Abstract:
:The heterocyclic amine 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) is considered as a human carcinogenic or mutagenic compound that is produced from the co-condensation of creatinine and amino acids as meats cook at high temperatures. The cooking of meats at high temperatures produces fumes, and these fumes can be suspended as aerosols via the vapor-to-particle (or -droplet) process in a temperature gradient field. Size distributions of the aerosols included a significant portion of nano- and submicron-sized particles, and these can be directly deposited in the lungs and on skin by particle transport phenomena near cooking areas. In this study, for the first time, PhIP-incorporated oleic acid (OA, simulating cooking oil) (PhIP@OA) particles, including individual particulate PhIP as simulated fumes from meat cooking, were constantly produced via collison atomization and subsequent drying processes. The aerosol particles were then dispersed in phosphate-buffered saline for cytotoxicity and senescence-associated β-galactosidase assays, which were compared with dissolved PhIP in dimethyl sulfoxide. PhIP and PhIP@OA did not show significant cytotoxic effects on SHSY5Y, MRC5, and human dermal fibroblast cells compared with the dissolved PhIP but clearly induced premature senescence activities that may be caused by a limited release of PhIP molecules from the particulate PhIP.
