Genetic polymorphism of CYP2E1, ADH2, and ALDH2 in Mexican-Americans.

Genetic testing - 1 Jan 1998

Wan Y J, Poland R E, Lin K M

Abstract excerpt

The major enzymes involved in the metabolism of ethanol are alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). Some of the isozymes of ADH are expressed polymorphically. Studies investigating a causal link between ADH expression and alcoholic liver disease (ALD) have so far produced conflicting results. The cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) represents a second enzyme that can metabolize ethanol. Although...
