitor does not attenuate tetragastrin inhibition of gastric carcinogenesis, and that anti-trophic action of tetragastrin on antral mucosa may be related to tetragastrin inhibition of gastric carcinogenesis.

Effect of 6-hydroxydopamine on gastric carcinogenesis and tetragastrin inhibition of gastric carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine in Wistar rats.
The effects of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) on gastric carcinogenesis, on inhibition by tetragastrin of gastric carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, and on the tissue catecholamine concentrations of the gastric wall and the labeling index of the gastric mucosa were investigated in inbred Wistar rats. Rats received s.c. injections of tetragastrin (1 mg/kg of body weight every other day) in depot form, i.p. injections of 6-OHDA (42 mg/kg twice within 24 h and 105 mg/kg every 2 wk), or injections of both compounds after 25 wk of p.o. treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (100 micrograms/ml). At Wk 52, prolonged administration of tetragastrin or 6-OHDA had significantly reduced the incidence and the number of adenocarcinomas. Combined administration of tetragastrin and 6-OHDA significantly enhanced the inhibitory effects of tetragastrin or 6-OHDA on gastric carcinogenesis. Administration of 6-OHDA but not tetragastrin, caused a significant decrease in norepinephrine concentrations in the antral portion of the gastric wall. Rats treated with tetragastrin or 6-OHDA had a significantly lower labelling index of the antral mucosa, and this index was significantly decreased by combined administration of tetragastrin and 6-OHDA, as compared with labeling indices observed after treatment with tetragastrin or 6-OHDA alone. These findings indicate that 6-OHDA exerts a protective effect against gastric carcinogenesis and enhances the inhibitory effect of tetragastrin on gastric carcinogenesis. This effect of 6-OHDA may be related to its ability to inhibit cell proliferation of the antral mucosa.

Effect of cimetidine on inhibition by tetragastrin of carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine in Wistar rats.
The effects of combined administration of cimetidine and tetragastrin on gastric acid secretion, the labeling index of the gastric mucosa, and the incidence of gastric adenocarcinomas induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine were investigated in inbred Wistar rats. Prolonged administration of tetragastrin in depot form after treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine resulted in a significant increase in gastric acid secretion, a significant decrease in the labeling index of the antral mucosa, and a significant decrease in the incidence of adenocarcinomas of the glandular stomach. Administration of cimetidine at 20 mg, but not 10 mg, per kg body weight with tetragastrin significantly reduced the gastric acid secretion induced by tetragastrin alone but did not influence the labeling index of the antral mucosa or the inhibitory effect of tetragastrin on gastric carcinogenesis. These findings indicate that gastric acid secretion has no influence on the development of gastric adenocarcinomas and that the inhibitory effect of tetragastrin on gastric carcinogenesis may be related to its effect in decreasing proliferation of cells in the antral mucosa.

Enhancement by propranolol of the inhibitory effect of tetragastrin on gastric carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine in Wistar rats.
The effects of combined administration of propranolol and tetragastrin on gastric acid secretion and the incidence and histological types of gastric adenocarcinomas induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine were investigated in inbred Wistar rats. Prolonged administration of tetragastrin, 1 but not 0.2 mg/kg body weight in depot form after treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine significantly reduced the incidence of adenocarcinoma of the glandular stomach. The adenocarcinomas that did develop in rats treated with the higher dose of tetragastrin had high mucin-producing activity and showed little or no typical glandular structure. A combination of propranolol (2 mg/kg) and tetragastrin (1 mg/kg) did not influence the inhibitory effect of gastrin on gastric carcinogenesis. However, concomitant administration of propranolol (2 mg/kg) and tetragastrin (0.2 mg/kg) caused a significant increase in gastric acid secretion and a reduction in the incidence of gastric carcinomas. With this treatment, the incidence of adenocarcinoma was similar to that of treatment with tetragastrin (1 mg/kg). Histological examinations showed that like the cancers in control rats, the adenocarcinomas induced in these rats were all highly differentiated.

Inhibitory effects of tetragastrin and histamine on carcinogenesis in the small intestines of W rats by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine.
The effects of tetragastrin and histamine on the incidence and histology of tumors induced in the small intestine by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine [(MNNG) CAS: 70-25-7] were investigated in male W rats. Animals were given MNNG at 150 micrograms/ml in their drinking water for 25 weeks and then 300 micrograms tetragastrin or 4 mg histamine dihydrochloride sc per day in depot form. Administration of tetragastrin or histamine after MNNG treatment resulted in a significant increase in gastric acid secretion and a significant reduction in the incidence of tumors in the duodenum; however, only histamine decreased the incidence of tumors in the jejunum. Histologically, the tumors induced in the small intestine were mostly adenocarcinomas, and their histologic type was not affected by either tetragastrin or histamine.
