The N-acetyltransferase (NAT) gene: an early risk marker for diabetic nephropathy in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients?

Diabetic medicine : a journal of the British Diabetic Association - 1 Oct 1994

Abstract excerpt

A point mutation in the N-acetyltransferase gene (NAT2) leads to the recessive trait for the slow acetylator phenotype, which is suggested to be associated with microalbuminuria in Type 1 diabetic patients. Our study was designed to elucidate whether the NAT2 gene polymorphism would be a marker f...
