Abstract
Preclinical modelling is a crucial component of advancing the understanding of cancer biology and therapeutic development. Several models exist for understanding the pathobiology of bladder cancer and evaluating therapeutics. N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-nitrosamine (BBN)-induced bladder cancer is a commonly used model that recapitulates many of the features of human disease. Particularly in mice, BBN is a preferred laboratory model owing to a high level of reproducibility, high genetic fidelity to the human condition, and its relative ease of use. However, important aspects of the model are often overlooked in laboratory studies. Moreover, the advent of new models has yielded a variety of methodologies that complement the use of BBN. Toxicokinetics, histopathology, molecular genetics and sex can differ between available models and are important factors to consider in bladder cancer modelling.

Abstract
There is growing interest in reducing Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) side effects while keeping intact its therapeutic efficacy. In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy of Sclerotia of Polyporus umbellatus FRIES (Zhuling) and its main ingredient Polyporus Polysaccharide (PPS) to attenuate side effects of BCG therapy in vivo. The results show that bladder cancer development in model rats exhibited significantly reduced cancer invasiveness with Zhuling PPS combined with BCG. Flow cytometric (FCM) analysis showed expression of costimulatory molecules CD86, CD40, and TLR4/CD14 significantly increased with Zhuling PPS in combination with BCG. Similarly, immunohistochemical analysis revealed stronger CD86 and CD40 staining. Our findings show Zhuling PPS strongly reduced side effects and displayed synergistic effects during BCG instillation in rat bladder cancer models. The findings also suggest that the attenuation effect may result from direct activation of dendritic cell (DC) TLR4.

Abstract
Isothiocyanates are a well-known class of cancer chemopreventive agents, and broccoli sprouts are a rich source of several isothiocyanates. We report herein that dietary administration to rats of a freeze-dried aqueous extract of broccoli sprouts significantly and dose-dependently inhibited bladder cancer development induced by N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine. The incidence, multiplicity, size, and progression of bladder cancer were all inhibited by the extract, while the extract itself caused no histologic changes in the bladder. Moreover, inhibition of bladder carcinogenesis by the extract was associated with significant induction of glutathione S-transferase and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 in the bladder, enzymes that are important protectants against oxidants and carcinogens. Isothiocyanates are metabolized to dithiocarbamates in vivo, but dithiocarbamates readily dissociate to isothiocyanates. We found that >70% of the isothiocyanates present in the extract were excreted in the urine as isothiocyanate equivalents (isothiocyanates + dithiocarbamates) in 12 h after a single p.o. dose, indicating high bioavailability and rapid urinary excretion. In addition, the concentrations of isothiocyanate equivalents in the urine of extract-treated rats were 2 to 3 orders of magnitude higher than those in plasma, indicating that the bladder epithelium, the major site of bladder cancer development, is most exposed to p.o. dosed isothiocyanate. Indeed, tissue levels of isothiocyanate equivalents in the bladder were significantly higher than in the liver. In conclusion, broccoli sprout extract is a highly promising substance for bladder cancer prevention and the isothiocyanates in the extract are selectively delivered to the bladder epithelium through urinary excretion.

Abstract
Differences in susceptibility to N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN)-induced urinary bladder carcinogenesis between two substrains of male Sprague-Dawley rats were examined. One substrain was SD/gShi, which has spontaneous hypospermatogenesis, and the other was SD/cShi, which is a sister strain of SD/gShi, and has normal testis but spontaneous hydronephrosis. SD/gShi rats had a lower incidence of urinary bladder tumors and had lower 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine labeling indices in the urinary bladder epithelium than SD/cShi rats when BBN was given. SD/gShi rats had significantly lower urinary concentrations of N-butyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine (BCPN), which is a metabolite and proximate carcinogen of BBN. In vitro analysis also showed significantly less BCPN formation, using an S9 mix derived from the liver and kidney, in SD/gShi rats than in SD/cShi rats. BCPN formation in vitro was markedly inhibited by non-selective cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibitors, but not alcohol dehydrogenase inhibitor. However, analysis of CYP proteins including hepatic CYP1A1/2, 2B1/2, 2E1, and 3A2 and renal CYP2E1 and 3A2 revealed no significant variation in levels in either tissue in the groups. There were also no significant intergroup differences in the mutagenicity of carcinogens, including heterocyclic amines and N-nitrosamines, activated by CYP1A1/2 and CYP2E1 and/or CYP2B1/2, respectively. These results suggest that SD/gShi rats are less susceptible to BBN, possibly because less BCPN is produced by CYP isoforms other than those investigated. A contribution of CYP4B1 to the strain difference is also possible.

Abstract
We studied the susceptibilities to N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN)-induced urinary bladder carcinogenesis of male Long-Evans Cinnamon (LEC), F344 and Long-Evans Agouti (LEA) rats. Male rats (n=21) were given 0.1% BBN in their drinking water from week 6, 8 and 10 for one week, and killed in week 56. The incidences of transitional cell tumors (papillomas plus carcinomas) in BBN-treated LEC and F344 rats were 12% and 76%, respectively (P<0.001, experiment 1), and those in LEC and LEA rats were 11% and 95%, respectively (P<0.001, experiment 2). When male LEC and F344 rats were given 0.1% BBN in their drinking water for 7 days, the intake of BBN and the urinary concentration of its active metabolite, N-butyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine (BCPN), were higher in the LEC rats (P<0.01). The urinary pHs of untreated LEC and F344 rats were similar between week 6 and 30. The urinary copper concentration was lower in LEC rats before jaundice than in F344 rats, but its concentrations in 28- and 50-week-old LEC rats were 1.7 and 2.3 times those in F344 rats. In a two-stage carcinogenesis study using F344 rats, i.p. injections of cupric nitrilotriacetate increased urinary copper excretion, and inhibited BBN-induced bladder carcinogenesis. In a two-stage carcinogenesis study using LEC rats, oral administration of D-penicillamine decreased urinary copper excretion, and increased BBN-induced bladder cancer, although the difference was not significant. These data show that LEC rats are resistant to bladder carcinogenesis and suggest that urinary copper has a significant role in their resistance.

Abstract
Dimethylarsinic acid (DMAA) is a major metabolite of inorganic arsenicals in mammals. In the present study, we investigated its promoting effects on urinary bladder carcinogenesis in NCI-Black-Reiter (NBR) rats, which lack alpha2u-globulin synthesizing ability. Male 9-14-week-old NBR rats were treated sequentially with 0.05% N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-nitrosamine (BBN) for 4 weeks and then given 100 ppm DMAA in their drinking water (group 1) for 32 weeks. Induction of preneoplastic lesions (papillary or nodular hyperplasia) in this DMAA-treated group was significantly increased as compared to the carcinogen alone control group (P < 0.01). The development of carcinomas was also enhanced and a significant increase in the 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) labeling index of the urinary bladder epithelial cells was observed for the DMAA treatment group. These results indicate that DMAA has promoting effects on urinary bladder carcinogenesis even in NBR rats, so its effects are not dependent on the presence of alpha2u-globulin.

Abstract
In the two-stage rat bladder carcinogenesis model using N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN) as an initiator and sodium L-ascorbate (SA) as a promoter, we found a notable strain difference between F344/DuCrj (F344) and WS/Shi (WS) rats in susceptibility to the promoting effect of SA. Twenty each of F344, WS and reciprocal F1 hybrid rats were given 0.05% BBN in their drinking water for 4 weeks and then a basal diet with (BBN-SA group) or without (BBN group) a 5% SA supplement for 32 weeks. In F344 and also in reciprocal F1 hybrids, the number of tumors per rat was significantly higher in the BBN-SA group than in the BBN group (P < 0.0001). In contrast, WS rats were not significantly affected by either treatment (P = 0.8). These findings indicate that F344 rats are highly susceptible to the promoter effect of SA, but WS rats are not. Linkage analysis of 108 WSx (WS x F344) F1 backcrosses revealed that this difference was related to a quantitative trait locus mapped on rat Chr. 17 (maximum LOD score, 3.86) named Bladder Tumor Susceptible-1 and possibly another locus on Chr. 5 (maximum LOD score, 2.39). This study has provided the first evidence that host genes influence the risk of bladder cancer development.

Abstract
Rat strain differences in sensitivity to the promoting effect of sodium L-ascorbate (SA) on the development of urinary bladder tumors were investigated. In experiment 1, WS/Shi (WS), ODS/Shiod/od (ODS), and LEW/Crj (LEW) rats were initiated with 0.05% N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-nitrosamine (BBN) in their drinking water and subsequently given basal Oriental MF diet (M) with or without a 5% SA supplement. In LEW rats the SA treatment increased the induction of neoplastic lesions in the urinary bladder, whereas WS and ODS animals proved unresponsive to its promoting effects. In experiment 2, WS and F344 rats were maintained on two kinds of commercial basal diets, M and CLEA CA-1 (C), during administration of SA, since dietary factors can influence promoting effects. Feeding M during the promotion period in F344 rats yielded significantly more neoplastic lesions than feeding C, but in WS rats no such dietary influence was apparent. In experiment 3, strain differences in biosynthesis of alpha-2u-globulin (alpha 1a-g) were assessed because both alpha 2a-g in the urine and administration of sodium salts of organic acids such as SA have been reported to be involved in tumor promotion. Immunohistochemical analysis of renal tubules and Western blotting analysis of urine revealed the presence of alpha 2a-g in all three strains examined. These data suggest that differences in susceptibility to promotion are due to genetic factors rather than dietary factors and the ability to synthesize alpha 2a-g.

Abstract
The susceptibility of pepsinogen-altered pyloric glands (PAPG) and neoplastic glandular stomach lesions induced by N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and catechol or sodium cholate in Nagase analbuminemic rats (NAR) was compared to Sprague-Dawley rats (SD). Male NAR and SD rats were given a single dose of 80 mg/kg body weight of MNNG by gastric intubation and, 2 weeks later, fed basal diet containing 0.8% catechol or 0.3% sodium cholate for 18 weeks. The animals were killed at the end of week 20 or after maintenance on basal diet at week 60. The number of pepsinogen-altered pyloric glands at week 20 was significantly (P < 0.001) higher in NAR fed either catechol or sodium cholate compared with SD rats. At week 60, adenomatous hyperplasias and adenocarcinomas were observed in 7 (88%; P < 0.01) and 3 (38%; P < 0.01) of 8 NAR fed catechol and in 4 (22%) and 0 of 18 SD rats, respectively. The results show that the frequency of PAPG in NAR and SD rats is related to the susceptibility to glandular stomach carcinoma. PAPG is a useful endpoint lesion for evaluation of gastric carcinogenicity in a 20-week carcinogenicity test, and NAR are sensitive for glandular stomach carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Nagase analbuminemic rats (NARs) were compared to the Sprague-Dawley (SD) stock in a medium-term assay system for hepatocarcinogenesis regarding their susceptibilities to the influence of chemicals on the development of glutathione S-transferase, placental form, positive (GST-P+) foci. Two weeks after initiation with diethylnitrosamine (DEN), the animals were exposed alternatively to 0.06% 3'-methyl-4-dimethyl-aminoazobenzene (3'-Me-DAB), 50 ppm DEN, 0.25% ethionine, 1% clofibrate, and 1% butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) for a 6-wk period. Adequate controls included groups only initiated with DEN or treated with each test compound alone. For evaluation of the modifying potential of the chemicals, indices were generated by using the mean values obtained for number and area of GST-P+ foci after each treatment. Comparison between these indices suggests that SD rats were relatively more sensitive than NARs to the modifying effects of complete carcinogens (3'-Me-DAB and DEN). The strains were similarly-susceptible to the promoting influence of ethionine, a nongenotoxic carcinogen. The inhibitory influence of BHA was more intense in NARs, whereas in both strains clofibrate was associated to similarly reduced values for number and area of GST-P+ foci. The degree of susceptibility of each strain to the modifying influence of chemicals on foci development depended on the chemical agent investigated.

Abstract
A time- and dose-dependent study of N-ethyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (EHBN) bladder carcinogenesis was performed in nude mice maintained on tap water containing 0.025% EHBN for 4, 12, and 20 weeks ad libitum. A total of 13 invasive tumors, comprising 11 transitional cell carcinomas (TCCs) (84.6%) and 2 squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) (15.4%), were found. Compared with previous results for B6C3F1 mice exposed to the same EHBN insult, the numbers of invasive carcinomas induced in nude mice, and especially of SCCs, were low. In order to ascertain whether this difference in cancer incidence between nude and B6C3F1 mice was due to variation in urinary excretion, the metabolism of EHBN was also investigated and compared with that of N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN). Respective total urinary excretions over 48 hr of N-ethyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine (ECPN) or N-butyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine (BCPN), the ultimate carcinogenic species of EHBN or BBN, were 822.4 +/- 41.4 micrograms and 530.4 +/- 81.0 micrograms, respectively, in nude mice, and 800.6 +/- 83.7 micrograms and 407.8 +/- 69.7 micrograms, respectively, in B6C3F1 mice. In conclusion, although it is apparent that nude mice have a low susceptibility to EHBN induction of urinary bladder cancer, this does not appear to be dependent on reduced metabolism to the active form.

Abstract
Sodium saccharin, at high doses in the diet, has been reported to cause hyperplasia of the forestomach (squamous portion of stomach), at the limiting ridge in F344 rats, in addition to its potential to induce proliferative effects on the urinary bladder epithelium. We have characterized this hyperplasia of the squamous epithelium of the forestomach at the limiting ridge in F344 and Sprague-Dawley rats given various doses of sodium saccharin for 4 to 95 wk. With increasing doses of sodium saccharin, the limiting ridge of the forestomach showed dose-related morphological changes: basal-cell hyperplasia, early papillary hyperplasia with basal-cell hyperplasia and papillary hyperplasia. Calcium saccharin in Prolab diet caused hyperplasia of the forestomach at the limiting ridge, similar to that caused by sodium saccharin. The severity of hyperplasia was influenced by the type of diet and by the strain of rats. AIN-76A diet without added sodium saccharin caused basal-cell hyperplasia in F344 rats, whereas Prolab, Purina and NIH-07 diets without added sodium saccharin had little or no effect on the forestomach. The effect of AIN-76A diet alone persisted through 95 wk of feeding without any evidence of tumour formation. In Sprague-Dawley rats, which appeared more sensitive to effects on the forestomach than F344 rats, Prolab 3200 and Purina diets without sodium saccharin caused basal-cell hyperplasia in more than half of the treated rats. The forestomach hyperplasia associated with AIN-76A or saccharin administration appears to be mild, limited in extent to the limiting ridge, and not associated with carcinogenesis.

Abstract
The effects of sodium o-phenylphenate (Na-OPP) treatment on urinary bladder epithelium were examined in male F344 rats, B6C3F1 mice, Syrian golden hamsters and Hartley guinea pigs. Na-OPP was incorporated into diet at a dose of 2% and administered for 4, 8, 12, 24, 36 or 48 weeks. Simple and papillary or nodular (PN) hyperplasias were evident on light microscopy and pleomorphic microvilli demonstrated by scanning electron microscopy were only observed in rats, the lesions becoming more advanced with continued chemical feeding. In mice, hamsters and guinea pigs, proliferative lesions relating to Na-OPP administration were not observed. No significant differences in urinary pH, osmolality or crystal formation were apparent between the various animal species. Since carcinogenicity has been demonstrated for Na-OPP in rats but not in mice, the present findings suggest that Na-OPP might not exert urinary bladder carcinogenic potential in hamsters and guinea pigs.

Abstract
Much information on the development of bladder cancers and its modification has accumulated. It is generally considered that the presence of chemicals in the environment including carcinogens and modifiers (promoters, inhibitors, anti-promoters, etc.) is responsible for the geographical variation in human neoplasia including urinary bladder cancer development. A diagrammatic representation of the possible interactions between environmental factors and tumor development in man is shown in Fig. 6. Thus if potent carcinogens or promoters are present, neoplasia results, with tumor death occurring within an individual's normal lifetime. However, lack of such substances or the existence of powerful inhibitory factors is presumed to slow down the process, so that the normal life-span is not affected. It is therefore of prime importance for thorough awareness of the factors involved to be generated.
