Abstract excerpt
Three functional single nucleotide variants (SNVs)‒ALDH2 rs671 (p.E504K), ADH1C rs698 (p.I350V), and ADH1B rs1229984 (p.R48H)‒are key genetic determinants of human alcohol metabolism. These variants significantly affect drinking behavior and are associated with liver disease and increased risks of several malignancies, including esophageal and gastric cancers. We developed a triplex fluorescent probe-based...
