Serum metabolomic profile of hair dye use.

ABSTRACT: The International Agency for Research on Cancer reported that some chemicals in hair dyes are probably carcinogenic to those exposed to them occupationally. Biological mechanisms through which hair dye use may be related to human metabolism and cancer risk are not well-established. We conducted the first serum metabolomic examination comparing hair dye users and nonusers in the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention Study. Metabolite assays were conducted using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The association between metabolite levels and hair dye use was estimated using linear regression, adjusting for age, body mass index, smoking, and multiple comparisons. Among the 1,401 detected metabolites, 11 compounds differed significantly between th
