The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of dietary supplementation (with zinc or zinc and polyphenolic compounds – resveratrol or genistein) on antioxidant enzymes (glutathione peroxidase – GPx, catalase – CAT and superoxide dismutase – SOD) and the frequency of microsatellite instability (MSI) in a widely used model of mammary carcinogenesis induced in the rat by treatment with 7,12-dimethyl-1,2-benz[a]anthracene (DMBA). The impact of selected compounds on the intensity of DMBA-induced carcinogenesis was also assessed. Sixty four Sprague-Dawley female rats were divided into study groups which, apart from the standard diet and DMBA, were treated with zinc, zinc and resveratrol or zinc and genistein via gavage for a period ranging from 40 days to 20 weeks of age. On the basis of the obtained results it can be said that synergistic reaction between Zn(II) and genistein causes a delay in cancer development as compared with the animals treated with DMBA but with no food supplementation. Supplementation with Zn(II) and polyphenolic compounds resulted in the occurrence of microsatellite instabilities in tumors. LOH (loss of heterozygosity) was found in tumor samples at microsatellite D1Mgh6 and D3Mgh9. DMBA treatment increased significantly the glutathione peroxidase activity whereas it had no effect on the SOD and CAT activities, as compared with control rats. Diet supplementation has an effect on the activity of selected antioxidant enzymes. Diet supplementation has an effect on the occurrence of microsatellite instabilities as well as on the intensity of the neoplastic process. The intensity of occurrence of microsatellite instabilities does not depend on the activity of selected antioxidant enzymes. |
