Abstract Objective Normal circadian rhythms are essential to the repair mechanisms of oxidative stress implicated in skin aging. Given reports that hyaluronic acid (HA) homeostasis exhibits a different profile in chronological skin aging, as compared to environmental or extrinsic aging, an improved understanding of the way HA interacts with its ...

Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) genetic diversity and traditional subsistence: a worldwide population survey. [PDF]
Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is involved in human physiological responses to a variety of xenobiotic compounds, including common therapeutic drugs and exogenous chemicals present in the diet and the environment.

Summary Exposure to particulate matter (PM), a major component of air pollution, is associated with exacerbation of chronic respiratory disease, and infectious diseases such as community‐acquired pneumonia. Although PM can cause adverse health effects through direct damage to host cells, our previous study showed that PM can also impact bacterial ...

NAT2 and CYP2E1 polymorphisms and antituberculosis drug‐induced hepatotoxicity in Peruvian patients
According to our results, the combination of the NAT2 polymorphism associated with the intermediate phenotype and the CYP2E1 C1/C1 genotype associated with the slow phenotype does not affect the therapeutic response and is suspected to be a protective factor against INH‐induced hepatotoxicity in Peruvian tuberculosis patients.

Characterisation of Sulfolobus solfataricus Ard1, a promiscuous N-acetyltransferase [PDF]
Compaction of DNA into chromatin is an important feature of every living cell. This compaction phenomenon is brought about and maintained by a variety of DNA binding proteins, which have evolved to suit the specific needs of the different cell types ...

Structure and Mechanism of Arylamine N-Acetyltransferases
Arylamine N-acetyltransferases (NATs) are a family of phase II drug-metabolising enzymes which are important in the biotransformation of various aromatic and heterocyclic amines and hydroxylamines, arylhydrazines and arylhydrazides. NATs are present in a wide range of eukaryotes and prokaryotes.

Determination of Human NAT2 Acetylator Genotype by Oligonucleotide Ligation Assay
The oligonucleotide ligation assay (OLA) was adapted to the genotyping of the N-arylamine-acetyltransferase (NAT2) gene. This assay allows the use of 96-well microplates and robotic workstations for high sample throughput.

Introduction and objective: Hepatotoxicity during tuberculosis (TB) treatment is frequent and may be related to the Arylamine N-Acetyltransferase (NAT2) acetylator profile, in which allele frequencies differ according to the population.

A novel color change mechanism for breast cancer biomarker detection: naphthoquinones as specific ligands of human arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1. [PDF]
Human arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1 (hNAT1) has become an attractive potential biomarker for estrogen-receptor-positive breast cancers. We describe here the mechanism of action of a selective non-covalent colorimetric biosensor for the recognition of ...
