Neopterin as a new biomarker for the evaluation of occupational exposure to silica

Silica is one of the most documented workplace contaminants. Long-term occupational exposure to silica is associated with an increased risk for respiratory diseases such as silicosis, tuberculosis, chronic bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancer. Furthermore, a variety of i...

description Silica is one of the most documented workplace contaminants. Long-term occupational exposure to silica is associated with an increased risk for respiratory diseases such as silicosis, tuberculosis, chronic bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancer. Furthermore, a variety of immune-dysfunction-related diseases has been reported in silicotic individuals. Preliminary studies indicating enhanced levels of autoantibodies and several cytokines reflect an involvement of the immune system in the pathogenesis of silicosis and resulting complications. As an early and valuable biomarker of cellular immunity, neopterin is a low-molecular-mass compound belonging to the class of pteridines. It is produced by guanosine triphosphate via interferon-gamma, following the activation of T cells. The aim of the present study was to observe the alteration of neopterin in silica exposure, and also to show whether screening of neopterin levels may be of use for assessment of occupational exposure to silica. In this study, serum and urinary neopterin levels, both in silica-exposed workers ( n=22) and healthy volunteers ( n=20), were investigated by ELISA, spectrophotometry and HPLC techniques. Serum neopterin levels of control and exposed groups were measured as 5.98+ or -0.44 and 7.86+ or -1.97 nmol/l, respectively ( P
