✦ Synopsis

The inhibition of arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity by ibuprofen was determined in a human colon tumour (adenocarcinoma) cell line. Two assay systems were employed, one with cellular cytosols (9000 g supernatant) and the other with intact colon tumour cell suspensions. The NAT activity in a human colon tumour cell line was inhibited by ibuprofen in a dose-dependent manner in both systems, i.e. the greater the concentration of ibuprofen in the reaction, the greater the inhibition of NAT activities in both systems. The data also indicated that ibuprofen decreases the apparent K m and V max of NAT enzyme from human colon tumour cells in both systems examined. This report is the first demonstration to show that ibuprofen affects human colon tumour cell NAT activity.

In previous studies, N-(N'-acetyl-L-propyl)-N-nitrosoglycine (APNG) has been shown to be a potent mutagen in a variety of genotoxicity assays and a carcinogen in a limited cancer study. APNG decomposes to a carboxymethyldiazonium ion, which can also be generated from potassium diazoacetate (KDA). KD
