The primary motivation for conducting short-term tests for environmental mutagens and carcinogens has been to predict mutagens and/or carcinogens and to assess any associated risks. Organ-specific in vivo short-term tests in rodents are valuable because chemical carcinogenesis is generally organ-specific. I have attempted to develop various organ-specific in vivo short-term tests mainly in rodent liver and stomach. Recently, our collaborative study group, Toxicogenomics/Japanese Environmental Mutagen Society·Mammalian Mutagenicity Study Group (JEMS·MMS), attempted to use gene expression profiling in in vivo short-term tests, conducted DNA microarrays to extract candidate marker genes, and later shifted to quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) to profile the expression of selected genes. We successfully discriminated 8 genotoxic hepatocarcinogens from 4 non-genotoxic hepatocarcinogens by statistical analysis using principal component analysis (PCA) based on the gene expression profiles for 12 genes (Aen, Bax, Btg2, Ccnf, Ccng1, Cdkn1a, Gdf15, Lrp1, Mbd1, Phlda3, Plk2, and Tubb2c) in mouse liver at 4 and 48 h following a single intraperitoneal administration of chemicals as determined by qPCR. More recently, we successfully performed a similar study in rat liver. Previously, my collaborators and I developed various organ-specific in vivo short-term test methods, including UDS (unscheduled DNA synthesis); RDS (replicative DNA synthesis) using a liquid scintillation counter in rat glandular stomach, forestomach, colon, and liver and hairless mouse epidermis; DNA single-strand scission (DSS); and ornithine decarboxylase assay (ODC) in rat glandular stomach on 62 compounds. Developing short-term tests that are helpful for the risk assessment of human mutagens and carcinogens would contribute to the development of ideal prediction methods.<br>
