NAT2 rapid acetylators exert lower post-meal urinary mutagenicity than slow ones (1.41+/-1.02 vs 1.77+/-2.45 7-h MMDs/intake) and even more if the latter are extensive CYP1A2 metabolizers (1.41+/-1.02 vs 2.18+/-1.33 7-h MMDs/intake), but the difference did not reach statistical significance. In conclusion, this study indicates that CYP1A2 and NAT2 activities influence the presence of urinary mutagens after a meal of pan-fried hamburger (rich in HHAs) and consequently their potential genotoxic risk.

Abstract
In this work the phenotyping approach was used to study the influence of metabolic polymorphisms NAT2 and CYP1A2 on S9-mediated urinary mutagenicity, detected with Salmonella strain YG1024, in 50 subjects after a meal of pan-fried hamburgers. All 50 post-meal samples, but not pre-meal ones, were clearly mutagenic (number of urine samples able to double number of spontaneous revertants was 50 to 0, respectively). CYP1A2 positively influences urinary mutagenicity: a rise in CYP1A2 activity increases levels of post-meal urinary mutagens (1.16+/-0.91 vs 1.72+/-1.19 7-h minimum mutagenic doses (MMDs)/intake), especially in NAT2 slow acetylators (2.18+/-1.33 vs 0.90+/-0.54 7-h MMDs/intake, Mann-Whitney U-test, P<0.05). NAT2 rapid acetylators exert lower post-meal urinary mutagenicity than slow ones (1.41+/-1.02 vs 1.77+/-2.45 7-h MMDs/intake) and even more if the latter are extensive CYP1A2 metabolizers (1.41+/-1.02 vs 2.18+/-1.33 7-h MMDs/intake), but the difference did not reach statistical significance. In conclusion, this study indicates that CYP1A2 and NAT2 activities influence the presence of urinary mutagens after a meal of pan-fried hamburger (rich in HHAs) and consequently their potential genotoxic risk.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
