To clarify the neurotoxicity of 2-bromopropane (2-BP) in comparison with 1-bromopropane (1-BP), 36 Wistar strain male rats were divided into 4 groups of 9 and exposed daily to 100-ppm 2-BP, 1000-ppm 2-BP, 1000-ppm 1-BP, or fresh air for 8 h a day. Exposure to 1000 ppm of 1-BP was discontinued after 5 or 7 weeks' exposure because of the unexpected appearance of incomplete hindlimb paralysis followed by serious emaciation. The other groups were sacrificed at the end of 12 weeks' exposure. Exposure to 1000 ppm of 2-BP resulted in significant decreases in body weight and motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV) and elongation in distal latency (DL). A ball-like enlargement of myelin sheaths was observed. Significant reductions in the number of erythrocytes, platelets, and leukocytes, testicular germ cell loss, and seminiferous atrophy were also observed in this group, but not in 100-ppm 2-BP group. Exposure to 1000 ppm of 1-BP for 5 or 7 weeks caused a significant decrease in body weight and MCV and elongation in DL. Linearly arranged ovoid- or bubble-like debris of the axons and myelin sheaths in the teased tibial nerves and axonal swelling in gracilis nucleus were found in this group. No significant changes in hematological indices or histopathological findings of the testis were found in this group. In conclusion, 2-BP is neurotoxic to the peripheral nerves in addition to its toxic effects on the reproductive and hematopoietic systems at 1000 ppm. No noticeable changes were found in the rats exposed to 100 ppm of 2-BP. 1-BP is a potent neurotoxicant at 1000 ppm for 5 or 7 weeks, while testicular and hematopoietic toxicity was not found. 相似文献

2-Bromopropane was used as an alternative to chlorofluorocarbons in a Korean electronics factory and caused reproductive and hematopoietic disorders in male and female workers. This causality was revealed by animal studies, and target cells were identified in subsequent studies. After identification of 2-bromopropane toxicity, 1-bromopropane was introduced to the workplace as a new alternative to ozone-depleting solvents. 1-Bromopropane was considered less mutagenic than 2-bromopropane, but, in contrast, animal experiments revealed that 1-bromopropane is a potent neurotoxic compound compared with 2-bromopropane. It was also revealed that 1-bromopropane has reproductive toxicity, but the target cells are different from those of 2-bromopropane. Exposure to 1-bromopropane inhibits spermiation in male rats and disrupts the development of follicles in female rats, in contrast to 2-bromopropane, which targets spermatogonia and oocytes in primordial follicles. After the first animal study describing the neurotoxicity of 1-bromopropane, human cases were reported. Those cases showed decreased sensation of vibration and perception, paresthesia in the lower extremities, decreased sensation in the ventral aspects of the thighs and gluteal regions, stumbling and headache, as well as mucosal irritation, as the initial symptoms. The dose–response of bromopropanes in humans and mechanism(s) underlying the differences in the toxic effects of the two bromopropanes remain to be determined. 相似文献

The present study was performed to investigate the toxic effects of 2-bromopropane (2BP) on the female reproductive system. Female F344 rats were administered 2BP (500 or 1000 mg/kg, i.p.) at intervals of 2 or 3 days for 15-17 days. The body weights were measured and estrous stages were observed throughout the experimental period. Ovulation, organ weights, ovarian histology, and blood biochemistry were investigated on the terminal day of the experiment. Uterine weights in rats treated with 2BP were significantly lower than those in control animals. Body, liver, kidney, and adrenal weights in 2BP-treated rats showed no significant differences from control values. 2BP treatment prolonged estrous cycles and decreased the number of ovulated ova in spontaneous ovulation. In addition, histological examinations showed that the preovulatory follicles in the ovary were altered markedly in 2BP groups. These results show that even in short-term treatment, 2BP injured the ovary, particularly the preovulatory follicles. It appears that these damages of the preovulatory follicles induced by 2BP reduced the numbers of spontaneously ovulated ova in female F344 rats. 相似文献

目的 观察二十二碳六烯酸(DHA)对1-溴丙烷(1-BP)致大鼠学习能力损伤的拮抗作用.方法 将48只健康成年SPF级雄性Wistar大鼠随机分为4组,即对照(玉米油)组、1-BP染毒组和低、高剂量DHA干预组,每组12只.1-BP染毒组和低、高剂量DHA干预组每天灌胃染毒800 mg/kg的1-BP;4 h后,低、高剂量DHA干预组分别灌胃染毒250、500mg/kg的DHA,每日1次,连续11d.染毒第8~11天采用Morris水迷宫试验中的定位导航试验检测大鼠的学习能力.染毒结束后,检测大脑皮层匀浆中还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)、丙二醛(MDA)含量及谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)活力.采用Westernblotting方法检测大脑皮层脑红蛋白(neuroglobin,Ngb)的表达.结果 与对照组比较,1-BP染毒组大鼠游泳总路程和逃避潜伏期延长(P<0.05);与1-BP染毒组相比,各剂量DHA干预组大鼠的游泳路程和逃避潜伏期缩短(P<0.05).与对照组比较,1-BP染毒组大鼠大脑皮层匀浆中GSH含量及GR活力均下降,而1-BP染毒组MDA含量及高剂量DHA干预组GSH含量均升高(P<0.05);与1-BP染毒组比较,各剂量DHA干预组大鼠大脑皮层匀浆中GSH含量及GR活力均升高,MDA含量均下降(P<0.05).与对照组比较,1-BP染毒组和低剂量DHA干预组大鼠大脑皮层匀浆中Ngb蛋白的表达水平均下降,而高剂量DHA干预组Ngb蛋白的表达水平升高(P<0.05);与1-BP染毒组比较,各剂量DHA干预组大鼠大脑皮层匀浆中Ngb蛋白的表达水平均升高(P<0.05).结论 DHA能够减轻1-BP导致的大鼠中枢神经系统氧化应激反应及由此引起的学习能力损伤,激活GR活力、增强Ngb表达可能是DHA的保护机制之一. 相似文献

目的研究1-溴丙烷(1-BP)诱发大鼠性腺基因表达谱的变化,探索1-BP雄性生殖毒性相关的mRNA改变。方法雄性F344/NSIc大鼠12只,随机分为2组,分别吸入新鲜空气或5030mg/m31-BP8h。染毒后16h处死大鼠取出睾丸,运用大鼠性腺cDNA微阵列和real-timePCR方法测定1-BP染毒后性腺相关基因表达谱的变化。结果在大鼠性腺芯片5087个cDNA微点阵中,有62个基因被1-BP显著下调,3个基因显著上调。其中包括性激素合成相关基因细胞色素P450芳香化酶(CYP19a),谷胱苷肽S-转移酶(GSTT1),肌酸激酶(Ckb),髓鞘和淋巴细胞蛋白(Mal)和S100的钙结合蛋白(S100a4)。归类分析结果显示绝大多数变化的基因与蛋白质/脂类代谢相关,其次与应激防御反应相关。实时定量PCR证实了1-BP可引起CYP19a、S100a4、GSTT1和Mal的下调。结论急性高剂量染毒1-BP可引起睾丸组织CYP19a、S100a4、GSTT1、Mal等基因的下调,提示其可能通过内分泌干扰和氧化应激效应而导致雄性生殖毒性。 相似文献

Neurologic abnormalities in workers of a 1-bromopropane factory 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ichihara G Li W Shibata E Ding X Wang H Liang Y Peng S Itohara S Kamijima M Fan Q Zhang Y Zhong E Wu X Valentine WM Takeuchi Y 《Environmental health perspectives》2004,112(13):1319-1325
We reported recently that 1-bromopropane (1-BP; n-propylbromide, CAS Registry no. 106-94-5), an alternative to ozone-depleting solvents, is neurotoxic and exhibits reproductive toxicity in rats. The four most recent case reports suggested possible neurotoxicity of 1-BP in workers. The aim of the present study was to establish the neurologic effects of 1-BP in workers and examine the relationship with exposure levels. We surveyed 27 female workers in a 1-BP production factory and compared 23 of them with 23 age-matched workers in a beer factory as controls. The workers were interviewed and examined by neurologic, electrophysiologic, hematologic, biochemical, neurobehavioral, and postural sway tests. 1-BP exposure levels were estimated with passive samplers. Tests with a tuning fork showed diminished vibration sensation of the foot in 15 workers exposed to 1-BP but in none of the controls. 1-BP factory workers showed significantly longer distal latency in the tibial nerve than did the controls but no significant changes in motor nerve conduction velocity. Workers also displayed lower values in sensory nerve conduction velocity in the sural nerve, backward recalled digits, Benton visual memory test scores, pursuit aiming test scores, and five items of the Profile of Mood States (POMS) test (tension, depression, anxiety, fatigue, and confusion) compared with controls matched for age and education. Workers hired after May 1999, who were exposed to 1-BP only (workers hired before 1999 could have also been exposed to 2-BP), showed similar changes in vibration sense, distal latency, Benton test scores, and depression and fatigue in the POMS test. Time-weighted average exposure levels in the workers were 0.34-49.19 ppm. Exposure to 1-BP could adversely affect peripheral nerves or/and the central nervous system. 相似文献

Previously, we reported that prenatal exposure to 1-bromopropane (1-BP) causes the accumulation of bromide (Br-) in the brain of rat pups. Here, we aimed to investigate the effects of Br- accumulation in rat pups prenatally exposed to 1-BP vapor. Dam rats were exposed to 1-BP (400 or 700 ppm; 1-BP group) by inhalation, or to NaBr (20 mM; Br- group) in drinking water during gestation days 1–20. We also analyzed pentylenetetrazole (PTZ, 60 mg/kg, ip)-induced behavioral changes in pups prenatally exposed to 1-BP or Br- on postnatal day (PND) 14. PTZ-induced epileptic convulsions were inhibited in both 1-BP (700 ppm) and Br- groups. The inhibition of neuronal excitability induced by Br- was evaluated electrophysiologically using the hippocampal slices obtained from PND14–16 pups. PTZ (2 mM) failed to induce epileptiform discharge in the presence of 1.2 mM Br- in the slices obtained from the control group. However, it induced epileptiform discharge following the removal of Br-, by perfusing artificial cerebrospinal fluid into the slices obtained from the Br- group. Our results indicate that Br- accumulates in the brain of neonatal rat pups prenatally exposed to 1-BP vapor suppressed neuronal excitability. 相似文献
