Chronic actinic dermatitis (CAD) is an uncommon photodermatosis in which patients typically exhibit photosensitivity together with contact allergy. Improvement of the photosensitivity over time is well recognized in a proportion of patients but the concurrent resolution of contact allergy is rare. We report on a 46-year-old female with longstanding CAD who demonstrated resolution of both of these features.

The metabolic conversion of aromatic amines to N-acetylated forms in skin and keratinocytes depends on N-acetyltransferase-1 (NAT1). Common hair color ingredient such as para-phenylenediamine (PPD) causes allergic contact dermatitis. We explored how different electronic substituents on PPD aided NAT1 enzyme biotransform oxidative arylamine (AA) compounds G1-G13 by N-acetylation, NAT-1 activity assays, metabolism, and in vitro clearance investigations in human keratinocytes, while identifying NAT-1 protein levels by Western blot and qRT-PCR.
