초록

Arylamines are suspected to be the primary causative agent of urothelial cancer in tobacco smoke. In the human liver, arylamines are N-hydroxylated by a cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2-catalyzed reaction, which produces a substrate for O-esterification that can be catalyzed by N-acetylatransferases (NAT) or sulfotransferases (SULT).
