OBJECTIVE Progress in cancer treatment and diagnosis has made second cancer after medical radiation exposure a particular concern among childhood cancer survivors. Calorie restriction (CR) is a broadly effective cancer prevention strategy, although its effects on radiation-induced intestinal tumours are unclear. Here we examined the cancer-preventative efficacy of a CR diet at different starting ages on radiation induction of intestinal tumours in mice. METHODS Male C3B6F1 ApcMin/+ mice were irradiated with 0 or 2 Gy of X-rays at 2 weeks of age. After an interval of 2, 8 or 18 weeks, mice were fed with a non-CR (95 kcal/week/mouse) or CR (65 kcal/week/mouse) diet. Intestinal tumours were evaluated for number, size distribution and malignancy. RESULTS CR suppressed the size and progression of both spontaneous and radiation-induced intestinal tumours depending on age at starting of CR. CR diets were effective even administered to adult mice. CONCLUSIONS CR was effective for suppression of tumour progression, which was accelerated by radiation exposure. Use of CR might be a useful cancer-prevention strategy for radiation-induced tumours of the intestinal tract.

D000367 Age Factors Age as a constituent element or influence contributing to the production of a result. It may be applicable to the cause or the effect of a circumstance. It is used with human or animal concepts but should be differentiated from AGING, a physiological process, and TIME FACTORS which refers only to the passage of time.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D014965 X-Rays Penetrating electromagnetic radiation emitted when the inner orbital electrons of an atom are excited and release radiant energy. X-ray wavelengths range from 1 pm to 10 nm. Hard X-rays are the higher energy, shorter wavelength X-rays. Soft x-rays or Grenz rays are less energetic and longer in wavelength. The short wavelength end of the X-ray spectrum overlaps the GAMMA RAYS wavelength range. The distinction between gamma rays and X-rays is based on their radiation source.
