The effects of indomethacin on the development of N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine (OH-BBn)-induced urinary bladder tumors were evaluated in male BDF mice. Preliminary feeding studies revealed that the highest non-toxic dose of indomethacin was 15 mg/kg of AIN-76A diet; thus, dose levels of 15 and 7.5 mg/kg of diet were selected to determine the chemopreventive efficacy of this agent. Diet supplementation with indomethacin was initiated when the mice were 49 days old and continued for the duration of the study. Starting one week after indomethacin treatment, OH-BBN was administered 1x/week for eight weeks. Upon termination of the study (180 days after the initial carcinogen administration), all tumors in the urinary bladder were removed and classified histologically. Mice receiving carcinogen and no indomethacin supplementation had a 24% incidence of urinary bladder tumors; mice receiving 7.5 mg/kg and 15 mg of indomethacin had a 5% and 0% incidence of urinary bladder tumors, respectively. The significant reduction of OH-BBN-induced urinary bladder tumors by indomethacin is consistent with previous suggestions that prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors are effective inhibitors of carcinogenesis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007213 Indomethacin A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES. Amuno,Indocid,Indocin,Indomet 140,Indometacin,Indomethacin Hydrochloride,Metindol,Osmosin

D008810 Mice, Inbred C57BL One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.
