n-hydroxy-4-aminobiphenyl, also known as 4-amino-2-hydroxybiphenyl, is a metabolite of the industrial chemical 4-aminobiphenyl. It is formed in the body through enzymatic oxidation of 4-aminobiphenyl. This compound has been identified as a potential human bladder carcinogen. The formation of n-hydroxy-4-aminobiphenyl is thought to be an important step in the metabolic activation of 4-aminobiphenyl, which leads to its carcinogenic activity. Research on n-hydroxy-4-aminobiphenyl focuses on understanding its role in bladder cancer development and its potential as a biomarker for exposure to 4-aminobiphenyl. This compound is also investigated in relation to other types of cancers, including lung cancer and breast cancer. Studies are conducted to identify possible preventive or therapeutic strategies related to this compound and its impact on human health.'

Research Excerpts

Bioavailability

ExcerptReferenceRelevance
" In addition, in view of the putative role of N-OH-ABP as a major transport form of the carcinogen to the urinary bladder and of the absence of sulfotransferase activity in this tissue, we hypothesize that sulfotransferase activation in the liver may actually decrease the bioavailability of N-OH-ABP toward extrahepatic tissues and thus serve as an important overall detoxification mechanism for the urinary bladder."( Metabolic activation of the N-hydroxy derivative of the carcinogen 4-aminobiphenyl by human tissue sulfotransferases.
