Since 1973, a series of toxicological and molecular epidemiological studies on benzene were conducted by researchers at the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine (CAPM) (1973\u20131986) and subsequently by a collaboration between the CAPM and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in the United States that began in 1986, which was joined by investigators from the University of California at Berkeley, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and New York University. The findings demonstrated that the risk of leukemia and lymphoma among benzene\u2010exposed workers was significantly increased, with elevated risks for leukemia present not only at higher exposure but also among workers exposed to under 10 ppm. Therefore, the benzene permissible level was decreased to 1.8 ppm (6 mg\/m<jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>) and benzene\u2010induced leukemia is treated as an occupational cancer in China. The benzene permissible level is 1.0 in the United States and in several other developed countries and it has been suggested to be decreased to 0.5 ppm (ACGIH). A number of potential biomarkers are related to benzene exposure and poisoning. Some of these are benzene oxide\u2013protein adducts, chromosome aberration of lymphocytes, and GPA mutations in erythrocytes, a decrease in B cell and CD4<jats:sup>\u2013<\/jats:sup>T cell counts in peripheral blood, and altered expression of CXCL16, ZNF331, JUN, and PF4 in lymphocytes. Variation in multiple benzene metabolizing genes may be associated with risk of benzene hematotoxicity, including CYP2E1, MPO, NQO1, and GSTT1.<\/jats:bold> <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1196\/annals.1371.035","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,22]],"date-time":"2006-11-22T03:36:57Z","timestamp":1164166617000},"page":"800-809","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Progress of Epidemiological and Molecular Epidemiological Studies on Benzene in China"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"1076","author":[{"given":"GUILAN","family":"LI","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"SONGNIAN","family":"YIN","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_4_2_2","first-page":"192","article-title":"Occupational exposure to benzene in China","volume":"44","author":"Yin S\u2010N.","year":"1987","journal-title":"Br.
