Identification
Common Name1,1-Dichloroethane
ClassSmall Molecule
Description1,1-Dichloroethane is a colorless, oily, man-made liquid. It evaporates quickly at room temperature and has an odor like ether. 1,1-Dichloroethane burns easily. When 1,1-dichloroethane is released to the environment, it usually exists as a vapor rather than a liquid. It is used primarily to make 1,1,1-trichloroethane and a number of other chemicals. It is also used to dissolve other substances such as paint, varnish and finish removers, and to remove grease. 1,1-Dichloroethane was used as a surgical anesthetic, but is no longer. (7)

Toxicity Profile
Route of Exposure Inhalation (8) ; oral (8) ; dermal (8) ; eye contact (8)
Mechanism of ToxicityThe limited information available about 1,1-dichloroethane suggests that it may be nephrotoxic, fetotoxic, and possibly carcinogenic. 1,1-Dichloroethane has been observed to enhance cell transformation and results suggest that 1,1-dichloroethane or a metabolite can bind to cellular macromolecules such as DNA. It had been reported that 1,1-dichloroethane binds to nucleic acids and proteins in vivo and in vitro. This binding is also mediated by the liver cytochrome-P-450 system. Phenobarbital enhances the extent of covalent macromolecular binding. Hence, metabolites of 1,1-dichloroethane bind to the DNA, RNA, and tissue proteins. (7)
MetabolismAfter absorption, 1,1-dichloroethane is distributed to the liver, kidney, lung, and stomach. In general, the identification of specific metabolites and the monitoring of enzyme activities indicate that the biotransformation of 1,1-dichloroethane is mediated by hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450 system. Metabolism of 1,1-dichloroethane by hepatic microsomes results in the production of acetic acid as the major metabolite and 2,2-dichloroethanol, mono-, and dichloroacetic acid as minor metabolites. The initial steps in the metabolism of 1,1-dichloroethane were proposed to involve cytochrome P-450-dependent hydroxylations at either carbon. Hydroxylation at C-l would result in the production of an unstable alpha-haloalcohol, which can lose HCl to yield acetyl chloride. An alternative, but less favorable reaction, would be a chlorine shift to yield chloroacetyl chloride. These acyl chlorides can react with water to generate free acids or react with cellular constituents. Hydroxylation at C-2 would produce 2,2-dichloroethanol, which would undergo subsequent oxidation to dichloroacetaldehyde and dichloroacetic acid. 1,1-dichloroethane metabolites are excreted in urine and breathed out air. (7)
Toxicity ValuesLD50: 750 mg/kg (Oral, Rat) (4) LD50: 14.1 g/kg (Oral, Rat) (5)
Lethal DoseNot Available
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)No indication of carcinogenicity (not listed by IARC). (6)
Uses/Sources1,1-Dichloroethane is used primarily to make 1,1,1-trichloroethane and a number of other chemicals. It is also used to dissolve other substances such as paint, varnish and finish removers, and to remove grease. Exposure may results from breathing air containing vapors of 1,1-dichloroethane, drinking contaminated water, and through eye and skin contact. (7)
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
Health Effects1,1-dichloroethane can cause kidney disease after long-term, high-level exposure in the air. It is also known to cause liver damage, as well as central nervous system depression. 1,1-Dichloroethane can cause dermatitis on prolonged dermal exposure. (7, 3)
SymptomsBurning sensation, cough, drowsiness, headache, nausea, dullness, salivation, sneezing, and vomiting can follow inhnalation or ingestion of 1,1-dichloroethane. Eye exposure can lead to redness and pain of the contact surface. Dermal exposure can lead to roughness and dry skin. has very little effect on the skin. Especially, persons with existing skin disorders may be more susceptible to the effects of this agent. (8, 2)
TreatmentFollowing oral exposure, immediately dilute with 4 to 8 ounces (120 to 240 mL) of water or milk and administer charcoal as a slurry (240 mL water/30 g charcoal). Consider insertion of a small, flexible nasogastric or orogastric tube to suction gastric contents after recent large ingestions (the risk of further mucosal injury must be weighed against potential benefits). Following inhalation exposure, Move patient to fresh air. Monitor for respiratory distress. If cough or difficulty breathing develops, evaluate for respiratory tract irritation, bronchitis, or pneumonitis. After eye exposure, irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of room temperature water for at least 15 minutes. If the exposure occurs through dermal contact, remove contaminated clothing and wash exposed area thoroughly with soap and water. In any case, a physician may need to examine the area if irritation or pain persists. (1)

Targets

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.

General Function:
Zinc ion binding
Specific Function:
Nuclear hormone receptor. Binds estrogens with an affinity similar to that of ESR1, and activates expression of reporter genes containing estrogen response elements (ERE) in an estrogen-dependent manner (PubMed:20074560). Isoform beta-cx lacks ligand binding ability and has no or only very low ere binding activity resulting in the loss of ligand-dependent transactivation ability. DNA-binding by ESR1 and ESR2 is rapidly lost at 37 degrees Celsius in the absence of ligand while in the presence of 17 beta-estradiol and 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen loss in DNA-binding at elevated temperature is more gradual.

GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain, mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the GABA/benzodiazepine receptor and opening an integral chloride channel. In the uterus, the function of the receptor appears to be related to tissue contractility. The binding of this pI subunit with other GABA(A) receptor subunits alters the sensitivity of recombinant receptors to modulatory agents such as pregnanolone.
