Dose-related differences in DNA adduct levels in rodent tissues following skin application of complex mixtures from air pollution sources.

Abstract：

:Dose-related differences in the binding of DNA reactive intermediates for three environmentally important complex mixture particulate extracts and a well-studied carcinogen, benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), were examined in female C-57 mice following multiple topical treatments ranging from 1 to 120 mg/mouse. Particulate extracts from coke oven, coal soot and diesel exhaust were selected as model complex mixtures based on short-term mutagenicity assays, animal bioassays for carcinogenicity or epidemiological studies, where increased incidences of lung cancer in exposed populations were detected. Positive and negative control animals were treated with 1.2 mg BaP or acetone respectively. DNA was isolated from skin, lung and liver 24 h following the last application and analyzed for DNA adducts using the nuclease P1 version of the 32P-postlabeling assay. Each of the particulate extracts produced distinct patterns of DNA adducts. A diagonal zone of radioactivity, presumably representing multiple putative DNA adducts, was observed for coke-oven, coal-soot- and diesel-modified DNA samples. One adduct, common to all three complex-mixture-modified DNA samples, co-migrated with the major BaP adduct observed following treatment with BaP alone. Based on the BaP concentration for each of the extracts it seems unlikely that this adduct is derived from BaP alone. It is possible that an adduct is formed with chromatographic properties similar to the major BaP-derived adduct detected in mice treated with BaP alone. This adduct was detected in all tissues examined and represented approximately 12-34% of the total number of adducts detected within the diagonal radioactive zone for all coke-oven- and coal-soot-exposed tissues (skin, lung and liver). In contrast, this adduct represented 49-67% of the total radioactivity recovered from the diagonal zone of DNA isolated from lungs of animals exposed to diesel extract. The highest total number of adducts resulted from the metabolism of coke oven extract followed by coal soot and diesel treatments respectively. A dose-dependent increase in adduct formation was observed for all tissues in the diesel- and coal-soot-treatment mice. Liver and lung, but not skin, DNA adduct levels increased in a dose-dependent manner in the coke-oven-treated mice. The percentage of dose administered, detected as DNA adducts increased in all tissues as the dose decreased for all three complex mixtures. These data have important implications for risk assessment of these complex mixtures.
