The Chronic Gavage Toxicity/Carcinogenicity Study of Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C) in Harlan Sprague-Dawley Rats (G823524-B), CAS No 700-06-1
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Indole-3-carbinol is used as a dietary supplement and has potential use as a therapeutic agent for the prevention of various types of cancer. While substantial evidence exists that indole-3-carbinol can reduce the risk of cancers induced by several known carcinogens when administered to animals, indole-3-carbinol can also function as an initiator and tumor promoter in certain models. The carcinogenic potential of indole-3-carbinol has not been studied in a 2-year bioassay. The objective of the microarray study was to evaluate the transcriptional changes in liver from rats exposed to 0 or 300 mg/kg indole-3-carbinol. At 3 months, livers were analyzed from female Harlan Sprague Dawley rats in the 2-year gavage study of indole-3-carbinol.
