Abstract

Obesity is one of the leading causes of numerous types of cancer. The present study investigated the impact of a high‑fat diet on 1,2‑dimethylhydrazine (DMH)‑induced colorectal cancer (CRC) in F344 rats. A total of 16 male F344 rats aged 4 weeks were randomly divided into two groups (8 rats/group). Rats in group A were fed a basal diet with a moderate fat (MF) content, while rats in group B were fed a high‑fat diet. Upon reaching 5 weeks of age, the rats were injected subcutaneously with DMH (20 mg/kg body weight). DMH was administered once a week for 8 consecutive weeks. All the rats were sacrificed 34 weeks after the first DMH injection and dissected to obtain samples of colorectal tissues. The tissues were examined under a microscope for the presence of aberrant crypt foci (ACFs) and subjected to histopathological analysis. The results showed that at the end of the 34‑week experiment, body weights and visceral fat levels were significantly higher in the high‑fat diet group compared to the basal diet group. In addition, the incidences of colorectal ACF, adenoma and adenocarcinoma were markedly elevated in the high‑fat diet group compared to the basal diet group. These results indicate that the consumption of a high‑fat diet promotes the development and progression of CRC and the control of fat intake may prevent CRC.
