Quinones represent a large and diverse class of antitumor drugs and many quinones are approved for clinical use or are currently undergoing evaluation in clinical trials. For many quinones reduction to the hydroquinone has been shown to play a key role in their antitumor activity. The two-electron reduction of quinones by NQO1 has been shown to be an efficient pathway to hydroquinone formation. NQO1...
NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) participates in the detoxification of many environmental quinones and related compounds. Recent studies have suggested that individuals with a polymorphism in NQO1 (NQO1*2), which results in a decrease (heterozygous, NQO1*1/*2) or a total loss (homozygous, NQO1*2/*2) of NQO1, may be at increased risk for the development of leukemias. Previous studies have failed...
