Feeding soy protein concentrate to weanling rats over a one-week period produced a dose-related increase in pancreatic weight due to an increase in acinar cell size. Hyperplastic changes occur simultaneously, as evidenced by an increase in mitotic activity after two days on the test diet. Similar changes were also obtained by feeding soybean Kunitz trypsin inhibitor over the same time period. The results suggest that this approach may be useful as a model to investigate the effect of plant-derived material on the pancreas, in particular proliferative lesions.
