Chemopreventive activities of all-trans retinoic acid (AtRA), 9-cis retinoic acid (9cRA), retinol (ROL) and beta-carotene (betaC) were evaluated during hepatocarcinogenesis. Rats received 1 mg/100 g body wt AtRA (AtRA group), 9cRA (9cRA group), ROL (ROL group), 7 mg/100 g body wt betaC (betaC group) or corn oil (CO group, controls). Hepatocyte nodule incidence was reduced (P &lt; 0.05) in betaC group (46%), but not (P &gt; 0.05) in AtRA (92%), 9cRA (92%) and ROL (82%) groups, compared with the CO group (100%). Multiplicity of these preneoplastic lesions (PNL) was different (P &lt; 0.05) between CO group (44 +/- 9) and 9cRA (11 +/- 4), ROL (7 +/- 3) and betaC (4 +/- 2) groups, except for AtRA group (27 +/- 9; P &gt; 0.05). Number/cm(2) liver section, mean area (mm(2)) and percent liver section area occupied by total (persistent + remodeling) placental glutathione S-transferase (GST-P) positive PNL was reduced (P &lt; 0.05) in AtRA (107 +/- 13; 0.12 +/- 0.06; 13.9 +/- 3.9), 9cRA (71 +/- 12; 0.12 +/- 0.06; 6.8 +/- 2.2), ROL (96 +/- 13; 0.11 +/- 0.22; 6.8 +/- 2.0) and betaC (106 +/- 13; 0.08 +/- 0.03; 10.8 +/- 2.5) groups compared with CO group (166 +/- 14; 0.18 +/- 0.09; 28.6 +/- 5.2). Percent of remodeling GST-P positive PNL was increased (P &lt; 0.05) in 9cRA (92 +/- 1), ROL (96 +/- 1) and betaC (93 +/- 1) groups, but not (P &gt; 0.05) in AtRA group (90 +/- 2), compared with the CO group (86 +/- 1). Compared with the CO group, all groups present in PNL reduced (P &lt; 0.05) cell proliferation and no differences (P &gt; 0.05) in apoptosis. DNA damage [comet length (mum)] was reduced (P &lt; 0.05) in ROL (87.9 +/- 2.6) and betaC (89.2 +/- 4.0) groups, but not in AtRA (94.8 +/- 4.1) and 9cRA (94.2 +/- 1.5) groups, compared with the CO group (100.4 +/- 3.9). AtRA, 9cRA, ROL and betaC presented chemopreventive activities against hepatocarcinogenesis. These involve inhibition of cell proliferation, but not induction of apoptosis. Increased remodeling of GST-P positive PNL relates to 9cRA, ROL and betaC actions, while inhibition of DNA damage relates to ROL and betaC actions.

carcinogenesis

All- trans and 9- cis retinoic acids, retinol and β-carotene chemopreventive activities during the initial phases of hepatocarcinogenesis involve distinct actions on glutathione S -transferase positive preneoplastic lesions remodeling and DNA damage
