Introduction of 25843-45-2 :

Azoxymethane is a colon carcinogen which leads to the formation of DNA adducts. In Vitro:Azoxymethane is a colon carcinogen which leads to the formation of DNA adducts. On an equal protein basis, hepatic microsomes are much more active than SI and colon microsomes in NADPH-dependent Azoxymethane bioactivation and N7-mG adduct formation. Hepatic microsomes show the highest activity in the hydroxylation of Azoxymethane, followed by SI and colon microsomes[1]. In Vivo:Note:
Please do not refer to only one article to determine the experimental conditions. It is recommended to determine the optimal experimental conditions (animal strain, age, dosage, frequency and cycle, detection time and indicators, etc.) through preliminary experiments before the formal experiment.

Azoxymethane can be used to induce colorectal cancer models.

Induction of Colorectal Cancer
Background
Azoxymethane induces induces G to A transitions and leads to activating mutations in K-ras and β-catenin in colonocytes, ctivation of Wnt signaling by accumulation of beta-catenin is a major mechanism in the azoxymethane-induced colon carcinogenesis model.
Specific Modeling Methods
Mice: 20-25 g•Male A/J mice&bull
Administration: 5 mg/kg• i.p.• weekly for 6 weeks
Modeling Indicators
Cellular/tissue level: Induced hyperproliferation and microadenoma formation, Increased the cyclin D1 and COX-2 expression.
Molecular changes: Increased the protein expression of pro-TGF-α, pEGFR, pErbB2, pERK, induces K-ras mutations.
