Abstract
The halogenated solvent trichloroethylene (TCE) has had many uses in medicine, construction, consumer products, and the military. Many of these uses have been discontinued or restricted due to its toxicity, which affects multiple target organs and includes both acute, high-dose toxicity and chronic, low-dose toxicity that also encompass several cancers. US and international agencies have conducted risk and hazard assessments for TCE, with comprehensive publications coming out in the last 10-15 years. Accordingly, the focus of this article is to review recently published data since that time (i.e., 2014) that clarify unsettled questions or provide additional insights into the metabolism and mechanisms of toxicity of TCE in several target organs. Besides metabolism, the review focuses on the kidneys, liver, immune system, nervous system, cardiovascular and pulmonary systems, the search for biomarkers, and recent analyses of human cancer risk and incidence from TCE exposure.
期刊介绍：
Since 1961, the Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology has been a comprehensive resource covering significant developments in pharmacology and toxicology. The journal encompasses various aspects, including receptors, transporters, enzymes, chemical agents, drug development science, and systems like the immune, nervous, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, endocrine, and pulmonary systems. Special topics are also featured in this annual review.
