Biomarkers for Risk Assessment

5429W-4

Biological Marker of Exposure

An exogenous substance or its metabolite or the product of an interaction between a xenobiotic agent and some target molecule or cell that is measured in a compartment within an organism.

5429W-5

Ideal Biomarker of Exposure

· Quantitatively relatable to prior exposure to specific chemical

· Quantitatively relatable to, or predictive of, later developing disease

5429W-6

Sometimes, we only need a qualitative, yes/no answer.

Have you been drinking again?

5429W-7

Sometimes quantitation is required.

But I only had one beer!

5429W-8

Desirable Attributes of Biomarkers of Exposure

· Pollutant specific

· Available for analysis by noninvasive techniques

· Sensitive (detectable at trace concentrations)

· Inexpensive

· Integrates exposures from all media

Strategies to Relate Markers of Exposure to Prior Exposures

What information do we need to relate a biomarker of exposure to prior exposures?

5429W-10

Exposure? Marker

If we want to be more quantitative, more information is required.

• Rate of formation of biomarker

• Rate of formation of biomarker

From this information, we can predict the steady-state concentrations of the marker following various exposure scenarios.

5429W-11

Exposure? Marker

Mathematical Models

· If we have information on rate of formation and removal of a biomarker of exposure, and the factors that influence those rates, we can develop a mathematical model that will predict the concentration of the marker following various exposure regimens.

· The concentration of a biomarker cannot be used to indicate a unique exposure scenario, but can indicate the types of exposure regimens that would produce the indicated level of biomarker

A Second Strategy:

A battery of biomarkers of exposure with differing

Strategies to Relate Markers of Exposure to Health Outcome

Need to know which markers can be associated with the

disease outcome and the degree of the association. That

is, given a certain level of a biomarker of exposure, what

is the probability of getting the disease?

5429W-17

Marker? Disease

What information is required to relate markers of exposure to probability of health outcome?

• Mechanism of disease induction

• Quantitative relationship between marker and probability of progression to adverse health effect

5429W-18

Marker? Disease

Example:

Predicting cancer induction using DNA adducts as biomarkers

· Identify DNA adducts that are formed by exposure to chemical

· Determine t1/2 of adducts

· Determine mutagenic potential of adducts

· For adducts with long t1/2 and mutagenic potential, determine if mutations induced by adduct are present in tumors induced by chemical

· In animals, develop pharmacodynamic models that describe a quantitative relationship between adduct levels and cancer induction

5429W-19

Marker? Disease

Example: DNA adducts of vinyl chloride (VC)

VC causes liver cancer in humans and animals. In rats, preweanling rats are more susceptible than adults.

Conclusions

· Biomarkers can be valuable for reducing uncertainties in assessing risk for disease from chemical exposures.

· More information is needed on mechanisms of disease induction by chemicals; such studies will suggest the most appropriate biomarkers of the biologically effective dose.

· Much research effort will be required to establish quantitative relationships between the level of markers present and both the degree of prior exposure and the predictability of health outcome.

Criteria Air Pollutants

Two oxidizing agents: Ozone and Nitrogen Dioxide

Ozone

– 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxodG)

Found in oral swabs, white blood cells and urine

Urinary 8-oxodG results from DNA repair processes

Nonspecific marker of oxidative stress

– Clara cell protein in serum

Reported to be sensitive to as low as 0.060-0.084 ppm ozone

5429W-28

Criteria Air Pollutants (Con’t)

Two oxidizing agents: Ozone and Nitrogen Dioxide

Nitrogen Dioxide

– Can form 8′-nitroguanosine in RNA and 8-nitro-2′-deoxyguanosine in DNA

The latter is unstable

The 8-nitroguaniosine has been used as a marker of endogenous reactive nitrogen species

– Urinary nitrate does not correlate with NO2 exposure

– NO-heme (cannot distinguish between endogenous and exogenous reactive nitrogen)

· Offer many opportunities for chemical-specific biomarkers of exposures:

– Parent compound or metabolites in blood, urine or exhaled breath

– DNA or protein adducts

· Metals

– Markers of exposure are the metals in blood, urine, hair and toe or fingernails.

· PAHs

– Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene

– Total bulks DNA adducts by 32P-postlabeling technique

· Dioxin-like compounds

– Compounds in fat

· Mixtures

– Need signature markers for specific sources of pollutants

5429W-37

· Proteomics and Genomics

– Exciting new tools that may provide excellent biomarkers in the future

– Currently we are still learning how to interpret our findings

· Sensitive Subpopulations

– Polymorphisms can be valuable biomarkers

– Examples:

· NA D(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase: enzyme responsible for reducing reactive quinones to less reactive hydroquinones

· Glutathione-S-transferase M1: enzyme required for detoxication of many electrophilic metabolites

· DNA repairs enzyme
