Future directions in butadiene risk assessment and the role of cross-species internal dosimetry
چکیده انگلیسی

The 2005 International Symposium on the evaluation of butadiene and chloroprene health risks provided the opportunity to consider the past, present and future state of research issues for 1,3-butadiene. Considerable advancements have been made in our knowledge of exposure, metabolism, biomarkers of exposure and effect, and epidemiology. Despite this, uncertainties remain which will impact the human health risk assessment for current worker and environmental exposures. This paper reviews key aspects of recent studies and the role that biomarkers of internal dosimetry can play in addressing low to high exposure, gender, and cross-species differences in butadiene toxicity and metabolism. Considerable information is now available on the detection and quantification of protein adducts formed from the mono-, di- and dihydroxy-epoxide metabolites of butadiene. The diepoxide metabolite appears to play a key role in mutagenesis. Species differences in production of this critical metabolite are reflected by the diepoxybutane-specific hemoglobin adduct, pry-Val. To date, the pry-Val adduct has not been quantifiable in human blood samples from workers with cumulative occupational exposures up to 6.3 ppm-weeks; whereas, the pry-Val was quantifiable in the blood of mice and rats with similar cumulative exposures. Levels in mice were much higher than in rats. Further improvements in analytical sensitivity for the pyr-Val adduct are on the horizon. Epidemiology studies are also described and ongoing efforts promise to help bridge our understanding of past and future risks.
