Abstract PURPOSE:The aim of this study was to establish a model of bacterial translocation (BT) in neuroblastoma-bearing mice.
METHODS:A suspension of 1 x 10(6) cells of the murine neuroblastoma cell line C1300 was injected subcutaneously into the thighs of 8-week-old female A/J mice, which were then killed after 7, 14, and 21 days. Some of the mice were given 1-microm or 2-microm fluorescein-labeled latex beads in their drinking water for 7 days before being killed. Mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) were aseptically removed and cultured for 72 hours at 37 degrees C. Segments of distal ileum were obtained for histologic examination. Samples of venous blood were obtained for laboratory tests.
RESULTS:Tumors were found at the injection sites on days 14 and 21 after C1300 injection. Although tumors were not found in 7 days, significantly high number of 1-microm latex beads were detected in MLNs compared with the control, and the number increased with tumor growth. The number of 2-microm latex beads was significantly higher on days 14 and 21. The percentage of mice with MLN cultures positive were significantly higher on day 14, and the percentage increased along with tumor growth. On day 21 after C1300 injection, body weight loss and anemia were observed, and histologic findings of the terminal ileum showed mucosal edema and villous thinning. Serum levels of interleukin (IL)-6 were significantly higher in mice killed 14 and 21 days after injection.
CONCLUSIONS:The results suggest that BT from the gut to MLNs may occur in neuroblastoma C1300-bearing mice, and it increases along with tumor growth. Even in the early stage of malignancy, particles as small as 1 microm may translocate from the gut to MLNs.
