Introduction
Hamsters are desirable test sub3eccs for tobacco smoke-inhalation
studies because they have a much greater' resistance to toxic effects
of nicotine than rats or mice (BERNFELJ and UOMBUP.GER, 1972). 2 strains
of inbred hamsters (BIO hamsters from Telaco, Bar Harbor, Maine) were
used in the present study in order to achieve reproducibility of re-
sults and to detect possible strain-related differences in response
to tobacco smoke.
Materials and Methods
2 strains, the 810 87.20 and BIO 15.16, :+ere selected for chronic
toxicity experiments. All animals we:ched 108 : 4 q at the teginning
of the chronic studies. Only males were :,sed, r.oused in groups of 6
in 12 x 14 x 6.5-inch polypropylene cages. San-I-Cel, Deodor grade,
was used as bedding material. The ani-ai rccm tumperature was kept
between 720 and 760F. Fluorescent bulbs were tne only light source
and were automatically controlled to operate tetaeen 7:00 a.m. and
7:00 p.m. The animals received ::ayne Mouse Breeder Blox and fresh
tap water ad li5it::m.
Modified Walton reverse smoking ^ac.`.ines were used, as described
elsewhere iHOFFw',:;:: and t:1":CER, 19-01. In :ncse machines, air is
pushed through lighted cigarettes by applying positive pressure at
the burning end.
All animals wore well fitting, perranently-actac.".ed, felt rings around
their necks (3/16" thick, 2" outside diamet.r, and 5/8-3/i" inside
diameter, depending on the size of the hans:er). The felt rings were
reinforced on both sides by thin, ring-snapid aluminum plates of
slightly smaller dimensions (1-7/8" outside diameter and 15/16" inside
diameter). The heads of the animals were Lnser:,j into the smoking
machine by means of these collars, so that only their heads were in
contact with the smoke. The bodies remained outside the machine, firr,-
ly restrained ty the collars, thus eliminating the need to confine
the animals in tubes with attendant excessi:e s.cating and stress.
6 animals could be exposed simultaneously to smcRe inhalation. Since
the felt collars prevented the animals :rom groor.inq their eyes, these
were washed with penicillin solution on a co:tcn swat once a day,
5 days/week.
Only 1R1 Kentucky Reference cigarettes were used. They are produced
by, and were obtained from, the University of Kcntucky, Tobacco and
Health Research Institute, Kentucky Researcn Foindation. Compositions
of the Reference cigarette (1R1) at 12i moisture were as follows
(ATKINSON, 1970): flue-cured lamina, 40.11: fl.+e-cured stem, 14.2t;
Burley lamina, 24.9%; Turkish (whole lcaf), 11.61; Maryland lamina,
1.11; glycerine, 2.81; invert sucrose, 5.3%.
Smoke was generated from 4 cigarettes burning simultaneously, and was
administered to the animals in a 60-second ru.'f cycle. Each cycle con-
sisted of a 2-second period of smoKe genuratlon followed by a 15-second
period of additional smoke exposure and a41-second period of exposure
to fresh air.
During the 2-second period of smoke generation, 35 ml of air was push-
ed through each of the 4 cigarettes, ;ivldine) a total volume of 140 ml
~ CTR NN 042=582

smoke which was introduced into the 725 r1 expes::re cr.arter. A-a3-et-
ic stirrer provided instant mixing. The smoke dilu:ian factcr as cal-
culated frem the ph;sical characterist:cs :f the maci::ne .as '25:140
or 5.2 : 1. The smoke concentration inhaled by the hams:ers, in:crrect-
eJ for c!:anc^_s due tc exhaled air of the exp-:sed ani-.a:s, ras :=.ere-
f:re approximately 19.:1 of that lea:ing the r+outh-end of the cigarette.
In corparison, the average concentration cf smoke in the lung cf a
human smoker :s a5cut 0.81 (averaae p,.;ff volur.e, 35 mI: human f:^c-
tional residual capacity, 3.5 liters; human tidal volume, 0.7 liters).
It took the smoke less than 1 second to traverse the 6 inches between
the mouth-end of the cigarette and the ha-+sters' heads, ass;:rinc that
the hamster inhaled smoke no less fresh than that reaching the lungs
of the hu:-ar, smoker.
Each har.,ster was exposed twice a day, 5 days/week, to 8 consec::ti,!e
puff cycles fr---.i the icentucky Reference ciuarettes. T:le first thrc-.jqh
eighth puffs from the c:garettes were used, resulting in a butt leneth .
slightly longer than 30 mm. The period of exposure ranged :rcn 45 to
100 weeks.
Cage-^eld cortrol animals from each inbred line, of co*parazie ace
and :n:tial :eiant. were maintained simultaneo-:sly in the saTe an:-a1
roc-. and were handled in the same way as all other ka^s:ers with re-
qard _- ~P.ekl; aely.n.:.^.g, permanently wearing fel:-alurin::m c::lars,
e:c.,5u: these control hamsters did not come into contact the
smoking ma:::ines. A second ccntrol group consisted of ccr;,araC:e
harsters exnrsed to s~ta:n smoking in tne mac.`.ines, :+hich were caera:ed
under standard c:^d:t:cns, except that no cigarettes were :nser:ed
into tne-. For each ^f a e 2 lines, BI0 15.16 and 810 B7.:C, 1C2 nam-
sters were cxp.csed to smcke, 60 were exposed to sham-smoking cendi-
t:o^s, and '.0 .ere used as cage-held controls.
Since it was i-possible to obtain all 222 hamsters required fcr eacn
inbred line at :ne sa-e time, animals of the proper in::ial a-e and
+eiq^t were ...::oduc^d :nto the experinent in lots of 6, s:acgered
over a period of 37 weeks. As far as possible, 1 lot of 6 ant-a:s
of eac.`f ef the ccntrols was started at the same time as 2 lots of
smoke-exposed hamsters (12 animals).
Anirals .ere exposed to sr.oke or to control conditions for ~s~-een
75 to 100 .=e<s. T`ey aere sacrsf:ced earlier when tncy appeared

tract and any :tner craans or tissues :;hic.n aF;.eared gress:y a5ncr-rai
were s:~d:ed .:s:ol^c::jlll. Lungs were in.':ated and flxc= :n Tel::es-

Pathological changes in the smoke-exposed :.jr.st.rs mere classified

in 531 of the BI0 87.20 line, but in ncr.o .: : re :_..l rc 1ani-a1 s.
Epithelial hyperplasia also occurred with ;,roli!,raticn of the squarois

tive tissue, often in a reticular pattcrn. ..~.~.~r »;s;,1as,.a and

This type of change was more frequent in bIJ 1;.10 ir.imals (:Ut) thon
in the BIO 87.20 line (13%) and it was atsent in t-e Lcntrols. In many
cases of this type of change, the basal layvr .ytJVr"lis was clearly
intact. In some, it became very irregular jnJ j;;.jrvntly isolated cell
clumps were seen in the connective tissue, s fr. ;u(qvstinq lymphatic
invasion. In advanced stages, this type of r.yFerPl,,sia is excecdinyly
difficult to differentiate from early invasive raresncma. This occurrad
in 18.81 of the BIO 15.16 animals and in 4% of tnc BIO 87.20 hamsters.
It should be emphasized that no distant retastasvs .vre found in any
animal. None of these tissue cnanges occurred in :ne :entrols.

A few larynges of smoke-exposed hamsters also showed chronic inflamma-
tion and/or squamous metaplasia of mucus glands. Chronic inflammation
also occurred in a few control animals and was associated with sllght
epithelial thickening, but never with frank n,vperplasia, pseudoepitne-
liomatous change, or papillora formation. There was no significant
difference between sham-smoked and cage-he19 controls in this respect.
4. Lun Lesions: 901 of the lungs from BI0 15.16 hamsters and all of
t~Tose rom the 8I0 87.20 strain were examined histologically. This
revealed both clear-cut strain differences and significant effects
of smoke exposure.l
Pulmonary macrophages in both strains of hamsters can form small clumps
within the alveoli. This tendency is much more pronounced in the BIO
87.20 strain than in the BIO 15.16 strain, as seen from a comparison
of the cage-held control groups (44% versus 6i1. It is accentuated by
smoke exposure in both strains (929 vers,:s 531, respectively). In
neither strain is the incidence of aacrcrrage cl_rping affected by
sham-smoking.
There were qualitative as well as quantitative differences in macro-
phages clumping among the various groups. Irn nematox;lin- and eosin-
stained slides of 610 15.16 nax.ster 1.:-g of all crc:ps, and in 810
87.20 hamster lung from t`e ccr.trcl grc,;ps, t`e clumps consisted of
comparatively few, s^al;, lc+osely-pacKed macrephayes containing dark
brown to black pigment. In lungs of s:^eke-cxpcsej 9I0 67.20 hamsters,
the clumps were Iarger, more atundant, and tr.e;. were cc:,posed of very
large cells ccntair.ing pale golden picmert. :-ese cells were frequent-
ly mixed witn polyrorphonuciear leukoc;tes. Rare smorte-exposed BIO
87.20 hamsters which d:d not have s,~ch cl_:-iped macraphages in their
lungs were usually tr.ose found dead of sc:re i::terc:rrant disease.

Macrophages of both strains, both the isolated cells ar.d t!:cse occur-
ring in clumps, characteristically gave a pos.tive Prussian blue reac-
tion for iron. This was intense in the small macropna?es of all 3I0
15.16 animals and of the BIO 87.20 controls. It ~.ras :+eak in the large
macrcphages of smoke-exposed 810 87.20 hamsters, which also aipeared
to contain yellowish iron-negative pigment. Occasional granules of
black, iron-negative pigment consistent with carbon were found in a
few..maCro;L~O.Q"._-....-....~. ... .
Pulmonary parenchyma in both strains contained small foci of ectopic
bone not associated with inflammation or other obvious disease pro-
cesses. These occurred in 18% of the cage-hald 8i0 15.16 animals,
and in 421 of the 810 87.20's.
,Sporadic lungs in both strains showed acute or chronic pneumonitis
or contained metastic tumors of some sort, usually adrenal carc:ncma,
lymphoma, or leukemic infiltrate. There were no differences in these
parameters which could be ascribed to strain or smoke exposure..
Atnormalities of the trachea and bronchi: They were comparatively rare
in all groups. A few small patches of squamous metaplasia were seen
in 5 to 151 of the BI0 15.16 hamsters, in which the ir.cidence was not
significantly affected by smoke exposure. In the cage-held BIO 87.20
animals, squamcus metaplasia was not seen in the trachea and in only
4% of the bronchi. in smoke-exposed BIO 87.20 animals, these figures
increased to 261 and 211, respectively.
!:o tumors of the air passages were found in control a.^.:r+als of either
strain. 3 tenian sqja.-oss papillomas were foun,+j in sroke-exposed BIO
15.16 hamsters, all of which occurred in the trachea. 4 benign squamous
papillomas were found in smoke-exposed BI0 87.20 hansters, 2 occurring
in the trachea and 2:n the mrin bronchus.
5. Lesions in Xascpharvnx: Sections were taY.en throogh the nasorharynx
an3-eclacent struct~:es of the head in all groups of hamsters. Approx-
imately half contained only normal tissues. The remainder sh.:+ed a
variety of pathological processes, including gingivitis, dental caries,
occular inffaaTaticn with p':thisis bulbi, and thromboses cf crt:tal
veins. None of these phenomena could be related to smoke exposure.
Only 2 tumors were found in the nasophar7.^.x, both occurrirg :n 3:^-
15.16 anirals .rrich had been exposed to smoke fcr 60 to 75 weeks.
1 was an adenoid cystic tumor, believed to have originated f:cm -.jc~s
glands. The other was a fibrosarcoma that had produced numerous small
pulmonary metastases.
6. Heart Lesions: The heart, as such, was not sectioned routinely :n
this experiment. However, it was included with the lungs :n 20 to 25%
o'f the animals. 251 of the cage-held control eI0 15.16 hearts shc4ed
myocardial degeneration, as compared with 171 cf the °IO 8'.20 hearts.
This consisted of :^yolysis wlth (in the 8I0 15.16 animals onlyl an
abundant infiltration of lynphocytes. Smoke-exposure appeared to in-
crease myocardial degeneration in both strains, especially in the
810 15.16 animals. However. the number of animals examined was too
small to permit definitive conclusions.
Mural thrombi were seen in approximately ).01 of the hearts of both
strains. Incidence was not affected by the experimental procedures.

Discussion
Chronic exposure to cigarette smoke produces severe hyperplastic
changes in the squamous epithelium of the hamster.larynx and is
associated with decreased body weight. Smoke-exposure did not in-
crease proliferative changes outside of the respiratory tract or
the non-neoplastic degenerative c!:ar.ges characteristic of aging
hamsters. (Our observations on possible smoke-reiateC changes in
the heart are presently equivocal. Further investiga-ion ~iould be
highly desirable.)
Chronic smoke-exposure significantly reduced survtval :ime in the
previously-published DONTENWILL model; no sucn e'!e:t was seen in
ours. This difference nay be attributed to t.:e t:-fold higher
carbonmonoxide concentration inhaled by DOt:TENWILL's !%aT.sters than
by ours. In fact, previous observations of GG::TE'.W1LL (1970. 1973),
showed sustained increase in clood carbex;ne-oq::a::: in his model,
while ours produced only transient inc:tases.
The point of greatest practical importance to eae:,e from our work
is the demonstration of striking stra u: d:f:erca.-ei a-.ong various
lines of hamsters with respect to susceptibility to acute toxic
effects of smoke, and to hyperplastic resgonse of :ne 1a-ynx to smoke
(BERNFELD and HOMBL'RGER, 1972). Animals of tne :r.trec 810 15.16 line
have both the highest resistance to smoke or nicot.ne tcxicity and
the greatest laryngeal susceptibility - qualities ;reatly increas:ng
the sensitivity of the model. Further studies with large n::nbers of
animals will be necessary to ascertain the signif:can:e of the laryn-
geal strain differences.
No tumors of the lung parenchyma following smcke exposure were ob-
served either by DONTENWILL or by us. The slightly s:gnificant in-
crease in adenomatoid lesions observed by DO'::E':wILL .as not confirmed
by us. In both model systems, there was an increase in so-called
"smoke cells" in alveoli following smoke exposurt. T`t observation
that yellow iron-negative and also black particles ::cur in the macro-
phaoes suggests that the particulate pnase of smoke did reach the
alveolar wa11 to be taken up by the macrophages. ~:se of the 2 inbred
lines in our experiment permitted the conclusion t`at t~ese cells are
not directly related to hyperplastic changes in the respiratory tract.
They were much more abundant in the BIO 87.20 hansters which had the
lower incidence of hyperplastic lesions.
