ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of occupational wireless fidelity(Wi-Fi) microwave radiation on testosterone synthesis in male workers. METHODS: A total of 51 male workers exposed to microwave radiation in Wi-Fi test station of a mobile phone manufacturer were selected as exposure group by judgment sampling method. They were divided into <2.0 years subgroup and ≥2.0 years subgroup according to the length of work years. At the same time, 30 male workers who were not exposed to occupational hazards in the same factory were selected as the control group. Serum total cholesterol level was detected by colorimetry. Serum testosterone, cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP), cytochrome P450 17 A1(P450 c17), cytochrome P450 cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme(P450 scc), levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The relative expression of P450 scc and P450 c17 mRNA in whole blood was measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: The levels of serum testosterone, P450 c17 and the relative expression of P450 c17 mRNA in workers of the exposure group were lower than that in the control group(P≤0.05), and the above indexes in the sub-exposure group with work age ≥2.0 years was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in levels of serum total cholesterol, cAMP, P450 scc and relative expression of P450 scc in whole blood among the exposed group,two subgroups and the control group(P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Long-term exposure to Wi-Fi microwave radiation can inhibit the expression of P450 c17 mRNA and the synthesis of P450 c17 protein, both are key enzymes for testosterone synthesis in male workers, thereby affecting the synthesis and secretion of testosterone.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate whether the identification of acrylonitrile, an occupational hazard factor for the industry of injection molding and plastic products, reported in literature is reasonable, and to put forward some recommendations.@*Methods@#Professional articles published from 1990 to 2016 were searched, and an analysis was performed for the data on the determination of acrylonitrile in the industry of injection molding and plastic products from 2003 to 2016 in Longhua Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Shenzhen.@*Results@#According to the literature, the detection rate of acrylonitrile was 10.7%, and the detection results did not exceed the limit.@*Conclusion@#At present, acrylonitrile may not be used as a routine test item for the industry of injection molding and plastic products, in order to save manpower and material resources.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) RsaI/PstI and DraI polymorphisms in workers exposed to benzene.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A cross-sectional survey was carried out. A total of 71 workers exposed to benzene were included in observation group and the same number of people without occupational benzene exposure were included in control group. Blood samples from the two groups were collected and genotyping for CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI and DraI were conducted using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were no significant differences in CYP2E1 DraI genotype and allele distributions between the observation group and the control group (χ² = 2.374, P > 0.05; χ² = 2.113, P > 0.05). Significant differences in CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI genotype and allele distributions between the two groups were observed (χ² = 9.129, P < 0.01; χ² = 6.028, P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Mutations at CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI can enhance the expression of CYP2E1 and this suggests individuals with the mutated gene have increased susceptibility to chronic benzene poisoning.</p>
