| Abstract | Polymorphisms that alter the function of genes involved in the activation or detoxification of carcinogenic compounds can influence an individuals risk of developing cancer. Polymorphic changes modulating the acetylation capacity of the N-acetyltransferase (NAT) genes have been implicated in the risk of developing cancer. In this study the role of genetically determined individual NAT1 and NAT2 genotypes, haplotypes and haplotype combinations in the predisposition to head and neck cancer was investigated. Polymorphic regions of the NAT1 and NAT2 genes were analyzed in patients with head and neck cancer and healthy individuals by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Distribution of the genotypes, allele frequencies, diplotypes and haplotypes and correlation with clinical characteristics were evaluated. No association was observed between the NAT1*3, NAT1*10, NAT1*11, NAT2*5 and NAT2*6 genotypes and risk of head and neck cancer. The NAT2*7 slow genotype was associated with reduced risk of disease. A significant association was observed between the fast acetylator NAT2*4/NAT1*10 diplotype and risk of head and neck cancer. Combined haplotypes harboring the T1088A and C1095A variants characterizing the NAT1*10 allele were associated with increased risk. Our results suggest that NAT1 and NAT2 gene combinations may influence the risk of developing head and neck cancer. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
