چکیده

Hydralazine is used in the treatment of essential hypertension and is under investigation for epigenetic therapy in the treatment of neoplastic and renal diseases. N-acetyltransferase (NAT) 2 exhibits a common genetic polymorphism in human populations. After recombinant expression in yeast, human NAT2 exhibited an apparent Lineweaver-Burk constant (K-m) value (20.1 ± 8.8 μM) for hydralazine over 20-fold lower than the apparent K-m value (456 ± 57 μM) for recombinant human NAT1 (P = 0.0016). The apparent Vmax value for recombinant human NAT1 (72.2 ± 17.9 nmol acetylated/min/mg protein) was significantly (P = 0.0245) lower than recombinant human NAT2 (153 ± 15 nmol acetylated/min/mg protein), reflecting 50-fold higher clearance for recombinant human NAT2. Hydralazine NAT activities exhibited a robust acetylator gene dose response in cryopreserved human hepatocytes both in vitro and in situ. Hydralazine NAT activities in vitro differed significantly with respect to NAT2 genotype at 1000 (P = 0.0319), 100 (P = 0.002), and 10 μM hydralazine (P = 0.0029). Hydralazine NAT activities differed significantly (P < 0.001) among slow acetylator hepatocytes, (NAT2*5B/*5B > NAT2*5B/*6A > NAT2*6A/*6A). The in situ hydralazine N-acetylation rates differed significantly with respect to NAT2 genotype after incubation with 10 (P = 0.002) or 100 µM (P = 0.0015) hydralazine and were higher after incubation with 100 μM (10-fold) than with 10 μM (4.5-fold) hydralazine. Our results clearly document NAT2 genotype-dependent N-acetylation of hydralazine in human hepatocytes, suggesting that hydralazine efficacy and safety could be improved by NAT2 genotype-dependent dosing strategies.

Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 genotype-dependent N-acetylation of isoniazid in cryopreserved human hepatocytes

Cryopreserved human hepatocytes were used to investigate the role of arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2; EC 2.3.1.5) polymorphism on the N-acetylation of isoniazid (INH). NAT2 genotype was determined by Taqman allelic discrimination assay and INH N-acetylation was measured by high performance liquid chromatography. INH N-acetylation rates in vitro exhibited a robust and highly significant (P...

Codominant expression of N-acetylation and O-acetylation activities catalyzed by N-acetyltransferase 2 in human hepatocytes.

Human populations exhibit genetic polymorphism in N-acetylation capacity, catalyzed by N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2). We investigated the relationship between NAT2 acetylator genotype and phenotype in cryopreserved human hepatocytes. NAT2 genotypes determined in 256 human samples were assigned as rapid (two rapid alleles), intermediate (one rapid and one slow allele), or slow (two slow alleles) ...

Differential association for N-acetyltransferase 2 genotype and phenotype with bladder cancer risk in Chinese population

BACKGROUND N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is involved in both carcinogen detoxification through hepatic N-acetylation and carcinogen activation through local O-acetylation. NAT2 slow acetylation status is significantly associated with increased bladder cancer risk among European populations, but its association in Asian populations is inconclusive. METHODS NAT2 acetylation status was determined...

Aromatic and heterocyclic amines require metabolic activation to electrophilic intermediates that initiate carcinogenesis. N-Acetyltransferase 1 (NAT1) and 2 (NAT2) are important enzymes in the biotransformation of these carcinogens and exhibit genetic polymorphism. Human NAT1 and NAT2 alleles are listed at: http://www.louisville.edu/medschool/pharmacology/NAT.html by an international gene nome...
