Morpholine oleic acid salt (MOAS) was administered to groups of 50 male and 50 female B6C3F1 mice in the drinking-water at levels of 0, 0.25 and 1.0%. Both sexes given 1.0% MOAS and females given 0.25% showed growth retardation. Significant increases in blood-urea nitrogen concentrations were only observed in the 1.0% male group. The incidence of squamous-cell hyperplasia of the forestomach epithelium was significantly higher in the males given 1.0% than in the controls. The male mice given 0.25% MOAS had a significantly reduced incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in comparison with the control group and this trend was indicated also in the 1.0% group. This experiment did not demonstrate any carcinogenic effect of MOAS in mice at levels up to 1.0% in the drinking-water.

D005753 Gastric Mucosa Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.

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.
