Maintenance of genome integrity requires the functional interplay between Fanconi anemia (FA) and homologous recombination (HR) repair pathways. Endogenous acetaldehyde, a product of cellular metabolism, is a potent source of DNA damage, particularly toxic to cells and mice lacking the FA protein FANCD2. Here, we investigate whether HR-compromised cells are sensitive to acetaldehyde, similarly ...
Acetaldehyde, the first metabolite of ethanol, is active in the central nervous system, where it exerts motivational properties. Acetaldehyde is able to induce drinking behaviour in operant-conflict paradigms that resemble the core features of the addictive phenotype: drug-intake acquisition and maintenance, drug-seeking, relapse and drug use despite negative consequences. Since acetaldehyde di...
BACKGROUND An increasing body of evidence now implicates acetaldehyde as a major underlying factor for the carcinogenicity of alcoholic beverages and especially for oesophageal and oral cancer. Acetaldehyde associated with alcohol consumption is regarded as 'carcinogenic to humans' (IARC Group 1), with sufficient evidence available for the oesophagus, head and neck as sites of carcinogenicity. ...
Where is acetaldehyde derived from? Acetaldehyde in human body is derived from three principal sources: 1) by in vivo synthesis in the liver, where it is rapidly metabolized into acetic acid and water; 2) acetaldehyde also exists in the saliva, derived from cigarette smoke or produced by the microbial flora of the oral cavity and pharynx (also in non-smokers); 3) the third important source of a...
Polyclonal antibodies able to recognize protein-acetaldehyde conjugates were produced and characterized. The antibodies react with sodium cyanoborohydride-reduced Schiff's bases between acetaldehyde and a protein, independently of the nature of the macromolecule binding the acetaldehyde moiety. Only conjugates between acetaldehyde or propionaldehyde and a protein are recognized; conjugates obta...
The process of acetaldehyde formation by the yogurt bacterium Streptococcus thermophilus is described in this paper. Attention was focused on one specific reaction for acetaldehyde formation catalyzed by serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT), encoded by the glyA gene. In S. thermophilus, SHMT also possesses threonine aldolase (TA) activity, the interconversion of threonine into glycine and ace...
Acetaldehyde, the major ethanol metabolite that is far more toxic and reactive than ethanol, has been postulated to be responsible for alcohol-induced tissue and cell injury. This study was to examine whether facilitated acetaldehyde metabolism affects acetaldehyde-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis. Transgene-encoding human aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2), which converts acetaldehyde into...
Chronic ethanol ingestion leads to an enhanced risk of upper gastrointestinal tract cancer. Although many hypotheses for the tumor promoting effect of alcohol exist, the pathogenetic mechanisms remain unclear since alcohol in itself is not carcinogenic. Acetaldehyde, the first metabolite of ethanol, has been shown to have multiple mutagenic effects and to be carcinogenic to animals. Previous re...
Acetaldehyde, the first metabolite of ethanol, mediates many of the biological effects of ethanol. We have previously shown that acetaldehyde, but not ethanol, stimulates collagen production in cultured human fibroblasts (Holt, K., Bennett, M., and Chojkier, M. (1984) Hepatology 4, 843-848). Here, we examined the effects of acetaldehyde on collagen gene expression. Confluent human fetal fibrobl...
Acetaldehyde reacts with hemoglobin in vitro to produce acetaldehyde-hemoglobin adducts, but we could not detect these in the blood of 20 alcoholics, either by cation-exchange chromatography or agar gel electrophoresis. Thus, contrary to previous reports, this test is not a reliable marker of alcohol abuse. Nuclear magnetic resonance and gas chromatographic-mass spectroscopic analysis of acetal...
