  • Title: Carcinogenesis of mouse submandibular salivary gland using DMBA implant.
    Author: Hindy AM, Shaker MA, Mounir RM.
    Journal: Egypt Dent J; 1995 Apr; 41(2):1195-202. PubMed ID: 9497656.
    Abstract:
    Carcinogenesis of 35 ddy male mice submandibular salivary glands were attempted; using implants of a 1 mg (2 mm) prepared pellets of the potent chemical carcinogen 9, 10-dimethyl-1, 2-benzanthracene (DMBA) dry powder without a vehicle or carrier. This method appeared to be easy, fast and effective. Within a period ranging from 7-14 weeks; twenty animals developed epidermoid carcinoma (two of them developed squamous cell carcinoma of covering skin as well), and two animals developed mixed tumors (pleomorphic adenoma like tumor) but neither adenocystic carcinoma nor sarcoma were found, the results were adequately discussed.
