ALDH2 Repression Promotes Lung Tumor Progression via Accumulated Acetaldehyde and DNA Damage

Abstract excerpt

The major role of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 family (ALDH2) is to detoxify acetaldehyde (ACE) to non-toxic acetic acid. Many evidences suggest that ALDH2 dysfunction contributes to a variety of human diseases including cancer. However, the biological function and molecular mechanism of ALDH2 in tumor progression remain elusive. In this study, we found that ALDH2 repression was associated with poor prognosis in lung...
