Metabolite Identification
Common NameNAPQI
DescriptionNAPQI, also known as acetimidoquinone or NABQ, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as secondary ketimines. These are ketimines where the nitrogen of the ketimine group is linked to an alkyl or aryl group. A small amount of the drug is metabolized via the cytochrome P-450 pathway (to be specific, CYP3A4 and CYP2E1) into NAPBQI, which is extremely toxic to liver tissue, as well as being a strong biochemical oxidizer. NAPQI is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Within humans, NAPQI participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, NAPQI can be biosynthesized from acetaminophen through its interaction with the enzymes cytochrome P450 2E1, cytochrome P450 1A2, cytochrome P450 2D6, cytochrome P450 3A4, and cytochrome P450 2A6. In addition, NAPQI and glutathione can be converted into acetaminophen cystein; which is catalyzed by the enzymes glutathione S-transferase p and glutathione S-transferase theta-1. Most hospitals stock the antidote (acetylcysteine), which replenishes the liver's supply of glutathione, allowing the NAPQI to be metabolized safely. The minimum dosage at which paracetamol causes toxicity usually is 7.5 to 10g in the average person. In humans, NAPQI is involved in acetaminophen metabolism pathway. Chronic alcoholics may be more susceptible to adverse effects due to reduced glutathione levels. It can be given in large amounts without side-effects.
