| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have intended to assess quantitatively the cancer risk of past-inhaled airborne particles suspended in air. We have collected particulate samples from air in Tokyo annually, and prepared the extracts of particulate samples (hereinafter tar). We administered tar intratracheally to gpt delta mice, and analyzed in vivo mutagenicity in the lung. At 0.3 mg of tar per mouse, the mutation frequency was 1.5 times that in the vehicle control with the 2010 sample, and the similar level of enhancement was also observed with the 1980 sample. The frequency of G>T base substitutions, which are induced by oxidative stress, was significantly higher than with the vehicle with the 2010 sample. These results suggest that oxidative stress contributes to enhanced mutagenesis in lung tissues exposed to tar. Analysis of tar indicates that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with high carcinogenic potency, eg. cyclopenta[c,d]pyrene, are major fractions in carcinogenic potency of whole PAHs.
