It has been reported that Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a naturally occurring compound In cruclferous vegetables, exerts anticarcinogenic activity In several organs In rodents. The modifying effects of I3C were therefore assessed uging a rat multi-organ carcinogenesis model. A total of 100 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided Into 3 groups. Animals of groups 1 and 2 were sequentially treated with diethylnitrosamine (DEN; 100 mg/kg b.w., i.p.), N-methylnitrosourea (NNU; 20 mg/kg b.w., 4 times for 2 weeks, i.p), and dihydroxy-di-N-propylnitrosauine (DHPN; 0.1% In d.w. for 2 weeks) for 4 weeks (DMD treatment). Animals of groups 1 and 3 were given the diet of 0.25% I3C for 20 weeks after DMD initiation and then were given basal diet for 28 weeks. All animals were sacrificed at week 24 and 52, respectively. I3C has been clearly demonstrated promoting effects on the development of glutathione S-transferase placental form (GST-P) positive hepatic foci at 24 weeks of the experiment. And I3C also exerted promoting potential In the hepatocellular adenoma (4/14; 29%) and the adenoma (7/14; 50%) of the thyroid gland at 52 weeks of the experiment. Therefore, I3C may promote hepatocarcinogenesis and thyroid tumorigenesis in the rat multi-organ carcinogenesis model.

The anticarcinogenic effects of allyl methyl trisulfide(AMT) and methyl propyl disulfide(MPD) were studied in a 28 weeks rat multi-organ carcinogenesis model. Tumor incidence rate was decreased by AMT or MPD treatment comparing with the positive control. AMT treatment significantly decreased the incidence of neoplastic and preneoplastic lesions in the kidney thyroid gland urinary bladder alimentary tract lung and Zymbal's gland. MPD also inhibited incidence of noplastic and preneoplastic lesions in the liver kidney urinary bladder alimentary tract lung and Zymbal's gland but increased that in the thyroid gland. GST-p positive foci in the liver were slightly decreased by AMT or MPD. There was no significant histopathological lesions in AMT or MPD treated group without pretreatment of carcinogens.
