Research Abstract |
The aims of this study were to establish a model of colon cancer by ionizing radiation in rats and to compare the effects of dietary fiber feeding on cancer development with those in a chemically-induced colon cancer model. We first succeed to develop precancerous legion, aberrant crypt foci (ACF), in rat colonic mucosa by ionizing radiation. The properties of radiation-induced ACF were low frequency, but high multiplicity compared with the chemically induced ACF Feeding of a highly fermentable dietary fibers, sugarbeet fiber, suppressed ACF in the chemical model, but not the radiation model. In the chemical model, a low fermentable, soluble fiber prevent the development of colonic ACF just feeding fiber before, but not after a challenge of carcinogen. Also, a product of the colonic fermentation, butyric acid, prevented the development of ACF in the rat colon using the chemically-induced cancer model.
