Alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenase genotypes and drinking behavior in Japanese.

Alcoholism, clinical and experimental research - 1 May 1996

Higuchi S, Matsushita S, Muramatsu T, Murayama M, Hayashida M

Abstract excerpt

The effects of the genotype of alcohol dehydrogenase-2 (ADH2) and mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) on drinking behavior were investigated in a population of 451 Japanese. Although the ALDH2*2 allele had a significant inhibitory effect on alcohol consumption, hence on drinking problems, the apparent association was not confirmed between ADH2 genotype and overall drinking patterns for either males or...
