| Abstract | Nongenotoxic (NGTX) carcinogens induce cancer via othermechanismsthan direct DNA damage. A recognized mode of action for NGTX carcinogensis induction of oxidative stress, a state in which the amount of oxidantsin a cell exceeds its antioxidant capacity, leading to regenerativeproliferation. Currently, carcinogenicity assessment of environmentalchemicals primarily relies on genetic toxicity end points. Since NGTXcarcinogens lack genotoxic potential, these chemicals may remain undetectedin such evaluations. To enhance the predictivity of test strategiesfor carcinogenicity assessment, a shift toward mechanism-based approachesis required. Here, we present an adverse outcome pathway (AOP) networkfor chemically induced oxidative stress leading to (NGTX) carcinogenesis.To develop this AOP network, we first investigated the role of oxidativestress in the various cancer hallmarks. Next, possible mechanismsfor chemical induction of oxidative stress and the biological effectsof oxidative damage to macromolecules were considered. This resultedin an AOP network, of which associated uncertainties were explored.Ultimately, development of AOP networks relevant for carcinogenesisin humans will aid the transition to a mechanism-based, human relevantcarcinogenicity assessment that involves a substantially lower numberof laboratory animals. |
