Toxicity Profile
Route of ExposureOral (5) ; inhalation (5) ; dermal (5) ; eye contact (5).
Mechanism of ToxicityThe nitrite in nitrophenols causes the autocatalytic oxidation of oxyhemoglobin to hydrogen peroxide and methemoglobin. This elevation of methemoglobin levels is a condition known as methemoglobinemia, and is characterized by tissue hypoxia, as methemoglobin cannot bind oxygen. (1, 4)
MetabolismNitrophenol may be absorbed following ingestion, inhalation, or dermal exposure. The major metabolic route for nitrophenols is conjugation, with the resultant formation of either glucuronide or sulfate conjugates. Conjugates are more polar than the parent compounds and therefore are easier to excrete in the urine. (5)
Toxicity ValuesLD50: 334 mg/kg (Oral, Rat) (3) LD50: 378 mg/kg (Intraperitoneal, Mouse) (3) LD50: 100 mg/kg (Intravenous, Dog) (3)
Lethal DoseNot Available
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
Uses/Sources2-Nitrophenol is used mainly to make dyes, paint coloring, rubber chemicals, and substances that kill molds. (5)
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
Health EffectsNitrophenols may cause methemoglobinemia. This is a disorder in which there is an abnormally high level of methemoglobin in the blood, resulting in a decrease in the amount of oxygen that can be carried to the tissues and organs. (5, 4)
SymptomsSymptoms of methemoglobinemia include shortness of breath, cyanosis, mental status changes, headache, fatigue, exercise intolerance, dizziness and loss of consciousness. Severe methemoglobinemia may cause dysrhythmias, seizures, coma and death. (4)
TreatmentMethemoglobinemia can be treated with supplemental oxygen and methylene blue 1% solution at 1-2mg/kg administered intravenously slowly over five minutes followed by an IV flush with normal saline. Methylene blue restores the iron in hemoglobin to its normal (reduced) oxygen-carrying state. (4)

10. Estrogen receptor
General Function:
Zinc ion binding
Specific Function:
Nuclear hormone receptor. The steroid hormones and their receptors are involved in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. Ligand-dependent nuclear transactivation involves either direct homodimer binding to a palindromic estrogen response element (ERE) sequence or association with other DNA-binding transcription factors, such as AP-1/c-Jun, c-Fos, ATF-2, Sp1 and Sp3, to mediate ERE-independent signaling. Ligand binding induces a conformational change allowing subsequent or combinatorial association with multiprotein coactivator complexes through LXXLL motifs of their respective components. Mutual transrepression occurs between the estrogen receptor (ER) and NF-kappa-B in a cell-type specific manner. Decreases NF-kappa-B DNA-binding activity and inhibits NF-kappa-B-mediated transcription from the IL6 promoter and displace RELA/p65 and associated coregulators from the promoter. Recruited to the NF-kappa-B response element of the CCL2 and IL8 promoters and can displace CREBBP. Present with NF-kappa-B components RELA/p65 and NFKB1/p50 on ERE sequences. Can also act synergistically with NF-kappa-B to activate transcription involving respective recruitment adjacent response elements; the function involves CREBBP. Can activate the transcriptional activity of TFF1. Also mediates membrane-initiated estrogen signaling involving various kinase cascades. Isoform 3 is involved in activation of NOS3 and endothelial nitric oxide production. Isoforms lacking one or several functional domains are thought to modulate transcriptional activity by competitive ligand or DNA binding and/or heterodimerization with the full length receptor. Essential for MTA1-mediated transcriptional regulation of BRCA1 and BCAS3. Isoform 3 can bind to ERE and inhibit isoform 1.
