  • Title: Induction of a transplantable urinary bladder carcinoma in dogs.
    Author: Harzmann R, Gericke D, Altenähr E, Bichler KH.
    Journal: Invest Urol; 1980 Jul; 18(1):24-8. PubMed ID: 7410009.
    Abstract:
    We attempted to reduce the carcinoma induction latency period and to produce a transplantable urinary bladder cancer in dogs. After transurethral pellet application, 12 of 22 female beagles were given subcutaneous injections of orthoaminodiphenyl, FANFT, or both. Monthly cytologic and histologic checks yielded the earliest evidence yet obtained for invasive urothelial urinary bladder carcinoma (15 months); seven urothelial carcinomas of the urinary bladder and three of the renal pelvis were established. Tissue cultures of the urothelial carcinomas in vitro were successful. Transplantation of tumor cells to 23 nude mice resulted in tumor growth in 19. Transplantation to 10 beagles yielded 2 tumors very quickly, but the tumors were rejected within 4 weeks.
