Hemoglobin adducts of the activated carcinogenic aromatic amine 4-aminobiphenyl have been measured in a case-control study of lung cancer. Data obtained for lung cancer cases are compared to those obtained for controls that consisted of patients with either chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or non-pulmonary cancers. Both simple and multivariate analysis found a positive association of 4-aminobiphenyl-hemoglobin adducts with the quantity of tobacco smoked as determined by either urine cotinine or questionnaire data. No association was found between 4-aminobiphenyl-hemoglobin adducts and cancer diagnosis, and adduct levels were not related to remote tobacco use, i.e., total pack years of smoking. There was no association between the levels of adducts detected and the ability of an individual to metabolize debrisoquine (debrisoquine metabolic phenotype, CYP2D6). Whereas 4-aminobiphenyl-hemoglobin adduct levels reflected recent tobacco smoking, they were not correlated with lung cancer risk.

D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D003367 Cotinine The N-glucuronide conjugate of cotinine is a major urinary metabolite of NICOTINE. It thus serves as a biomarker of exposure to tobacco SMOKING. It has CNS stimulating properties. Scotine
D003647 Debrisoquin An adrenergic neuron-blocking drug similar in effects to GUANETHIDINE. It is also noteworthy in being a substrate for a polymorphic cytochrome P-450 enzyme. Persons with certain isoforms of this enzyme are unable to properly metabolize this and many other clinically important drugs. They are commonly referred to as having a debrisoquin 4-hydroxylase polymorphism. Debrisoquine,Tendor
D005260 Female Females
D006454 Hemoglobins The oxygen-carrying proteins of ERYTHROCYTES. They are found in all vertebrates and some invertebrates. The number of globin subunits in the hemoglobin quaternary structure differs between species. Structures range from monomeric to a variety of multimeric arrangements.
