DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of pre- and postnatal exposure to the organophosphorus (OP) pesticide chlorpyrifos (CPF) on neurobehavioral functioning in a cohort of inner-city children who have reached 9 years of age. This work builds on, and shares a cohort with, a prospective cohort study of ambient air pollutant effects on child development and respiratory health, being conducted by the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health (NIEHS R01 ES08977, P.I. Perera:11/01/03-10/31/08; 5 P01 ES09600/EPA RD-83214101, P.I. Perera, Co-I Rauh:11/01/03-10/31/08). Previous findings from the Children's Center study reveal adverse effects of prenatal exposure to CPF (validated with biomarkers in cord blood) on birth weight (Whyatt et al., 2004), cognitive and motor development, and neuro-behavioral problems at 3 years (Rauh et al., 2006). Affected neurobehavioral areas include attention and ADHD-- conditions with serious long-term clinical implications. Based on these findings, and evidence from the experimental literature showing long-term, possibly irreversible effects of CPF exposure on brain development and sensorimotor activity (Dam et al, 2000; Levin et al, 2002; Slotkin et al, 2005), we now propose to evaluate the longer-term neurodevelopmental effects of CPF in 300 9-year-old children. We will use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to define the intermediary neurobiological effects of CPF exposure on the structure, metabolism, and anatomical connectivity of the brain in all 300 children. CPF was selected as a model for translational research because it is representative of the class of OP pesticides, well characterized, and well-studied in animals. Furthermore, agricultural and commercial uses continue, despite the 2001 residential ban by EPA. Specifically, we propose to: (1) assess the 9- year effects of prenatal and early childhood exposures to CPF on neurobehavioral (inattention, hyperactivity and depression) and neuropsychological functioning (attentional capacity, memory, impulse control and sensory motor functioning); and (2) assess the 9-year effects of prenatal and early childhood exposures to CPF on measures of brain structure (using anatomical MRI), brain chemistry/cellular metabolism (using magnetic resonance spectroscopy), and anatomical connectivity (using diffusion tensor imaging) in the same children. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This application is for a 5-year study to assess the effects of exposure to the organophosphorus pesticides, chlorpyrifos and diazinon, on neurobehavioral functioning in a cohort of inner-city children (n=400) who have reached 8-9 years of age. This work shares a cohort with a longitudinal study of ambient air pollutant effects on child development, from the prenatal period to 9 years of age, being conducted by the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health. The project has access to biomarkers of exposure, includes neuroimaging assessments on a subset of 60 children, and has potential for further informing regulatory safety standards for OP use in the United States.

描述（由申请人提供）：本研究的目的是评估出生前和产后接触有机磷 (OP) 农药毒死蜱 (CPF) 对一组 9 岁内城区儿童神经行为功能的影响。这项工作以哥伦比亚儿童环境健康中心进行的一项关于环境空气污染物对儿童发育和呼吸健康影响的前瞻性队列研究为基础，并与之共享队列研究（NIEHS R01 ES08977，P.I. Perera：11/01/03-10/31/08；5 P01 ES09600/EPA RD-83214101，P.I. 佩雷拉 (Perera)，劳赫 (Co-I Rauh)：11/01/03-10/31/08）。儿童中心先前的研究结果显示，产前接触 CPF（通过脐带血中的生物标志物进行验证）对出生体重（Whyatt 等人，2004 年）、认知和运动发育以及 3 岁时神经行为问题（Rauh 等人，2006 年）产生不利影响。受影响的神经行为领域包括注意力和多动症——具有严重长期临床影响的疾病。基于这些发现，以及来自实验文献的证据表明 CPF 暴露对大脑发育和感觉运动活动具有长期的、可能不可逆转的影响（Dam 等，2000；Levin 等，2002；Slotkin 等，2005），我们现在建议评估 CPF 对 300 名 9 岁儿童的长期神经发育影响。我们将使用磁共振成像 (MRI) 来确定 CPF 暴露对所有 300 名儿童大脑结构、新陈代谢和解剖连接的中间神经生物学影响。 CPF 被选为转化研究的模型，因为它是 OP 农药类别的代表，具有良好的特性，并且在动物身上进行了充分的研究。此外，尽管 EPA 于 2001 年颁布了住宅禁令，但农业和商业用途仍在继续。具体来说，我们建议：（1）评估产前和儿童早期接触 CPF 对神经行为（注意力不集中、多动和抑郁）和神经心理功能（注意力能力、记忆力、冲动控制和感觉运动功能）的影响； (2) 评估产前和儿童早期接触 CPF 对同一儿童的大脑结构（使用解剖 MRI）、脑化学/细胞代谢（使用磁共振波谱）和解剖连通性（使用扩散张量成像）测量的 9 年影响。公共健康相关性：本申请适用于一项为期 5 年的研究，旨在评估接触有机磷农药、毒死蜱和二嗪磷对一组 8-9 岁内城儿童 (n=400) 神经行为功能的影响。这项工作与哥伦比亚儿童环境健康中心正在进行的一项关于环境空气污染物对从产前到 9 岁的儿童发育影响的纵向研究共享一个队列。该项目可以获得暴露的生物标志物，包括对 60 名儿童的神经影像学评估，并有可能进一步为美国 OP 使用的监管安全标准提供信息。
