Rodent Tumors of Questionable
Relevance
Rodent-Specific Mode of Action
• Renal tumors secondary to α-2u-
globulin nephropathy
• Urinary bladder tumors
secondary to irritation
• Mesovarian leiomyomas
secondary to β2 receptor agonists
• Carcinoids secondary to H2
antagonists
• Thyroid follicular tumors
• Uterine endometrial carcinoma
secondary to dopamine agonists
• Leydig cell tumors in rats
secondary to hormonal
perturbations
Tumors in Unique Rodent Tissues
• Harderian Gland
• Preputial Gland
• Clitoral Gland
• Zymbal’s Gland
• Forestomach
Α-2u globulin nephropathy
Proposed key events
Chemical exposure and binding to α-2u globulin

Accumulation of the bound α-2u in renal tubular
epithelial cells

Cytotoxicity to renal tubular epithelial cells

Compensatory renal tubular cell proliferation

Development of renal tumors
Α-2u globulin nephropathy
Renal Tubular Adenoma
Α-2u globulin nephropathy
• Animals affected
– Mature male rat under influence of testosterone produces
large amount of α-2u globulin
• Xenobiotics associated with α-2u globulin nephropathy
– JP-4 & other jet fuels hexachloroethane
– Isophorone d-limonene
– Parachlorobenzene Pentachloroethane
– Unleaded gasoline Nitrotoluene
• Unaffected mammals
– Female rats Male and female mice Humans
– Male NCI-Black-Reiter rat
Urinary Bladder Tumors
• Secondary to irritation
– Mechanical irritation from foreign bodies or
calculi
• Affects rats and mice
– Threshold effect – only seen at doses of chemical
that produce calculi
• Agents associated with urinary bladder
tumors
– Uracil Cyclamate
– Chronic irritation
Urinary Bladder Papilloma
Mesovarian Leiomyomas in Rats
• Seen following administration of β2-receptor
adrenergic stimulants
– Proliferation of mesovarian smooth muscle
– Propanolol (adrenergic blocker) prevents formation of
this tumor
• Xenobiotics causing this effect
Salbutamol Terbutaline
• Specific to the rat
– Not seen in mice or hamsters
– Not seen in humans with long history of using β2-
stimulants
Carcinoids (Neuroendocrine Tumors)
in the Rodent Stomach
• Associated with prolonged blockage of acid secretion
– Seen for powerful and long-lasting H2-receptor antagonists
& proton-pump inhibitors given at high doses
– SK&F93479 Omeprazole Butachlor Methyleugenol
• Leads to increased gastrin levels
– Stimulation of neuroendocrine cells leading to hyperplasia
and neoplasia
– Slight hypergastrinemia in humans not associated with
hyperplasia or neoplasia of neuroendocrine cells
• Seen at high doses in rodents
– Humans have low serum gastrin levels (margin of safety)
Neuroendocrine Tumor
(Carcinoid)
Thyroid Follicular Cell Neoplasms
• Caused by altered feedback mechanism resulting in
prolonged stimulation of the thyroid by TSH
• Rats vs. humans lack high-affinity thyroxin-binding globulin,
are more sensitive to inhibition of thyroid peroxidase, are
more sensitive to hepatic enzyme induction
• Categories of altered feedback mechanism
– Interference with iodine uptake & thyroid hormone synthesis or
secretion
• sulfonamides
– Interference with metabolism of T4 or T3
• FD&C Red No. 3 (erythrosine)
– Increased metabolism & excretion of thyroid hormones
• Phenobarbital Polychlorinated biphenyls
Thyroid Follicular Adenoma
Uterine Endometrial Carcinomas in
Rats
• Seen in older rats associated with estrogen
dominance
• Permanent estrus and endometrial
stimulation
– Leads to endometrial carcinoma
• Seen in rats treated with dopamine agonists
– Bromocriptine
• Similar endocrine imbalance does not occur in
women
Uterine Endometrial Carcinoma
Leydig Cell Tumors in Rats
• Interference with Leydig cell control mechanisms
(7 different types of interference)
• All involve the hypothalamic-pituitary-testis axis
• Xenobiotics associated with rat Leydig cell tumors
– Cimetidine Finasteride Flutamide
– Gembibrozil Indomethacin DEHP
• Rats vs humans
– Rats have 14 times more LH receptors
– LHRH receptors unique to the rat

Forestomach Tumors
• Susceptible to local combination of chronic wounding (irritation)
and mutagenicity
• More likely to develop from direct exposure; more likely in gavage
studies
• Metabolically active site
• Decreased diet-related spontaneous tumor rate in mice
• In 8/9 and 9/9 cases of only tumor in male or female rats,
respectively, also tumor in opposite sex.
• In 7/8 and 12/16 cases of only tumor in male or female mice,
respectively, also tumor in opposite sex.
Site Concordance
Target organ concordance need not be a prerequisite for evaluating the
implications of animal study results for humans.
There is evidence that growth control mechanisms at the level of the cell
are homologous among mammals, but these mechanisms are not
necessarily site concordant.

Tumors in Unique Rodent Tissues
• Harderian Gland
• Preputial Gland
• Clitoral Gland
• Zymbal’s Gland
• Forestomach
Concerns about the significance
of these to human cancer risk
can be addressed using the
mode of action/human relevance
framework approach.

Rodent tumors of questionable relevance to man

  • 1. Xenobiotic-induced Rodent Tumors of Questionable Relevance to Human Cancer Risk R. R. Maronpot Maronpot@me.com Photomicrographs courtesy of the National Toxicology Program (http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov)
  • 2. Rodent Tumors of Questionable Relevance Rodent-Specific Mode of Action • Renal tumors secondary to α-2u- globulin nephropathy • Urinary bladder tumors secondary to irritation • Mesovarian leiomyomas secondary to β2 receptor agonists • Carcinoids secondary to H2 antagonists • Thyroid follicular tumors • Uterine endometrial carcinoma secondary to dopamine agonists • Leydig cell tumors in rats secondary to hormonal perturbations Tumors in Unique Rodent Tissues • Harderian Gland • Preputial Gland • Clitoral Gland • Zymbal’s Gland • Forestomach
  • 3. Α-2u globulin nephropathy Proposed key events Chemical exposure and binding to α-2u globulin  Accumulation of the bound α-2u in renal tubular epithelial cells  Cytotoxicity to renal tubular epithelial cells  Compensatory renal tubular cell proliferation  Development of renal tumors
  • 6. Α-2u globulin nephropathy • Animals affected – Mature male rat under influence of testosterone produces large amount of α-2u globulin • Xenobiotics associated with α-2u globulin nephropathy – JP-4 & other jet fuels hexachloroethane – Isophorone d-limonene – Parachlorobenzene Pentachloroethane – Unleaded gasoline Nitrotoluene • Unaffected mammals – Female rats Male and female mice Humans – Male NCI-Black-Reiter rat
  • 7. Urinary Bladder Tumors • Secondary to irritation – Mechanical irritation from foreign bodies or calculi • Affects rats and mice – Threshold effect – only seen at doses of chemical that produce calculi • Agents associated with urinary bladder tumors – Uracil Cyclamate – Chronic irritation
  • 9. Mesovarian Leiomyomas in Rats • Seen following administration of β2-receptor adrenergic stimulants – Proliferation of mesovarian smooth muscle – Propanolol (adrenergic blocker) prevents formation of this tumor • Xenobiotics causing this effect Salbutamol Terbutaline • Specific to the rat – Not seen in mice or hamsters – Not seen in humans with long history of using β2- stimulants
  • 10. Carcinoids (Neuroendocrine Tumors) in the Rodent Stomach • Associated with prolonged blockage of acid secretion – Seen for powerful and long-lasting H2-receptor antagonists & proton-pump inhibitors given at high doses – SK&F93479 Omeprazole Butachlor Methyleugenol • Leads to increased gastrin levels – Stimulation of neuroendocrine cells leading to hyperplasia and neoplasia – Slight hypergastrinemia in humans not associated with hyperplasia or neoplasia of neuroendocrine cells • Seen at high doses in rodents – Humans have low serum gastrin levels (margin of safety)
  • 12. Thyroid Follicular Cell Neoplasms • Caused by altered feedback mechanism resulting in prolonged stimulation of the thyroid by TSH • Rats vs. humans lack high-affinity thyroxin-binding globulin, are more sensitive to inhibition of thyroid peroxidase, are more sensitive to hepatic enzyme induction • Categories of altered feedback mechanism – Interference with iodine uptake & thyroid hormone synthesis or secretion • sulfonamides – Interference with metabolism of T4 or T3 • FD&C Red No. 3 (erythrosine) – Increased metabolism & excretion of thyroid hormones • Phenobarbital Polychlorinated biphenyls
  • 14. Uterine Endometrial Carcinomas in Rats • Seen in older rats associated with estrogen dominance • Permanent estrus and endometrial stimulation – Leads to endometrial carcinoma • Seen in rats treated with dopamine agonists – Bromocriptine • Similar endocrine imbalance does not occur in women
  • 16. Leydig Cell Tumors in Rats • Interference with Leydig cell control mechanisms (7 different types of interference) • All involve the hypothalamic-pituitary-testis axis • Xenobiotics associated with rat Leydig cell tumors – Cimetidine Finasteride Flutamide – Gembibrozil Indomethacin DEHP • Rats vs humans – Rats have 14 times more LH receptors – LHRH receptors unique to the rat
  • 19. Rodent Tumors of Questionable Relevance Rodent-Specific Mode of Action • Renal tumors secondary to α-2u- globulin nephropathy • Urinary bladder tumors secondary to irritation • Mesovarian leiomyomas secondary to β2 receptor agonists • Carcinoids secondary to H2 antagonists • Thyroid follicular tumors • Uterine endometrial carcinoma secondary to dopamine agonists • Leydig cell tumors in rats secondary to hormonal perturbations Tumors in Unique Rodent Tissues • Harderian Gland • Preputial Gland • Clitoral Gland • Zymbal’s Gland • Forestomach

  1. Mallory-Heidenhain stain
  2. Male NCI-Black-Reiter rat lack genes to produce alpha-2u globulin in the liver.
  3. Nitrosamine + NaCl (Oyasu); chalk powder + carcinogen (Mobley)
  4. Enterochromaffin cells. Inhibition of acid secretion by parietal cells leads to increased gastrin secretion by G cells in stomach.
  5. Example from methyleugenol. Loss of parietal cells due to mucosal atrophy. Increased gastrin and increased proliferation of neuroendocrine cells. Methyleugenol, natural constituent. GRAS flavoring agent in a variety of foods. Insect attractant.
  6. Sulfonamides – sensitive species – rat 500 times more sensitive than primates; rat, mouse, dog. Insensitive primates, guinea pig, chicken. FD&amp;C Red No. 3 – no effect in rats unless there was increase in TSH (threshold)
  7. CNS – decreased prolactindownregulation of LH receptore on Leydig cellsdecreased testosterone productioncompensatory increase in circulating LH proliferation of Leygid cells. Agents that block androgen receptors.
  8. 90 of 552 studies
  9. MOUSE studies
  10. The 2 only male rat tumors also were the only tumors in female rats
