Establishment of an efficient rat model for colitis-associated colon carcinogenesis is critical for evaluation of the potency of cancer-preventive agents on carcinogenesis. In the present study, we examined whether the Kyoto Apc Delta (KAD) rat, a novel adenomatous polyposis coli mutant rat strain, is useful for detection of potential chemopreventive agents when this rat is used for azoxymethane (AOM) plus...
