Levels of acetyl hydrazines and rate of acetylation of isoniazid in adult tuberculosis patients.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Patients suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis were investigated for the levels of isoniazid (INH) and its metabolites viz. acetyl-INH, mono and diacetyl hydrazines and ammonia. It was observed that 50% of the patients are slow inactivators of INH and almost all show an increase in circulating levels of NH3 at 6 hrs. Mono and diacetyl hydrazine levels in blood and urine were detectable in all the patients up+o 24 hrs though the maximum levels were observed at different intervals after the intake of INH.

The aim of this study was to determine the association of n-acetyltransferase-2 polymorphisms and anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity in Iranian pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Acetylating phenotypes was studied in 50 Iranian pulmonary tuberculosis patients using metabolic ratio of plasma acetyl-Isoniazid to Isoniazid. The association between hepatotoxicity and the n-acetyltransferas...

Background and Objective: Drug resistance to tuberculosis is continuously increasing and is a significant threat to tuberculosis control programs because afew effective drugs are present against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Although isoniazid (INH) is the most effective drug against tuberculosis, resistance to this drug also develops readily. Mutations in katG, specially the Ser315Thr substituti...
متن کاملThe Role of N-Acetyl Transferases on Isoniazid Resistance from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Human: An In Silico Approach
BACKGROUND N-acetyl transferase (NAT) inactivates the pro-drug isoniazid (INH) to N-acetyl INH through a process of acetylation, and confers low-level resistance to INH in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). Similar to NAT of MTB, NAT2 in humans performs the same function of acetylation. Rapid acetylators, may not respond to INH treatment efficiently, and could be a potential risk factor, for the...
