2.3.1.57 Homo sapiens treatment of some human cancer cells, such as NCI H157 human lung carcinoma cells, with polyamine analogues N1,N12-bis(ethyl)spermine or N1,N11-bis-(ethyl)norspermine leads to a very high induction of SSAT. SSAT activity is induced via a variety of other stimuli, including toxins, hormones, cytokines, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents, natural products, and stress pathways, and by ischemia-reperfusion injury. Effects of increased SSAT activity include death of pancreatic cells, blockage of regenerative tissue growth, behavioral changes, keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, and hair loss. Polyamine analogs such as BE-3-3-3 or BE-3-4-3 cause a huge increase in Sat1 gene expression in certain tumor cells up

2.3.1.57 physiological function SSAT regulates cellular polyamine content and links polyamine metabolism to lipid and carbohydrate metabolism by means of alterations in the content of acetyl-CoA and ATP. Since polyamines play critical roles in normal and neoplastic growth and in ion channel regulation, SSAT is a key enzyme in these processes. A high level of SSAT stimulates flux through the polyamine biosynthetic pathway Mus musculus
