N-acetyltransferase 2 Slow Acetylator Genotype Associated with Adverse Effects of Sulfasalazine in the Treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease

AIM: N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is an important enzyme catalyzing N-acetylation of sulfasalazine (SASP). The aim of the present study was to investigate associations of the genotypes of NAT2 with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and with adverse effects of SASP, which is used as the first-line tr...
