Previous Conclusions Regarding 1,4-Dioxane Carcinogenicity (~2010-2013)
- 1,4-DX is readily metabolized at lower doses;
metabolic saturation occurs at higher doses
- Clear evidence that 1,4-DX and metabolites are not
genotoxic
➢ Heath Canada, WHO, and EU: tumors form only after metabolic saturation → non-linear (threshold) mode of action (MOA)
- USEPA 2013: there are data supporting a threshold
MOA, but --
- Incomplete evidence that cytotoxicity/proliferation
precede tumors
- Metabolism not completely characterized
- Lack of evidence of a proliferative response

Differential Gene Expression (ACC data)
Alterations at the transcriptomic level are minimal
