The most common cause of human lung cancer is suggested to be exposure to the carcinogens in tobacco smoke. Among the multiple chemicals in tobacco smoke, 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) has been regarded as one of the important agents for generation of lung cancers. Previously, our studies proved that fermented brown rice and rice bran (FBRA) has chemopreventive effects against carcinogenesis of the colon, liver, stomach, bladder and esophagus. In the present study, we examined possible chemopreventive effects of FBRA on the NNK-induced lung tumorigenesis in mice. Six-week-old female A/J mice were divided into 8 groups, and groups 1-5 were given NNK (10 mmol) by i.p. injection at week 7. Groups 2 and 3 were fed with diet containing 5 and 10% FBRA during the initiation phase, respectively. Groups 4 and 5 were fed with 5% and 10% FBRA during the post-initiation phase. Groups I and 6 were given control diet throughout the experiment. Groups 7 and 8 were given the diet containing 5 and 10% FBRA throughout the experiment, respectively. In both initiation (group 3) and post-initiation phase (group 5), 10% FBRA exposure significantly reduced the multiplicity of lung tumor (group 3, 2.35 +/- 2.13; group 5, 3.00 +/- 1.52; group 1, 4.08 +/- 1.85; p
