Arsenic is a potent human carcinogen. Around one hundred million people worldwide have potentially been exposed to this metalloid at concentrations considered unsafe. Exposure occurs generally through drinking water from natural geological sources, making it difficult to control this contamination. Arsenic biotransformation is suspected to have a role in arsenic-related health effects ranging from acute toxicities to development of malignancies associated with chronic exposure. It has been demonstrated that arsenic exhibits preference for induction of squamous cell carcinomas in the human, especially skin and lung cancer. Interestingly, keratins emerge as a relevant factor in this arsenic-related squamous cell-type preference. Additionally, both genomic and epigenomic alterations have been associated with arsenic-driven neoplastic process. Some of these aberrations, as well as changes in other factors such as keratins, could explain the association between arsenic and squamous cell carcinomas in humans.

As a model for human lung cancer, squamous cell carcinomas were induced by 3-methylcholanthrene in mouse tracheas which had been explanted to a subcutaneous site. The tumors that developed were examined for both ecotropic and xenotropic infectious murine leukemia virus (MuLV). From all squamous carcinomas--six out of six--a xenotropic MuLV was isolated. From some of the fibrosarcomas that occurred incidentally in our induction system, ecotropic MuLV was isolated. However, in the fibrosarcomas, no xenotropic MuLV at all was found.

Naturally occurring squamous cell carcinomas of lung of laboratory rodents are rare, and few cases have been reported and illustrated. A solid peripheral lung mass was observed grossly in a untreated 573-day-old male Sprague Dawley CD (Crl: CD® [SD] BR) rat. Microscopically, the mass was composed of neoplastic squamous epithelial cells arranged in nests, cords, nodules, or solid sheets. Epithelial pearls were present. The mitotic index was high, and intercellular bridging (prickles) was noted. In some areas, neoplastic cells rimmed large cystic areas containing neutrophils, cell debris, and laminated keratin masses. Neoplastic cells had both expansive and invasive growth with entrapment of bronchioles and marked fibroplasia.
