EFEK GENETIK RACUN Yakni dapat menyebabkan gangguan struktur dan jumlah kromosom a). Aneuploidisasi Susunan kromosom di dalam sel kelamin ( spermatozoa atau sel telur) tidak memisah. Sehingga jika terjadi fertilisasi, maka anak yang lahir memiliki susunan kromosom kurang atau lebih. Anak lahir cacat/ abnormal. b). Klastogenesis DNA rusak, misalnya akibat sinar ultraviolet atau bahan kimia. Anak lahir cacat/ abnormal. c). Mutagenesis Terjadi perubahan struktur gen, sehingga anak yang lahir akan cacat/ abnormal.

Misalnya Tetradecanoyl Phorbol Acetate ( TPA), Phenolbarbital, Hydrocarbon terklorinasi, Saccharin, Butylated Hydroxyanisole dan Butylated Hydroxytoluol. b. Cytotoxic Merupakan penyebab kanker sebagai implikasi dari iritasi kronis, kemudian menjadi agen yang mengakibatkan sel menjadi degeratif sebagai konpensasi proliferasi yang menaikkan risiko kanker. Misalnya. Nitrolotriacetic Acid ( NTA)

c. Hormon Modifying Pada Usia di atas 40 tahun, hormon terumata estrogen dapat menyebabkan kanker. Misalnya. Estrogen, Androgen, 3-Aminotriazole, Ethylenethiourea Imunopressor Proses pemberian kekebalan kadang-kadang dapat menimbulkan kanker. Misalnya pemberian serum azathioprine pada hewan dapat menaikkan risiko leukemia dan pemberian obat 6-mercaptopurine dapat menaikkan risiko lymphoma. d. Solid Bahan padat dapat mendukung untuk proliferasi sel, sehingga menjadi kanker.Misalnya. Asbestos, Kompleks Iron-Carbohidrat

Lead

Lead Paint The use of lead in residential paint was banned in 1977 Lead-containing pigments still are used for outdoor paint products because of their bright colors and weather resistant properties Tetraethyl and tetramethyl lead are still used as additives in gasoline in several countries

Sources of Exposure Soil and dust Paint chips Contaminated water Parents lead-related occupation Folk remedies Congenital exposure Pica Developmental delay

Toxicocokinetics and Toxicoynamics Absorption: Lungs: depends on size particle GI: Adults: 20-30% Children: as much as 50% of dietary lead Inadequate intake of iron, calcium, and total calories are associated with higher lead levels Skin: Inorganic lead is not absorbed Organic lead is well absorbed Lead is carried bound to the RBC

Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacoynamics Distributed extensively throughout tissues: bone, teeth, liver, lung, kidney, brain, and spleen

Lead crosses the BBB and concentrates in the gray matter Body lead storage: bones- can constitute a source of remobilization and continued toxicity after the exposure has ceased Lead crosses the BBB and concentrates in the gray matter Lead crosses the placenta Excretion: Kidneys. The excretion increases with increasing body stores (30g-200 g/day) Feces

Clinical Manifestation Acute toxicity Acute encephalopathy, renal failure and severe GI symptoms

Chronic and Long Term Toxicity- Pathophysiology Lead has affinity for SH groups and is toxic to zinc-dependent enzyme systems Heme synthesis: hemoglobin, cytochromes Steroid metabolism and membrane integrity Interference in vitamin D synthesis in renal tubular cells (conversion of 1-hydroxyvitamin D to 1,25-hydroxyvitamin D)

Mitochondrion Copro* Uropor PBG ALA* Copro-0 Copro Protoporphyrin IX* Heme Cytoch-C Bilirubin + Fe ALA-D Pb Ferro-C 4Fe++ ALA-S Oxidase (microsomal) Glycine Succinyl-Coa ALA- aminolevulinic acid  in plasma and urine COPRO- coprorphyrinogen  in urine Protoporphyrin  accumulates in the RBC

General Signs and Symptoms of Lead Toxicity Fatigue Irritability Lethargy Paresthesis Myalgias Abdominal pain Tremor Headache Vomiting Weight loss Constipation Loss of libido Motor neuropathy Encephalopathy Cerebral edema Seizures Coma Severe abdominal cramping Epiphyseal lead lines in children (growth arrest) Renal failure

Range of Lead-induced Health Effects in Adults and Children Blood lead levels Adults Children 10 g/dL Hypertension may occur Crosses placenta Impairment IQ, growth Partial inhibition of heme synthesis 20 g/dL Inhibition of heme synthesis Increased erythrocyte protoporphyrin Beginning impairment of nerve conduction velocity 30 g/dL Systolic hypertension Impaired hearing() Impaired vitamin D metabolism 40 g/dL Infertility in males Renal effects Neuropathy Fatigue, headache, abd pain Hemoglobin synthesis inhibition 50 g/dL Anemia, GI sx, headache, tremor Colicky abd pain, neuropathy 100 g/dL Lethargy, seizures, encephalopathy Encephalopathy, anemia, nephropathy, seizures

Childhood Lead Poisoning Childhood lead poisoning is now defined as a blood lead level of 10 g/dl

The average lead level of American children is 2 g/dl 8.9% of American children have lead poisoning Lead intoxication is more prevalent in minority groups and among those living in the northeast

Neurotoxicity of Lead in Childhood Mental retardation in severe lead intoxication  5 points in IQ for every 10 g/dl  in blood lead level- population based studies Other adverse developmental outcomes: Aggression Hyperactivity Antisocial behaviors Learning disability- impairment in memory, auditory processing, and visual-motor integration. The IQ is normal. These effects has been demonstrated with blood lead levels as low as 6 g/dl

Arsenic

Introduction Arsenic is common in the environment Sources Groundwater Arsenic containing mineral ores Industrial processes Semiconductor manufacturing (gallium arsenide) Fossil fuels Wood treated with arsenic preservatives Metallurgy Smelting (copper, zinc, lead) and refining of metals and ores Glass manufacturing

Introduction Commercial products Food Others Wood preservatives Pesticides Herbicides Fungicides Food Seafood and fish Others Antiparasitic drugs Folk remedies

Soil Pica Soil pica behavior: when children ingest large amounts of soil at a time (e.g. up to 1 teaspoon or 5,000mg) Children 1 to 2 years old have strongest soil pica behavior, which may occur as part of their normal exploratory behavior Preschool children also purposely eat soil for unknown reasons Some cultures promote eating soil, specifically clay, as part of a cultural practice

Toxicokinetics T1/2 of inorganic arsenic in the blood is 10 hrs and of organic arsenic is around 30 hours 2-4 weeks after the exposure ceases, most of the remaining arsenic in the body is found in keratin-rich tissues (nails, hair, skin)

Toxicokinetics Inorganic arsenic is converted to organic arsenic (biomethylation to monomethyl arsonic- MMA or DMA) in the liver. This may represent a process of detoxification Renally excreted (30-50% of inorganic arsenic is excreted in about 3 days). Both forms are excreted depend on the acuteness of the exposure and dose

Pathophysiology Trivalent forms: Pentavalent forms bind to sulfhydryl groups leading to inhibition of enzymatic systems inhibit the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosporylation. These lead to inhibition of ATP production Pentavalent forms can replace the stable phosphate ester bond in ATP and produce an arsenic ester stable bond which is not a high energy bond Endothelial damage, loss of capillary integrity, capillary leakage, volume loss, shock

Manifestations of acute arsenic poisoning Bodily system affected Symptoms or signs Time of onset Systemic Thirst Hypovolemia, Hypotension Minutes Minutes to hours Gastrointestinal Garlic or metallic taste Burning mucosa Nausea and vomiting Diarrhea Abdominal pain Hematemesis Hematochezia, melena Rice-water stools Immediate Hours Hematopoietic system Hemolysis Hematuria Lymphopenia Pancytopenia Several weeks Pulmonary (primarily in inhalational exposures) Cough Dyspnea Chest Pain Pulmonary edema Liver Jaundice Fatty degeneration Central necrosis Days Kidneys Proteinuria Acute renal failure Hours to days

Palmer Keratosis

Mercury

Mercury Occurs in three forms (elemental, inorganic salts, and organic compounds) Contamination results from mining, smelting, and industrial discharges. Mercury in water can be converted by bacteria to organic mercury (more toxic) in fish. Can also be found in thermometers, dental amalgams, fluorescent light bulbs, disc batteries, electrical switches, folk remedies, chemistry sets and vaccines.

Mercury - Exposure Elemental liquid at room temperature that volatizes readily rapid distribution in body by vapor, poor in GI tract Inorganic poorly absorbed in GI tract, but can be caustic dermal exposure has resulted in toxicity Organic lipid soluble and well absorbed via GI, lungs and skin can cross placenta and into breast milk

Elemental Mercury At high concentrations, vapor inhalation produces acute necrotizing bronchitis, pneumonitis, and death. Long term exposure affects CNS. Early: insomnia, forgetfulness, anorexia, mild tremor Late: progressive tremor and erethism (red palms, emotional lability, and memory impairment) Salivation, excessive sweating, renal toxicity (proteinuria, or nephrotic syndrome) Dental amalgams do not pose a health risk.

Inorganic Mercury Gastrointestinal ulceration or perforation and hemorrhage are rapidly produced, followed by circulatory collapse. Breakdown of mucosal barriers leads to increased absorption and distribution to kidneys (proximal tubular necrosis and anuria). Acrodynia (Pink disease) usually from dermal exposure maculopapular rash, swollen and painful extremities, peripheral neuropathy, hypertension, and renal tubular dysfunction.

Organic Mercury Toxicity occurs with long term exposure and effects the CNS. Signs progress from paresthesias to ataxia, followed by generalized weakness, visual and hearing impairment, tremor and muscle spasticity, and then coma and death. Teratogen with large chronic exposure Asymptomatic mothers with severely affected infants Infants appeared normal at birth, but psychomotor retardation, blindness, deafness, and seizures developed over time.
