Although formaldehyde is a normal constituent of tissues, lifetime inhalation exposures at 6 h/day, 5 days/week at concentrations ≥6 ppm caused a nonlinear increase in nasal tumors in rats with incidence reaching close to 50% at 15 ppm. Studies with heavy isotope labeled [13CD2]-formaldehyde permit quantification of both the mass-labeled exogenous and endogenous DNA-formaldehyde reaction products. An existing pharmacokinetic model developed initially to describe 14C-DNA-protein crosslinks (DPX) provided a template for describing the time course of mass-labeled adducts. Published datasets included both DPX and N2-HO13CD2-dG adducts measured after a single 6-h exposure to 0.7, 2, 6, 9, 10, or 15 ppm formaldehyde, after multi-day exposures to 2 ppm for 6 h/day, 7 days/week with interim sacrifices up to 28 days, and after 28-day exposures for 6 h/day, 7 days/week to 0.3, 0.03, or 0.001 ppm. The existing kinetic model overpredicted endogenous adducts in the nasal epithelium after 1-day [13CD2]-formaldehyde exposure, requiring adjustment of parameters for rates of tissue metabolism and background formaldehyde. After refining tissue formaldehyde parameters, we fit the model to both forms of adducts by varying key parameters and optimizing against all 3 studies. Fitting to all these studies required 2 nonlinear pathways—one for high-exposure saturation of clearance in the nasal epithelial tissues and another for extracellular clearance that restricts uptake into the epithelial tissue for inhaled concentrations below 0.7 ppm. This refined pharmacokinetic model for endogenous and exogenous formaldehyde acetal adducts can assist in updating biologically based dose-response models for formaldehyde carcinogenicity.
