Polymorphisms of ethanol metabolizing enzyme genes and alcoholism.

Alcohol and alcoholism (Oxford, Oxfordshire). Supplement - 1 Jan 1994

Higuchi S

Abstract excerpt

This study is intended to establish the genotype patterns at the ADH2, ADH3, and ALDH2 loci using a large number of Japanese alcoholics (n = 655) and controls (n = 461) representative of the Japanese general population. It complements an earlier small study and establishes definitively the effect...
