摘要

Objective: Explore the hepato and hematotoxicity of benzene through in vitro and in vivo evaluation.Methods: Spleenic lymphocytes and hepatocytes were used for the in vitro study. Liver enzymology and lymphocytes were evaluated in 154 petrol filling workers with <10 years and >10 years of exposure and 33 referents.Results: Lymphocytopenia was most marked in study group than in controls. Absolute lymphocyte count were reduced to 1.67±0.3 x 103/mL and 1.49 ±0.4 x 103/mL in workers with <10 years and >10years of exposure than the control (1.9 ±0.3 x 103/mL). This was supported by our in vitro result showing a negative correlation between reduction in viability of lymphocytes and increasing concentration of benzene. The mean value of ALP and ALT in study group was significantly lowered than in control group. The total protein level increased within the normal range in study group than in controls whereas albumin level decreased in study group in contrast with control group. Mean ± SD values of AST and total bilirubin in study group were not elevated from the corresponding value in control group.Conclusion: These in vitro and in vivo results show that human lymphocytes and hepatocytes are sensitive targets of benzene. Introduction Benzene is a ubiquitous industrial solvent and widely distributed environmental contaminant that has been linked to adverse health effect in humans and animals [1-3]. Benzene ranks as the 17th chemical in terms of total annual production in 1994 [4] and therefore represents a significant occupational hazard. Hematotoxicity is the most noted and characteristic systemic effect resulting from intermediate and chronic benzene exposure leading to aplastic anemia, leucopenia and thrombocytopenia [5,6]. Other health effects of benzene include immunological changes which appear largely related to decrease in circulating leukocytes and the ability of lymphoid tissue to produce mature lymphocytes necessary to form antibodies [7,8]. Chronic exposure results in consistent structural and numerical chromosomal aberrations in lymphocytes and bone marrow cells. Benzene metabolites covalently bind to cellular macromolecules (including DNA, RNA and proteins) thereby leading to dysfunction in the bone marrow and other tissues. Along with benzene, one or more reactive benzene metabolites are involved in the health effects. Majority of benzene metabolism occurs in liver by cytochrome P450 and a small amount is metabolized in the bone marrow [9-11], the site of characteristic benzene toxicity (Figure 1).
