Distribution of xenobiotic metabolising enzyme genotypes in different Tunisian populations.

Annals of human biology - 1 Jun 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) and glutathione transferase enzymes play a crucial role in the metabolism of xenobiotics. Genetic polymorphisms affecting these enzymes can modify their activities with an effect on individual susceptibility for different pathologies. These metabolic phenotypes occur with varying prevalence in different populations. AIM: This study sought to analyse the prevalence of...
