Abstract [en]

Hemoglobin (Hb) adducts are used to measure reactive compounds/metabolites in vivo. Schiff base adducts from aldehydes to N-termini in Hb have been measured by GC-MS/MS after stabilisation through reduction, and detachment by a modified Edman procedure. This paper describes a further development using 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and its probable metabolite, 2,5-furandialdehyde (FDA), as model compounds. Reference compounds were synthesized and characterized. The conditions for the reduction of the Schiff bases were optimized using NaBH(3)CN as a mild reducing agent, and steps used in the earlier method could be deleted. The adduct from FDA could not be specifically analysed, as selective reduction of the imine could not be achieved. In a few samples of human blood, background levels of 10-35 pmol/g globin of the HMF adduct were observed. Half-lifes of the reversible Schiff base adduct from HMF were determined to 3.4h at 37 degrees C and 10.9h at 25 degrees C. The developed method showed good sensitivity and reproducibility for the analysis of the Schiff base from HMF, with improvements regarding simplicity of work-up procedures due to mild conditions. The developed method could be explored for application to adducts from other aldehydes bound as Schiff bases to N-termini in Hb.

Abstract [en]

Human exposure to harmful compounds in the environment, from intake via food, occupational exposures or other sources, could have health implications. Exposure to reactive compounds/metabolites can be identified and quantified as hemoglobin (Hb) adducts by mass spectrometry. This thesis aimed at improved synthetic pathways for reference standards, and improved analytical methods for adducts to N-terminal valine in Hb from a range of reactive compounds; isocyanates, aldehydes, methyl vinyl ketone (MVK), and diepoxybutane (DEB).

Isocyanates form urea adducts with N-terminal valine by carbamoylation, which are detachable as hydantoins by hydrolysis. A new synthetic pathway for reference standards of adducts from isocyanates and a method for their analysis by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) were developed.

Aldehydes form reversible imines (Schiff bases) with N-termini in Hb. After stabilisation by reduction and detachment by isothiocyanates using modified Edman methods, these adducts could be analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or LC/MS. 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural, its metabolites, and other aldehydes related to exposure via food, were studied with regard to analysis by these methods with synthesised standard references. A considerably improved analytical method for imines was developed. Many of the studied adducts are too short-lived in vivo or in vitro to be used for long-term biomonitoring. However, different approaches for the analysis were evaluated.

Through synthesised reference standards, an observed unknown adduct in blood was verified as the adduct from MVK. There exist both natural and anthropogenic sources for MVK.

DEB, metabolite of butadiene, forms a cyclic adduct to valine-N. A new approach using hydrazinolysis of protein and enrichment by molecularly imprinted solid-phase extraction was tested on synthesised reference DEB-adduct and gave promising results.

Synthesised standards were characterized by NMR, LC/MS and GC/MS.
