A novel type of N-acetyltransferase, clearly different from the nuclear and cytosolic polyamine N-acetyltransferases of mammals, was recently found in the intestinal nematode Ascaris suum. The occurrence of this putrescine N-acetylating enzyme has also been noted in the filarial parasite

A gas chromatographic method was developed for the determination of monoacetylputrescine, monoacetylcadaverine, N1-acetylspermidine and N8-acetylspermidine in human urine. The amines were isolated from urine by silica gel column chromatography. 1,10-Diaminodecane was used as internal standard. The amines were reacted with
Polyamines are small, highly charged, organic cations of possible regulatory importance in RNA-dependent protein synthesis, the production of which reflects cellular growth and division. The cytokinetics of normal cell populations is circadian rhythmic. This is reflected by a circadian rhythmicity
1,3-Diaminopropane has been identified as the major polyamine of Acanthamoeba culbertsoni. N-acetylputrescine and spermidine were present in appreciable amounts and putrescine as well as N-acetylspermidine were also detected, but spermine was absent. Changes in polyamine levels were observed during the

The mechanism by which chlordecone (CD) amplifies the hepatotoxicity of halomethanes such as CCl4, CHCl3, and BrCCl3 has been a subject of intense study. Recent work has shown that suppression of hepatocellular regeneration leads to accelerated progression of liver injury
