Resumo: Alterations indicative of apoptosis are potential genetic markers in the prevention of cancer, since they point to genotoxic effects. In this study, the frequencies of apoptotic alterations (pyknosis, condensed chromatin, and karyorrhexis) in exfoliated cells of the oral mucosa were evaluated in two groups of 30 individuals each. The exposed group consisted of individuals who handled chemical substances in university biology, chemistry, and pharmacology research laboratories, and the control group included people with no history of occupational exposure to these substances. Nuclear alterations indicative of apoptosis were significantly more frequent in the exposed group (p< 0.0001). The result shows the genotoxic effect of chemical substances used in these areas of laboratory research and highlights the health risks for individuals with such occupational exposure. Although the majority of individuals in the exposed group reported using personal or collective protective equipment, the high frequency of apoptosis in the exposed group shows the need for programs to prevent occupational exposure in university laboratories, as well as for workplace supervision in such research facilities.

Neste estudo, foram avaliadas as freqüências de alterações indicativas de apoptose (picnose, cromatina condensada e cariorréxis) em células esfoliadas da mucosa oral de trinta indivíduos que lidam com substâncias químicas em laboratórios acadêmicos de pesquisa das áreas de Ciências Biológicas, Químicas e Farmacêuticas (grupo exposto-GE), comparando-as às obtidas em igual número de indivíduos sem história de exposição ocupacional a mutágenos (grupo controle-GC). As alterações nucleares degenerativas indicativas de apoptose foram significativamente mais freqüentes no GE (p< 0,0001). Esse resultado evidencia o efeito genotóxico de compostos químicos utilizados na pesquisa acadêmica e aponta para riscos à saúde dos indivíduos que estão sob este tipo de exposição ocupacional. Embora a maioria dos entrevistados tenha declarado uso de equipamento para proteção individual e/ou coletiva, a elevada freqüência de apoptose observada no grupo exposto revela a necessidade de implantação de programas de prevenção à exposição ocupacional nas universidades e supervisão do ambiente de trabalho dos seus laboratórios de pesquisa nas áreas amostradas nesse estudo.INCA2006-12-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigos, Avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/184810.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2006v52n4.1848Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 52 No. 4 (2006): Oct.Nov./Dec.; 337-343Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 52 Núm. 4 (2006): oct./nov./dic.; 337-343Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 52 n. 4 (2006): out./nov./dez.; 337-3432176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1848/1122Meireles, José Roberto Cardoso Lopes, Maíza Alves Alves, Nora Ney Cerqueira, Eneida de Moraes Marcílio info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:27:25Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1848Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:27:25Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
