Vitamin A-aldehyde adducts: AMD risk and targeted therapeutics.
Although currently available treatment options for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are limited, particularly for atrophic AMD, the identification of predisposing genetic variations has informed clinical studies addressing therapeutic options such as complement inhibitors and anti-inflammatory agents. To lower risk of early AMD, recommended lifestyle interventions such as the avoidance of...
متن کاملAldehyde-protein adducts in the liver as a result of ethanol-induced oxidative stress.
A number of systems that generate oxygen free radicals and reactive aldehydic species are activated by excessive ethanol consumption. Recent studies from human alcoholics and from experimental animals have indicated that acetaldehyde and aldehydic products of lipid peroxidation, which are generated in such processes, can bind to proteins forming stable adducts. Adduct formation may lead to seve...
متن کاملAlcohol Dehydrogenase and Aldehyde Dehydrogenase Genotypes and Alcoholism Taiwanese Aborigines among
Previous population association studies have indicated that certain alleles of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) genes may reduce the risk of alcoholism in Oriental populations. In this report we determined the genotypes for three genes, ADH2, ADH3, and ALDH2 among subjects with alcohol dependence (n = 159) and ethnically matched normal controls (n = 149) for the fou...
متن کاملAldehyde dehydrogenase deficiency, flush patterns and prevalence of alcoholism: an interethnic comparison.
A study was performed to verify that the prevalence of alcohol abuse and dependence in Formosan aborigines differs from that of Taiwanese (Chinese Han people), using analysis of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) isozymes and flush patterns on randomly sampled 70 Atayal, 66 Paiwan, 61 Yami and 94 Taiwanese subjects were studied. The activity of an isomer of ALDH having a low Km (ALDH-I) in hair root...
متن کاملProtein adducts of aldehydic lipid peroxidation products identification and characterization of protein adducts using an aldehyde/keto-reactive probe in combination with mass spectrometry.
This chapter describes a mass spectrometry-based strategy that facilitates the unambiguous identification and characterization of proteins modified by lipid peroxidation-derived 2-alkenals. The approach employs a biotinylated hydroxyl amine derivative as an aldehyde/keto-reactive probe in conjunction with selective enrichment and tandem mass spectrometric analysis. Methodological details are gi...
