Promotion of gastric tumorigenesis by duodenal contents in rats induced with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG).

Reflux of duodenal contents into the stomach occurs in patients with pyloric incompetence and after gastric resection when bile-diverting procedures are omitted. In such settings duodenal contents have been considered to favor the development of gastric cancer. We have studied the effect of chronic duodenogastric reflux on gastric tumor promotion in rats treated with N-methyl-N'-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in an experimental design that avoids physical trauma to the glandular stomach. Thus the effect of trauma-induced tissue repair on carcinogenesis is eliminated, and duodenogastric reflux is isolated as an experimental parameter. To achieve such reflux the first jejunal loop was anastomosed to the forestomach in rats. Animals were exposed to MNNG in drinking water (83 mg/L) for 12 weeks before induction of reflux. Experimental groups were as follow: I, reflux plus MNNG (n = 32); II, MNNG alone (n = 27); III, reflux alone (n = 28); IV, control (n = 25). The experiment was terminated after 56 weeks. Only animals that had survived for 90 days were included in the effective number of animals, which allowed for equal chances of tumor development. In no animal that died earlier had tumors developed. Animals with reflux plus MNNG treatment had significantly more glandular neoplasms (12/32) than did animals with MNNG treatment alone (4/27; p less than 0.05). Similarly, more animals with squamous cell neoplasms were recorded in group I (9/32) than in group II (2/27; p less than 0.05). In consideration of all tumors of epithelial and mesenchymal origin, more gastric malignant tumors were observed in group I (9/32) than in group II (2/27; p less than 0.05). It is concluded that chronic exposure to duodenal contents promotes the development of gastric neoplasia.
