Colorectal tumor yield and volume data were obtained using 355 CF1mice serially sacrificed up to 84 weeks following various dose levels of the carcinogen 1,2-dimethylhydrazine dichloride (DMH). Several conclusions were reached: (a) With increasing doses of DMH, there was an increased tumor yield and decreased latency period. (b) With repeated doses, there was a rapidly cumulative tumor yield. (c) New tumors continued to accumulate in the colon and rectum even at long intervals after the DMH treatments. This was substantiated by a positive correlation between the number of tumors per colon and the delay after DMH. In addition, when several tumors were present in the same mouse, their sizes were graded rather than uniform.These observations are consistent with a 2- or multi-step carcinogenesis mechanism. The latter implies that DMH induces a permanent transmissible alteration within some cells which thereafter will be at risk for further alterations capable of initiating cancer growth.
