Description

DMBA has carcinogenic activity as a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). DMBA is used to induce tumor formation in various rodent models[1].

In Vivo

DMBA can be used in animal modeling to construct chemically induced skin carcinogenesis, breast cancer and other cancer models.
DMBA (0-150 mg/kg, p.o.) results in a decrease in spleen weight and in the total lymphocytes recovered from the spleen in C57BL/6 mice. DMBA exhibits a terminal deposition half-life of 45 min at all dose ranges (5-50 mg) in SD rats[5].

1. Induction of breast cancer[2]
Background
DMBA activates AhR, which translocates into nucleus and dimerizes with cofactor ARNT, thus induces the expressions of protooncogenes c-myc.
Specific Mmodeling Methods
Rat: Sprague-Dawley?•?female?•?50 days •140-150 g
Administration: 15-20 mg DMBA ?•?intragastric gavage?•?single dose
Note
1.5-2 g DMBA dissolved in 100 ml sesame oil
Modeling Indicators
Palpation:Detection of mammary cancer in 150 days.
Histology analysis:The tumor exhibits tightly spaced chords epithelial cells, cysts and papillary structures.
Phenotype:develops a temporary cessation in body growth.
