We have tested a new ligand for peroxisome proliferator-activatedreceptor- ${gamma}$ , GW7845, as an inhibitor of experimental mammary carcinogenesis,using the classic rat model with nitrosomethylurea as carcinogen.Rats were first treated with a single dose of nitrosomethylurea(50 mg/kg body weight, i.p.). Starting 1 week later, they werefed GW7845, at either 60 or 30 mg/kg of diet, for 2 months.This agent significantly reduced tumor incidence, tumor number,and tumor weight at both doses. This is the first report ofthe use of a ligand for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- ${gamma}$ to prevent experimental breast cancer.
