Abstract
A new murine Helicobacter species, Helicobacter hepaticus, infects the livers of mice, causing a progressive chronic active hepatitis culminating in hepatocellular tumors. To examine the role of chronic H. hepaticus infection in carcinogenesis, H. hepaticus-infected male infant mice of A/JCr strain were given a single i.p. dose of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). Noninfected A/J mice similarly treated with NDMA served as controls. The effect of hepatitis induced by H. hepaticus was studied for 64 wk. At 31-36 wk, the incidence of hepatocellular adenomas in infected mice was significantly higher than in noninfected mice (82 vs 52%; p = 0.05). The multiplicity of hepatocellular tumors was also significantly higher in infected mice compared to noninfected mice (3.2 +/- 0.09 vs 0.09 +/- 0.2; p = 0.03). At 51-64 wk, many (10/18) infected mice developed hepatocellular carcinomas while only 2 of 19 control mice developed such tumors (p = 0.005). Overexpression of cyclin D was observed in hepatocytes as well as adenomas induced by NDMA in H. hepaticus-infected mice, suggesting its role in inflammation, abnormal cell growth, and early neoplasia. High molecular weight keratins were highly expressed in hyperplastic oval cells in hepatitis a...Continue Reading
