Human Arylamine N-Acetyltransferase 1 (NAT1) Knockout in MDA-MB-231 Breast Cancer Cell Lines Leads to Transcription of NAT2 [PDF]
Many cancers, including breast cancer, have shown differential expression of human arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1 (NAT1). The exact effect this differential expression has on disease risk and progression remains unclear.

Association of the cytochrome P450 and arylamine N-acetyltransferase gene polymorphisms with the incidence of head and neck cancer in Polish population [PDF]
Objectives Head and neck cancer (HNC) is one of the most common cancers. Most exogenous HNC is head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. Scientists are striving to develop diagnostic tests that will allow the prognosis of HNC.

Non-coding and intergenic genetic variants of human arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) gene are associated with differential plasma lipid and cholesterol levels and cardiometabolic disorders [PDF]
Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is a phase II metabolic enzyme, best known for metabolism of aromatic amines and hydrazines. Genetic variants occurring in the NAT2 coding region have been well-defined and are known to affect the enzyme activity or

Effect arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1 on morphology, adhesion, migration, and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells: role of matrix metalloproteinases and integrin αV [PDF]
Reducted arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT1) in breast cancers is associated with poor patient survival. NAT1 has also been associated with changes in cancer cell survival and invasion both in vitro and in vivo.

Expression of arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 activity in immortalized human bronchial epithelial cells. [PDF]
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States with high incidence in tobacco smokers. Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is a xenobiotic enzyme that catalyzes both N- and O-acetylation of carcinogens present in tobacco smoke ...

From arylamine N-acetyltransferase to folate-dependent acetyl CoA hydrolase: impact of folic acid on the activity of (HUMAN)NAT1 and its homologue (MOUSE)NAT2. [PDF]
Acetyl Coenzyme A-dependent N-, O- and N,O-acetylation of aromatic amines and hydrazines by arylamine N-acetyltransferases is well characterised. Here, we describe experiments demonstrating that human arylamine N-acetyltransferase Type 1 and its murine ...

Pharmacogenetics of the arylamine N-acetyltransferases [PDF]
The arylamine N-acetyltransferases (NATs) are involved in the metabolism of a variety of different compounds that we are exposed to on a daily basis. Many drugs and chemicals found in the environment, such as those in cigarette smoke, car exhaust fumes and in foodstuffs, can be either detoxified by NATs and eliminated from the body or bioactivated to ...

Human N-Acetyltransferase 1 and 2 Differ in Affinity Towards Acetyl-Coenzyme A Cofactor and N-Hydroxy-Arylamine Carcinogens [PDF]
Arylamine N-acetyltransferases catalyze the transfer of acetyl groups from the endogenous cofactor acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) to arylamine (N-acetylation) and N-hydroxy-arylamine (O-acetylation) acceptors.
