Metabolite Identification
Common Name2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin
Description2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, also known as PCDD 48 or TCDD, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins. These are organic compounds containing a chlorine atom attached to a dibenzo-p-dioxin moiety. In humans, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is involved in the ahr signal transduction pathway. 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is formally rated as a carcinogen (by IARC 1) and is also a potentially toxic compound. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
