acetone glue inhalation = liver damage?

anyone ever come across this? thinking of occupational, prolonged daily exposure, if not have come across it - know of  a theoretical reason why liver could be damaged by these chemicals? or what sort of damage you would see?
Thanks

I found this article, http://www.healthline.com/health/acetone-poisoning

If your liver can keep up with the amount of acetone you can be ok but there is a tipping point.

Hi I am not a doctor but I would think that there would be an MSDS sheet that would explain the dangers. You already know that everything you we eat breathe and put on the body has to be processed by the liver.  I will try to find something. and come back.
