OBJECTIVE Glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3β plays an important role in cardiomyopathies. Cardiac-specific metallothionein-overexpressing transgenic (MT-TG) mice were highly resistant to diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy. Therefore, we investigated whether metallothionein cardiac protection against diabetes is mediated by inactivation of GSK-3β. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Diabetes was induced with streptozotocin both MT-TG and wild-type mice. Changes energy metabolism–related molecules, lipid...
Humans exhibit genetic polymorphism in NAT2 resulting rapid, intermediate and slow acetylator phenotypes. Over 65 variants possessing one or more SNPs the 870-bp coding region have been reported. The seven most frequent are rs1801279 (191G>A), rs1041983 (282C>T), rs1801280 (341T>C), rs1799929 (481C>T), rs1799930 (590G>A), rs1208 (803A>G) rs1799931 (857G>A). majority of studies investigate genotype assay for three SNPs: 481C>T, 590G>A 857G>A. A tag-SNP (rs1495741) recently identified a...
N-Acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) catalyses the activation and/or deactivation of a variety aromatic amine drugs and carcinogens. Polymorphisms in N-acetyltransferase gene have been associated with drug-induced toxicities, as well cancer various tissues. Eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified NAT2 coding region, but specific effects each these SNPs on expression protein enzymatic activity are poorly understood. To investigate functional consequences reference NAT2*4 variant...
Human N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is polymorphic in humans and may associate with cancer risk by modifying individual susceptibility to cancers from carcinogen exposure. Since molecular epidemiological studies investigating these associations usually include determining NAT2 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), haplotypes or genotypes, their conclusions can be compromised the uncertainty of genotype–phenotype relationships. We characterized SNPs cloning expressing recombinant allozymes...
