Principles of Toxicology : The Study of Poisons Wongwiwat Tassaneeyakul Department of Toxicology Khon Kaen University [email protected] W. Tassaneeyakul 1 To know scope and definition of toxicology, Describe how toxicologist work and manage toxicants, Understand dose-response relationship and interactions W. Tassaneeyakul 2 August 21st, 1986, 9:30 pm >1700 people and 3000 dead cow!!! W. Tassaneeyakul 3 Asia's arsenic crisis deepens Another Indian state succumbs to well water poisoning. 15 February 2003 TOM CLARKE Hand-pump wells tap into natural accumulations of arsenic. W. Tassaneeyakul 4 Thalidomide tragedy W. Tassaneeyakul 5 Fixed drug eruption Drug rash W. Tassaneeyakul SJS 6 A villager uses a dip net to remove dead fish from the Bang Pakong river. The fish, bred in floating baskets, died from pollution in the river. _ TAWATCHAI KEMGUMNERD Friday 15 November 2002 BangkokPost W.

Tassaneeyakul 9 TOXICOLOGY : The study of the adverse effects of a toxicant on living organisms. Toxicology related closely to Pharmacology, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Chemistry, Epidemiology, Pathology, Genetics, Public Health, Medicine, etc. W. Tassaneeyakul 10 Hazard – physical situation that can damage: – people – plant – Environment Risk – likelihood of hazard occurring Risk = hazard * probability * consequence W. Tassaneeyakul 11 W. Tassaneeyakul Source: Muckter, 2003 12 1. Toxicant/ Toxin/ Poison/ Hazard any agent capable of producing a deleterious response in a biological system 2. Adverse/Toxic effects any unwanted change from an organism’s normal state dependent upon the concentration of active compound at the target site (receptor)for a sufficient time. 3. Living organism cellular target sites/ storage depots and enzymes W. Tassaneeyakul 13 COMMON TOXICOLOGY QUESTIONS 1. What is a poison? 2. Where dose it come from? (exposure Q) 3. How does it get into living organism? (exposure Q) 4. What does it do to living organism? (mechanism Q) 5. How can we treat/prevent this toxicity? (clinical Q) W. Tassaneeyakul 14 Routes of Entry: Oral = Ingestion by mouth Dermal = Skin exposure Inhalation = Absorbed by lungs Ocular = Eye exposure W. Tassaneeyakul 15 Why human have to concern with other species toxicology and/or environmental health? W. Tassaneeyakul 16 Classification of Toxic Agents – – – – – Target organ/site (e.g., liver, kidney, blood, lung, nerves) Use (e.g., pesticide, solvent, food additive) Effects (e.g., cancer, mutation, liver injury) Labeling requirements (e.g., explosive, flammable, oxidizer) Poisoning potential (e.g., very or slightly toxic) W. Tassaneeyakul 17 Dose-Response Relationship “Allein die Dosis macht, daß ein Ding kein Gift ist.” (“Dose determines toxicity”) W. Tassaneeyakul 18 THE DOSE MAKES THE POISON All substances are poisons; there is none that is not a poison. The right dose differentiates a poison and a remedy. Paracelsus (1493- 1541) W. Tassaneeyakul 19 W. Tassaneeyakul 20 What is a Response? Change from normal state could be on the molecular, cellular, organ, or organism level--the symptoms Graded vs. Quantal degrees of the same damage vs. all or none W. Tassaneeyakul 21 Dose-response EFFECT non-linear, threshold linear, no threshold Dose W. Tassaneeyakul 22 W. Tassaneeyakul 23 W. Tassaneeyakul 24 W.

Tassaneeyakul 26 Toxicity rating or class 1. Practically nontoxic 2. Slightly toxic 3. Moderately toxic Probable lethal oral dose for human > 15 g/kg 5-15 g/kg 0.5-5 g/kg 4. Very toxic 50-500 mg/kg 5. Extremely toxic 5-50 mg/kg 6. Supertoxic < 5 mg/kg Dosage for average adult more than 1 quart (>0.94 L) between pint and quart (0.470.94L) between ounce and pint (28 mL-0.47L) between teaspoon and ounce (5-28 mL) between 7 drops and teaspoon a taste (less than 7 drops) W. Tassaneeyakul 27 THE DOSE-RESPONSE RELATIONSHIP The dose-response relationship (from C.D. Klaassen, Casarett and Doull’s Toxicology, 5th ed., New York: McGraw-Hill, 1996). W. Tassaneeyakul 28 W. Tassaneeyakul 29 W. Tassaneeyakul 30 Type of Toxic Response Acute vs. Chronic Allergic (hypersensitivity) Idiosyncratic (e.g. G6PD def.) Local vs. Systemic Reversible vs. Irreversible W. Tassaneeyakul 31 Acute Toxicity: (short-term exposure) Blood or Tissue Conc ent rat ion Threshold Concentration SYMPTOMS TIME: Minut es or Hours W. Tassaneeyakul 32 Chronic Toxicity: (repeated exposures) Threshold concent rat ion Blood or Tissue Conc entration SYMPTOMS x x x x x x x x TIME: Weeks, mont hs, years W. Tassaneeyakul 33 Examples: Chronic Effects Carcinogens: – Cause cancer Mutagens: – Cause mutations in an organism’s genetic material Teratogens: – cause birth defects in offspring following exposure of a pregnant female W. Tassaneeyakul 34 W. Tassaneeyakul 35 Drug rash W. Tassaneeyakul 36 Dose-response relationship: LEAD decreased erythrocyte delta-ALAD activity increased zinc protoporphyrin anemia CNS effects decreased peripheral nerve conductivity Nervous paralysis, lead colics Adapted from Elinder C-G et al., Biologisk monitoring av metaller hos människa. Arbetsmiljöfonden, Uppsala, 1991 W. Tassaneeyakul 37 Toxicity Interactions Additive : Synergism : Potentiation : Antagonism : 2+2 = 4 2+3 = 10 0+3 =5 2+(-2) =0 Chemical antagonism Dispositional antagonism Functional antagonism Pharmacological antagonism W. Tassaneeyakul 38 W. Tassaneeyakul 39 Synergist / Synergism: Synergism is increased activity (toxicity) resulting from the effect of one chemical on another. LD50 DDT = 250 mg/kg LD50 synergist = 1,000 mg/kg LD50 DDT + synergist = 50 mg/kg W. Tassaneeyakul 40 Source: van den Brandt et al. 2002 W. Tassaneeyakul 41 W. Tassaneeyakul 42 W. Tassaneeyakul 43 W.

Why dose-response study is so important in toxicology? How can we classify type of toxicity ? Why people response differently to toxicant ? W.
