Fatty acid ethyl esters are present in human serum after ethanol ingestion.
The aim of the study was to determine whether fatty acid ethyl esters, nonoxidative products of ethanol metabolism selectively present in organs damaged by ethanol abuse, are detectable in the serum after ethanol ingestion. Serum samples of hospital emergency room patients with positive (n = 32) and negative (n = 5) blood ethanol levels were assayed for fatty acid ethyl esters. In a separate st...
متن کاملFatty acid ethyl esters: short-term and long-term serum markers of ethanol intake.
This review includes a description of short-term and long-term markers of ethanol intake and their clinical utility. The major portion of this report is a summary of studies on fatty acid ethyl ester, a new marker for monitoring both acute and chronic ethanol intake. With the markers described in the review, algorithms to assess recent ethanol intake, chronic ethanol intake, and end organ damag...
متن کاملFatty acid ethyl ester synthase, an enzyme for nonoxidative ethanol metabolism, is present in serum after liver and pancreatic injury.
Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE), esterification products of ethanol and fatty acids, have been implicated as mediators of ethanol-induced organ damage. Because cytosolic enzymes such as aspartate aminotransferase, lipase, and amylase appear in the blood after liver or pancreatic damage, we hypothesized that FAEE synthase, which is both cytosolic and membrane bound, is also released into the bloo...
متن کاملFatty acid ethyl esters: toxic non-oxidative metabolites of ethanol and markers of ethanol intake.
This report describes the biochemistry of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE), non-oxidative metabolites of ethanol, and their clinical significance. We review information regarding the enzymes responsible for FAEE synthesis and degradation, and the mechanisms involved with the intracellular and extracellular transport of FAEE and FAEE-mediated cytotoxicity. Also a summary of reports on the emerging...
متن کاملRed blood cell fatty acid ethyl esters: a significant component of fatty acid ethyl esters in the blood.
Although alcohol abuse is known to cause an array of ethanol-induced red blood cell (RBC) abnormalities, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) are toxic, nonoxidative ethanol metabolites that have been found in blood, plasma, and tissues. Because FAEEs have been shown to be incorporated into phospholipid bilayers, we conducted a controlled...
