Abstract

Arsenic is a well-known human carcinogen with a ubiquitous distribution in the natural environment. Chronic exposure to inorganic arsenic involves a biotransformation process that leds to the main excretion of organic methylated metabolites, such as monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), as well as the parental inorganic species. Interindividual variation in arsenic metabolism has been extensively reported, and polymorphisms in genes involved in such process could be related to changes in the arsenic excretion profile and the response to chronic exposures. Our analysis of the metabolic profiles in three groups of workers exposed to different arsenic exposure levels showed high amounts of inorganic arsenic and MMA in the most-exposed workers versus the least-exposed workers, in whom high amounts of DMA were observed. With respect to the role of different genetic polymorphisms in the glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes in the modulation of the urinary profiles, for the overall population only a tendency was just observed between GSTM1 null and MMA excretion as well as between GSTP1 val/val and DMA excretion.

摘要

砷是一种广为人知的人类致癌物,在自然环境中分布广泛。长期接触无机砷涉及一个生物转化过程,该过程导致有机甲基化代谢产物(如一甲基胂酸(MMA)和二甲基胂酸(DMA))以及母体无机物种的主要排泄。砷代谢的个体差异已被广泛报道,参与该过程的基因多态性可能与砷排泄谱的变化以及对长期暴露的反应有关。我们对三组暴露于不同砷暴露水平的工人的代谢谱分析表明,与暴露最少的工人相比,暴露最多的工人体内无机砷和MMA含量较高,而在暴露最少的工人中观察到大量的DMA。关于谷胱甘肽S-转移酶(GST)基因中不同基因多态性在调节尿液谱中的作用,对于总体人群,仅在GSTM1缺失与MMA排泄之间以及GSTP1 val/val与DMA排泄之间观察到一种趋势。
