CAcmiesl Carcinofenais in Syrian Hanatert 101
l. Introduerion
Hamsters continue to be important in experimental arcinopnesis
studies. Their check pouch remains a unique and most usetul tool. In some
emerjinr areas, their use is becoming especially fruitful. Such 6elds include
studies on renal ancers, induction of neoplasms and preneoplastic chanps
in the rapiratory tract by direct application of particulate carcinogens or by
smoke inhalation and urinary bladder araooIIeoais. It also bejins to appear
as if hamsters will become useful models for gastrointestinal arsiaosenesis
and for studies with inbred h.imstera, which once more make clear the basic
truths much earlier realized in mice, of genetic control of anoer suseepdbility
or mistance. Not only does every species possess its own pattern of mponse
to various arcinogens, but, within species, inbred lines diAa markedly in
their susceptibility to carcinogens. Sex is the only equally striking modi6er
of arciao=enesis. This genetic control of cancer susceptibility pertains not
only to diJfaent chemical carcinogens, but also to viral cancers (102, 193J.
Reslirstion of this fact renders it most important that the susceptibility or
resistana to carcinogens of inbred lines of Syrian hamsters be arefupy
studied and deSned, so that only susceptible lines wiU be used for screening
of substances for carcinogenic activity. The genedally determined diAereaoes
of carcinogen susceptibility also provide a tool tor the study of inethaaisms
of cancer production.
It is of jrat importance for the comparative study of various rsports
in the literature that the hsnutera used be clearly identilted in terms of their
source and genetic constitution. This is not always done at present, ta that
much published work, especially that done with sandombred animals, is
ditTicult to interpret and the results may not be reproducible.
The l;terature on chemical aranoteaesis in the Syrian golden hamster
was first reviewed in 1968 and 19ti9, and updated (tluouilh 1971) in 1972
(74, 75, 77). The Gterature sina then has betn monitored in part through the
use of DIOSIS, a computer-based information servia on the journals covered
by Biological Abstracts. Thers an now sulficient new data in the most recent
literature to warrant a further review to update the previous ones.
As in the first papers, the writing technique suggested by SiLYt wi11 be
used: The reviewer's summaries and evaluations of published material ars
printed in standard type, while the abstraets, mostly taken from published
papers, are grouped and printed in petit type.
To facilitate the cross-referencinS of this review with earlier ones, the
original order of main hcadings will be used. Throughout this review, the

While La et al. (101] had previously reported melanotic skin tumors
with a single subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of DMBA to aewbora haansters,
Auaatf er al. (10,11] observed similar tumors after single iotratastric(i.6.)
doses of DMBA (20 rnS(100 6 body wei jht) given to male or femak haautea
ajed trom 6 to S weeks. They observed a significant incnase in the oumber
(but not size) of tumors following pinealestomy. This effect of ablative
pineal surgery wu more marked in males than in females.
ln our own studies involving s.eL and i.g. administration of DMBA,
we have never seen mdanotie skita tumors. The description of AuttatT's
melanotic tumor so closely resembles that of GtUm er al. (1. oata. Caaar
Inst. 40: E67-t77, 19681 that we are tempted to spexv4tt tAat pottsibly the

such skio rumors are induced in B10 strains because they may be free of

Studies on the eheek pouch may be divided into those dealing with
histology (including fine structure) and histochemistry of developing induced
neoplasms, and studies concerned witb modifying factors of.arcino=enesis
at the eheek pouch site, indudin= experiatental radiotherapy and chemo-
therapy (E2) of induced lesions as well as ae of the pouch for the testing of
suspected carcinogens (34, 193J. DMBA, the carcinopen of choice in these
studies, was ta:ually applied aa an 0.3% solution in puaQtn, aatone or
'Orakisse'. For weaker arcinotent, a technique was .uuested 'which en-
e:oses the test material into selatin capsules and polyethylene sheet for
:radual release and repeated replaoement 1151},
Fine structure studies reve:aled the formation of pt+eudopodia by trans-
fortnin= epithelial txlls which wete no IonSer d'Win=uishabte at the onset of
Nistolo=ially reeolnirabk cancer (1911~ NMU was also used topically and
introduced rhabdomyoblastornas in 32% of the treated animals, and sastric
tumor in 44% (1931
Studies on the early Gght tnicroscopic changes uen in DMBA arcino-
Senesis in the vascular elements of the cheek pouch show that neurovascular
changes in the terminal vessels do oeau extren+ely early (25,26). Studies on
the inflammatory response to DMBA showed a steep and steady rise of
maerophsM concomitant with tumor development (44 Some of the histo-
ehemical techniques for aryl hydrotylases trvcaled a particulate rnction -
produet in epithelial alit, and some of these partieles possessed properties
of lysosotnes. Changes in siss, ttaininS properties, number and fragility of
the lysosome-like and other ptuticles were observed in arcino=en-trated
epithelium before any histological or cytological evidence o[ premaliinancy
(172, 173). Changes found in human prernalipunt oral lesions resembled

those found in preancerous lesions of hamsters. During the course of ar-
cinoSenesis, marked increas.s in DNA content in basal and parabasal cells
were observed (14j and DMBA !Jnjutated DNA synthesis in an increasing
number of cells (192j.
In exfoliative cytology studies during arcinosenesis, typical cells were
found in the earliest erythematous lesions (40j. In the premalignant stau,
pseudopodia =rowin= into the intrsepithclial spaces were observed (1991
In malignant basal cells, the total length basal ttsembtsne was inasased
and the total lengths of desmosomes and hemidesmosomes were decreased;
this may be associated with greater cell mobility (t961.
Fine structure studies revealed the formation of'pseudopodi hy trat:s-
tor+ttia; epstl;eliat oslls which were no longer distinguishable at the onset
of histolojially recognizable cancer (19d). NMU was also used topically
and introduced rhabdomyoblastomas in 32% of the treated animals and
gastric tumor in 44";.
Modifying factors of arcinopnesis (or of established, induced tumors)
have been studied in the hamster cheek pouch. Such factors include chronic
irritation and trauma (170j, metals, speci6ally zinc (13E), castration (103j,
hormones, testosterone (132j, cortisone (13Sj, cortisone derivative in DMSO
(171j, vitamin A(132,133j, vitamin Ds and Da (fS7j, antilymphocyte urum
(46j, and bacillus Glmette-Gudrin (43j. Therapeutic a=ents, such as X-rnys
(t51, and chemotherapeutic agents (cyclophosphamide, metbotreute and
vinbtastine) have also been studied (106j. Chlorpromazine also was used to
suppress urcinojeneLis of DMBA when applied to the eheek poucb prior
to, or with, the arcinogen (103, 1341. Human saliva, on the other hand,
did not protect against DMBA arctinojtrtesis (1l9j. The effects observed
with various moditying factors are summarized in t,abk l.
A lesion described as'lyrnphotaalike' was induced by three times weekly
application for 12 weeks of vitamin A palmitate in liquid para/firt (20% w/v).
Theu appeared to be chronic inAammatory esudates rather than lymphomas
(104j.
