N1,N12-Acetylspermine is a diacetylated derivative of spermine (Item No. 18041), an endogenous polyamine synthesized from spermidine (Item No. 14918), that displays lower Km and higher Vmax values than spermine, making it a better substrate of polyamine oxidase than the non-acetylated polyamine.{29261} Spermine is required for eukaryotic cell growth and protein synthesis and is involved in the modulation of calcium-dependent immune processes.{27553,29231} Upregulation of N1,N12-acetylspermine has been linked to the incidence of cancer, making this natural polyamine a potential biomarker for cancer detection.{28930}
