The therapeutic effects of alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) on rats with bladder tumors induced by N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine (BBN) were examined. Eight-week-old male Wistar rats were given 0.05% BBN in their drinking water for a period of 4 weeks. Therapy (0.1% DFMO in their drinking water) was started at week 4 and all rats were killed at week 60. DFMO was seen to significantly reduce the incidence, the mean number and the total size of tumors. No side-effects of DFMO were noted, except alopecia, which started at month 7 of the therapy.
研究了α-二氟甲基鸟氨酸(DFMO)对N-丁基-N-(4-羟基丁基)亚硝胺(BBN)诱导的大鼠膀胱肿瘤的治疗效果。给8周龄雄性Wistar大鼠饮用含0.05%BBN的水,持续4周。在第4周开始治疗(饮用含0.1%DFMO的水),所有大鼠在第60周处死。结果发现DFMO能显著降低肿瘤的发生率、平均数量和总体积。除了在治疗第7个月开始出现的脱发外,未观察到DFMO的其他副作用。
