Chronic mesothelial reaction and toxicity of potassium octatitanate fibers in the pleural cavity in mice and F344 rats

Summary

Fiber shaped particles of potassium octatitanate (trade name TISMO; chemical formula K2O・6TiO2), which are morphologically similar to asbestos particles, were shown to induce severe proliferative reactions in the pleural mesothelium in a previous experiment conducted over 21 weeks. The present study aims to determine whether these fibers induce malignant mesotheliomas in rodents or not, and to examine chronic toxicity induced. Additionally, we investigated the specific differences observable between the biological responses to the direct infusion of the fibers alone into the pleural cavity and those induced by the co-administration of the fibers with a known carcinogen.

To detect the induction of malignant pleural mesotheliomas, two experiments were conducted. In Experiment 1, 4 strains of mice, A/J, C3H, ICR, and C57BL, were examined for 52 weeks after experimental treatment with TISMO. In Experiment 2, the F344 rats were treated with TISMO, the lung carcinogen N-bis (2-hydroxypropyl) nitrosamine (DHPN), both TISMO and DHPN, or left untreated and were then examined for 52 weeks. In this experiment, malignant lesion induction was expected in the co-administration group.

TISMO fibers were observed in the alveoli, indicating penetration through the visceral pleura in mice and rats. The histopathological detection of TISMO fibers in the liver and kidneys of mice and rats indicated migration of the fibers out of the pleural cavity. Atypical mesothelial cells with severe pleural proliferation were observed, but malignant mesotheliomas were not detected. Among the rats, there were no observed malignant alterations in the mesothelium induced by DHPN-TISMO co-administration.
