چکیده

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in coke oven emissions could cause lung cancer in human. Individual's genotype of the metabolic enzymes and early biological changes were known to be associated with the susceptibility of cancer development. Knowledge of metabolic gene polymorphisms, which affect on the urinary 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP), could benefit us in understanding the interindividual difference in the mechanism of PAH-induced carcinogenesis. In this study, we investigated the association of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) gene polymorphisms and urinary 1-OHP. One hundred forty-seven workers exposed to PAH and 69 nonexposure workers were recruited. Seven tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms in AhR gene were selected by pariwise r(2) method and minor allele frequency cutoff of 0.05 from Chinese genotype data in HapMap project. These seven tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped by PCR-based methods. Multivariate analysis of covariance revealed that the levels of 1-OHP in PAH-exposed workers carrying genotype CT were lower than workers carrying wild genotype TT at loci rs10250822 and rs2282885 of AhR gene (P = 0.032 and 0.044, respectively). In PAH-exposed workers, the urinary 1-OHP levels showed a linear correlation (P(trend) = 0.041) with the genotypes at locus rs2282885, especially in low and moderate exposure groups. In contrast, no significant association was found between urinary 1-OHP level and AhR genotypes among nonexposed workers. Our findings indicated that polymorphisms of AhR gene were associated with the level of 1-OHP among PAH-exposed workers, suggesting that AhR-mediated signaling might contribute to individual susceptibility to PAH exposure.

Urinary 1-Hydroxypyrene Levels in Workers Exposed to Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon from Rubber Wood Burning

BACKGROUND Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP) was selected as a biomarker of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to explore the accumulation level in the bodies of workers at rubber smoke sheet factories in southern Thailand. METHODS Spot urine samples were taken from four groups of workers from June 2006 to November 2007. The nonexposure or control groups included habitual cigarette smokers...

Urinary 1-Hydroxypyrene as a Biomarker to Carcinogenic Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Exposure

In order to capture the extent of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), various biomarkers have been employed. The biomarkers employed for PAHs include PAHs genetoxic end points in lymphocytes, urinary metabolites, PAH-DNA adducts, and PAH-Protein adducts. Of these, excretory 1-hydroxypyene, a metabolite of pyrene, has been used extensively as a biological monitoring indicator of...

Biological monitoring of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon exposure in a highly polluted area of Poland.

Air pollution in Poland and particularly in Silesia is among the worst in Europe. Many coal mines and coke oven plants are located in this area, representing a major source of carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). We quantitated the PAH exposure level in air samples using personal sampling devices, collected urine samples from the same individuals, and measured 1-hydroxypyrene w...

The influence of genetic polymorphisms in Ahr, CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1, GST M1, GST T1 and UGT1A1 on urine 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide concentrations in healthy subjects from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

Polymorphisms in genes encoding polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) metabolizing enzymes may alter metabolism of these carcinogens and contribute to inter-individual difference in urine concentrations. We investigated the influence of genetic polymorphism on PAH metabolism in urine from 199 healthy subjects from Southern Brazil. We measured urine 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide (1-OHPG) concentra...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon exposure, urinary mutagenicity, and DNA adducts in rubber manufacturing workers.

OBJECTIVES Several studies have suggested that genotoxic risks might still be present in the contemporary rubber manufacturing industry. Previously, we observed elevated levels of urinary mutagenicity and bladder DNA adducts in rubber workers. Presently, we investigated whether DNA adducts in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and/or urothelial cells may be caused by polycyclic aromatic ...
