The aim of this study was to determine whether urinary concentrations of the bladder carcinogens acrolein, inorganic arsenic, and 2,6-dimethylaniline (2,6-DMA) reach genotoxic concentrations in pet dogs with and without UC.  \nMethods: We first established thresholds for DNA damage from these chemicals using a novel in vitro organoid model. Healthy canine urinary bladder organoids were exposed to acrolein, sodium arsenite, and 2,6-DMA in vitro and we used the alkaline CometChip assay without and with the enzyme Fpg (formamidopyrimidine [fapy]-DNA glycosylase) to measure DNA strand breaks and oxidative DNA damage. Results: For acrolein, we found a genotoxic threshold of 20 uM for combined DNA strand breaks and oxidative DNA damage. These findings suggest potentially genotoxic urinary acrolein exposures in 20% of pet dogs (15 of 74) previously surveyed, with no differences between cases and controls. For inorganic arsenic, we observed genotoxicity at 20 uM in canine organoids; none of 74 pet dogs reached this urinary concentration when assayed at a single time point. For 2,6-DMA, the genotoxic threshold was 0.01 uM for combined DNA strand breaks and oxidative DNA damage. Among dogs previously surveyed, 8% of UC cases (3 of 37) and none of 36 controls reached this threshold (p = 0.07) . Conclusion: Acrolein and 2,6-DMA could reach genotoxic urinary concentrations after household exposures in some pet dogs, and the role of 2,6-DMA in canine bladder cancer risk deserves assessment in a larger sample size.  \nKEYWORDS  \ncomet assay, DNA damage, bladder cancer, aromatic amines, arsenic, acrolein  \nIntroduction  \nUrothelial carcinoma (UC) is the most common type of bladder cancer in pet dogs, affecting an estimated 20,000 dogs per year ( 1) .
