Unlike those experiments described in the previous several reports, a carcinogen was given to pregnant rats in our experiment to induce a tumor similar to yolk sac tumor which often occurs in human cases, aiming at contribution to establishment of an experimental model. Using Wister rat on the 10th day of gestation, ater removal of the fetus, the yolk sac was extracted out of the uterus, and a carcinogen was administered to it. Induced tumor was examined morphologically. By the 16th week after experiment, tumor was induced in 70% out of rats treated. The tumor volume was varied from a bean to a thumb tippize. Histologically, most of them were considered to be teratoma. But in 30% of them, human pure-type yolk sac tumor or the tumor similar to it were observed. Reticular and endodermal sinus or polyvesicular vitelline patterns were also clearly observed. Presence of hyaline body by PAS-staining and AFP by fluorescent antibody method were confirmed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008649 Mesonephroma A rare tumor of the female genital tract, most often the ovary, formerly considered to be derived from mesonephric rests. Two varieties are recognized: (1) clear cell carcinoma, so called because of its histologic resemblance to renal cell carcinoma, and now considered to be of muellerian duct derivation and (2) an embryonal tumor (called also ENDODERMAL SINUS TUMOR and yolk sac tumor), occurring chiefly in children. The latter variety may also arise in the testis. (Dorland, 27th ed) Mesonephromas

D010051 Ovarian Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the OVARY. These neoplasms can be benign or malignant.

D013724 Teratoma A true neoplasm composed of a number of different types of tissue, none of which is native to the area in which it occurs. It is composed of tissues that are derived from three germinal layers, the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm. They are classified histologically as mature (benign) or immature (malignant).
