Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) exposure has been associated with the alteration in epigenetic marks that are involved in cancer development. Biotinidase (BTD) and holocarboxylase synthetase (HCS) are 2 major enzymes involved in maintaining the homeostasis of biotinylation, and the deregulation of this pathway has been associated with a number of cancers. However, the link between B[a]P exposure and the dysregulation of BTD/HCS in B[a]P-associated tumorigenesis is unknown.

Breast cancer is the most malignant tumor for women, however, the mechanisms underlying this devastating disease remain unclear. SET is an endogenous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) and involved in many physiological and pathological processes. SET could promote the occurrence of tumor through inhibiting PP2A.

Chromium is a potent human mutagen and carcinogen. The capability of chromium to cause cancers has been known for more than a century, and numerous epidemiological studies have been performed to determine its carcinogenicity. In the post-genome era, cancer has been found to relate to epigenetic mutations.

Objective: Based on magnetic beads based weak cation exchange chromatography (MB-WCX), matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and ClinProTools software, the polypeptides of serum about occupational medicamentosa-like dermatitis induced by trichloroethylene (OMLDT) patients were studied, and a diagnostic model of OMLDT was built.

Methods: According to diagnostic criteria of OMLDT, serum of 28 OMLDT patients and 28 controls which were diagnosed by Shenzhen prevention and treatment center for occupational disease were collected. With the combination of MB-WCX and MALDI-TOF-MS, the polypeptides fingerprint of serum of 14 OMLDT patients and 14 controls were detected, what's more, the ClinProTools software and SNN algorithm was used for screening characteristic polypeptides and establishing diagnostic model of OMLDT.
