Effect of Salmonella enteritidis 11RX infection on two-stage skin carcinogenesis in mice. 1978

L K Ashman, and I Kotlarski

S. enteritidis 11RX infection inhibits the growth of a number of transplantable tumours in mice. In addition, oral infection of mice with S. enteritidis 11RX inhibits colon carcinogenesis by 1,2 dimethylhydrazine. This study has examined the effect of S. enteritidis 11RX infection on two-stage skin carcinogenesis in mice using 7,12 dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) as initiator and croton oil as promoter. No protection was observed in either LACA or (BALB/c x C57Bl/6J)F1 mice when live 11RX was repeatedly administered i.v. during promotion. When a protein antigen extract from S. enteritidis 11RX was administered i.v. to previously immunised mice during skin carcinogenesis, significant protection was observed both in terms of the number of mice with papillomas and the number of papillomas per mouse. However, the protection was weak and transient. LACA mice were much more susceptible to skin carcinogenesis by DMBA and croton oil than were (BALB/c x C57B1/6J)F1 mice. A preliminary study indicated that BALB/c, C57B1 and CBA mice were also relatively resistant to skin carcinogensis.
