Early reactions of the subcutaneous tissue to repeated injections of carcinogens in aqueous solutions.

Four water-soluble carcinogens were injected at the same site subcutaneously into rats, mice or guinea-pigs, twice weekly for 5-8 weeks in order to study the evolution of the early tissue reaction. MNU was injected into rats as 0·1 ml. of 0·5% solution, and into mice as 0·1 ml. of 0·05% solution. NQO was administered to rats (0·1 or 0·2 ml. of 0·25 or 0·1%) mice (0·1 of 0·05%) and guinea-pigs (0·5 of 0·1%). Propane sultone and BEI were administered to rats only, the former as 0·1 ml. of 3% and the latter as 0·5 ml. of 2·0% solution.The principal features of the tissue reaction produced by each of the four compounds in rats were similar and consisted of destruction of subcutaneous tissue, deposition of fibrin and "fibrinoid", an abnormal pattern of fibroblastic proliferation with cytomegaly of some fibroblasts and deposition of mucopolysaccharide but little collagen formation. Moreover, the appearance of fibroblastic proliferation was delayed from the normal 2-5 days to 14-16 days.These features are consistent with the known early effects of carcinogens on proliferating target tissues, and differ considerably from those found in the early reactive lesions to repeated injection of solutions of substances possessing physical properties such as surface activity or hypertonicity, or which precipitate at the injection site.

A comparison between 133Xenon washout technique and Laser Doppler flowmetry in the measurement of local vasoconstrictor effects on the microcirculation in subcutaneous tissue and skin.

Changes in skin blood flow measured by Laser Doppler flowmetry and changes in subcutaneous blood flow measured by 133Xenon washout technique were compared during activation of the local sympathetic mediated veno-arteriolar vasoconstrictor reflex by lowering the area of investigation below heart level. The measurements were performed in tissue with and without sympathetic innervation. In five subjects, who all had been cervically sympathectomized for manual hyperhidrosis, the Laser Doppler and 133Xenon blood flow measurements were performed simultaneously on the sympathetically denervated forearm, and on the calf with preserved sympathetic nerve supply. The Laser Doppler method registered a 23% reduction in skin blood flow during lowering of the extremities independently of the sympathetic nerve supply to the skin. The 133Xenon method recorded a 44% decrease in blood flow in innervated and unchanged blood flow in denervated subcutaneous tissue during lowering of the extremities. Our results indicate that the Laser Doppler method and 133Xenon method are not comparable, and that the Laser Doppler method is not useful in measuring local sympathetic mediated blood flow changes.
