In 4 experiments, 140 male syngeneic Wistar-Furth rats were implanted with tumors or received control incisions. Ss with experimental tumors developed strong aversions to a novel diet they consumed during tumor growth. Aversions were not evident when the food available during tumor growth was familiar laboratory chow. The impact of learned food aversions on tumor anorexia was evidenced by more severe and long-lasting hypophagia in tumor-bearing Ss maintained on a novel diet than in those maintained on laboratory chow. Thus, when a diet was a salient target for the development of learned aversions, the aversions that developed to it could make substantial contributions to the overall syndrome of tumor anorexia. Frequent changes of the diet offered to tumor-bearing Ss were associated with milder anorexia than that produced by a constant diet. Results suggest that, the prevention of learned food aversions, or the repeated replacement of aversive foods, can minimize the impact of learned food aversions and attentuate anorexia in tumor-bearing animals.(30 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
