ALDH2 and CYP2E1 genotypes, urinary acetaldehyde excretion and the health consequences in moderate alcohol consumers.

Journal of human genetics - 1 Jan 2006

Abstract excerpt

Deficiencies in mitochondrial low-Km aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) activity, and consequently high blood acetaldehyde levels, have been suggested to relate to various diseases in Japanese, including esophageal cancer. In the present study, 200 men aged 35-59 years randomly selected from an occupational population were analyzed for the association of ALDH2 genotypes and cytochrome P450-2E1 (CYP2E1) genotypes with...
