N-Acetylputrescine
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
N-Acetylputrescine is a polyamine metabolite that regulates cell proliferation and signal transduction mainly by participating in polyamine acetylation modification. N-Acetylputrescine may reduce the positive charge of polyamines, affect protein-nucleic acid interactions, and promote cell growth. The concentration changes of N-Acetylputrescine can help disease diagnosis (such as early screening and efficacy evaluation of lung cancer) and microbial cell wall structure research. N-Acetylputrescine can be used as a potential biomarker for the progression of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung (SCCL) and Parkinson's disease (PD).

Biological Activity
N-Acetylputrescine is identified as a characteristic component in the peptidoglycan of the cyanobacteria Glaucocystis nostochinearum and Cyanoptyche gloeocystis, and participates in the composition of the cell wall structure by modifying D-glutamic acid residues[1].
N-Acetylputrescine (radiolabeled; 72 h) is synthesized from putrescine in human lymphocyte culture and can be released into the culture medium. Its production is related to the cell proliferation state and may be involved in the regulation of polyamine metabolism[2].
