Transgenic rats featuring a dominant negative mutant of the connexin 32 gene under albumin promoter control (Cx32\u0394Tg-High and Cx32\u0394Tg-Low lines, respectively with high and low copy numbers of the transgene) have disrupted GJIC, as demonstrated by scrape dye-transfer assay in vivo as previous report by Asamoto et al. (2004) . In the present study, we investigated the susceptibility of these transgenic rats to a single intraperitoneal administration of diethylnitrosamine (DEN), and found a significant increase in preneoplastic glutathione S-transferase placental form (GST-P) positive lesions in the livers of Cx32\u0394Tg-High but not Cx32\u0394Tg-Low rats. However, incidences of adenomas and hepatocellular carcinomas were not elevated at the end of the experiment (52 weeks). In addition, we investigated the promotional effect of phenobarbital (PB) on Cx32\u0394Tg-High rats pretreated with DEN and found enhanced formation of GST-P positive lesions, in contrast to the lack of promoting effects reported for Cx32 deficient mice. The results indicate that although both high and low expression of the dominant negative connexin 32 mutant gene in our rats is able to inhibit gap junctional capacity, only high expression is effective at enhancing susceptibility to early stage DEN-induced liver carcinogenesis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/01926230500330313","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,10,26]],"date-time":"2005-10-26T16:32:15Z","timestamp":1130344335000},"page":"695-701","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Transgenic
