Effect of 3'-methyl-N,N-dimethyl-4-aminoazobenzene in the presence or absence of liver microsomes on the liver cells having low tumor-producing capacity in culture.

A cell strain having low tumor-producing capacity was exposed in culture to 3'-methyl-N,N-dimethyl-4-aminoazobenzene (3'-Me-DAB) in the presence or absence of liver microsomes, and whether or not the cells will progress to those having high tumor-producing capacity was examined. When transplanted into rats, the cells treated with 3'-Me-DAB four (Exp-I) or thirteen times (Exp-II) formed larger tumors than untreated control cells, the latter treatment being more efficient in this regard. Furthermore, the tumors formed by the cells treated with 3'-Me-DAB in the presence of liver microsomes were considerably larger than those formed by the cells treated with 3'-Me-DAB alone. The subcutaneous tumors produced by the cells treated with 3'-Me-DAB with S-15 Mix showed poorly differentiated histology compared with those produced by control and 3'-Me-DAB-treated cells. The frequency of lung metastasis tended to increase by 3'-Me-DAB with S-15 Mix. The cells treated with 3'-Me-DAB in the presence or absence of liver microsomes differed from untreated control cells in vitro in some properties, including the size of aggregates in rotation culture, plating efficiency in liquid medium and morphology. These observations suggest that cell malignancy was promoted by 3'-Me-DAB alone as well as by 3'-Me-DAB in the presence of liver microsomes.</p
