Studies demonstrating TCE-induced rare form of nephrotoxicity in Because it has a relatively short half-life, TCE is not commonly detected in biomonitoring surveys, and the percentage of subjects with detectable levels (> 0.1 ng/mL) has declined from about 10% to 1% between samples collected in 1988–1994 and those collected in 2003–2004 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2009; Wu and Schaum 2000]. increased risk (Moore et al.

However, the U.S. EPA’s characterization of the epidemiologic evidence (U.S. EPA 2011d) considered multiple aspects of the data as a whole and did not rely solely on the meta-analysis findings.

Finally, animal bioassay, mechanistic, and toxicokinetic data provide further corroboration and biological plausibility to the epidemiologic findings, thus supporting a causal link between TCE exposure and cancer (Table 1). Key issues in the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor agonism and cell signaling in trichloroethylene toxicity. Supported by the analyses described above and following the U.S. EPA’s Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (U.S. EPA 2005), TCE is characterized as “carcinogenic to humans” by all routes of exposure (U.S. EPA 2011d). Trichloroethylene--a review of the literature from a health effects perspective. Two additional key issues regarding the U.S. EPA’s interpretation (U.S. EPA 2011d) of the cancer epidemiologic evidence for kidney cancer, NHL, and liver cancer have been raised in peer review and public comments: the modest magnitude of the RRm estimates for the three cancer types, and the role of meta-analysis within a causality determination. 2006). /c3/ANnn/wDkElK9d/8A3N/9nn/+QSUr13/9zf8A2ef/AOQSUr13/wDc3/2ef/5BJTZ6ZcXdSxQ7 qn/0okpX/Oz6q/8Alz0//wBiqf8A0okpX/Oz6q/+XPT/AP2Kp/8ASiSlf87Pqr/5c9P/APYqn/0o iISU0ftmT/p8z/3HU/8ApZJSvtmT/p8z/wBx1P8A6WSUr7Zk/wCnzP8A3HU/+lklKbnZbHBzMjNa The NRC (2006) identified a number of weaknesses in previous meta-analyses of TCE carcinogenicity, such as subjective assessment of quality and lack of sensitivity analyses.

TCE is carcinogenic to humans by all routes of exposure. Adobe InDesign CS3 (5.0) In addition to the epidemiologic studies of specific diseases (e.g., systemic sclerosis), changes in cytokine levels reflecting an inflammatory immune response have been reported in relation to TCE exposure in occupational (Iavicoli et al. p71JTk5P/iq6d/6b8/8A8/dNSUr6p/8AiV6N/wCm/F/881pKZ/WTZ+xcnf6W32T6+70/5xn0vT9y Discussion: Toxicokinetic modeling aided in characterizing the toxicological role of the complex metabolism and multiple metabolites of TCE. p1Pq7hZmPnmy/CycdvpuG+7Kbe2ZbpsDG6+aSkXWsDqbc5zqnZeUywF4Nbai1gc536MbxOiSmj9i Trichloroethylene may cause irritation to the eyes and skin. 9JpKV9nu/wC4eV/7kq//AEmkpX2e7/uHlf8AuSr/APSaSnW+rVVjOokvx7qh6bvdZmMyBy3TY1o+ We also provide an overall summary of the hazard conclusions for noncancer toxicity.

Because TCE moves from water to air easily, it is not usually found in surface soils or in open surface water.

The evidence was more limited for TCE-induced lymphohematopoietic cancers in rats and mice (Henschler et al. AJBJSo/7r3/+5Or/AMgkpUf917//AHJ1f+QSUqP+69//ALk6v/IJKeh+q4/V8v8AR2V/R0flNyZ0 Because TCE is systemically distributed and undergoes systemic metabolism from all routes of exposure, there is no reason to expect that cancers such as kidney cancer, NHL, or liver cancer, which originate in separate tissues, would be dependent on route of exposure. Only a few epidemiologic studies examined exposure–response 1986)]. EPA 820-R-11-002. Compensatory cell proliferation occurs to repair damage. A more in-depth analysis (including meta-analysis) of the epidemiologic studies was conducted for kidney cancer, liver cancer, and NHL. vUzf+5Gd/wC5Cr+9JSvUzf8AuRnf+5Cr+9JSvUzf+5Gd/wC5Cr+9JSvUzf8AuRnf+5Cr+9JSvUzf /wBiqf8A0okpX/Oz6q/+XPT/AP2Kp/8ASiSlf87Pqr/5c9P/APYqn/0okpX/ADs+qv8A5c9P/wDY rONn4zsj7dTdTu2bPWyBkTG+Yj6PKR2UN2v1vqNFgvw6MLMqva+PtVWK20HadS2XtkFNXOH+u/6X The U.S. EPA’s final assessment also incorporated input from two independent peer reviews by the U.S. EPA’s Science Advisory Board (U.S. EPA SAB 2002, 2011), other federal agencies (U.S. EPA 2009b, 2011b), and the public (U.S. EPA 2009a).

Its high blood solubility results in a less desirable slower induction of anesthesia.
