사람의 미토콘드리아에 있는 aldehyde dehydrogenase(ALDH2)는 체내에서 알코올 대사 과정 중에 생성되는 아세트알데히드를 산화시키는 주된 역할을 담당하고 있다. 이 ALDH2가 알코올 대사에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위하여 가용화된 효소가 필요하다. 알려져 있는 유전자의 염기서열 데이터를 바탕으로 ALDH2의 cDNA는 cDNA 라이브러리에서 선별하였으며, 이를 여러 가지 대장균 발현벡터에 연결하였다. 제조한 발현벡터를 형질전환시킨 대장균을 사용하여 단백질의 발현을 확인한 결과 대부분의 계에서 ALDH가 과발현되고 있었다. 그러나 발현된 단백질의 대부분은 inclusion body로 형성되어, 실제로 가용화된 효소의 양은 전체 발현된 양의 5% 이하 였고 이들 몇 가지 발현 system으로 재조합 미오2DML 발현을 확인하였다.

The system most likely responsible for the accelerated metabolism of alcohol with chronic ingestion or at high blood ethanol levels, is the microsomal ethanol-oxidizing system(M EOS). While the increase in the MEOS with chronic ethanol ingestion is thought to be adaptive, it may also have serious adverse effects on the liver. The rates of the NADPH-dependent oxygen consumption by the liver microsomes from the prolonged ethanol fed rats were 2 times higher than the rates from the non-treated rats. With the alcohol ingestion, the total SH and nonprotein SH contents showed the significant decrease and at the same time, MDA in liver and GOT and GPT levels in blood showed the significant increase, which suggests the occurrence of liver damage due to the oxidative stress caused by chronic alcohol consumption. The mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase(ALDH) activity was decreased by chronic ethanol ingestion, whereas the alcohol dehydrogenase activity and the cytosolic ALDH activity were not altered. These results suggest that the induction of cytochrome P450 by the chronic alcohol ingestion increases the oxidative stress which seems to result in the altered the physiological states of the liver including the ALDH activity, which may in turn to lead to the liver disease.

Objectives:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pathophysiology of alcoholics by investigating the differences in frequency of Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 2(ALDH2) genotypes and ALDH2 alleles between patients with alcohol dependence and controls, and the differences of drinking and personality traits in Korean male alcoholics with ALDH2 genotype variances. Methods:The authors selected 98 patients with alcohol dependence and 53 controls. Self-report questionnaires for acute reponses after alcohol ingestion, the AUI(Alcohol Use Inventory), and the NEO-PI-R(NEO Personality Inventory Revised) were given to all patients with alcohol dependence. ALDH2 genotypes were typed with MboII RFLP(Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) method in 53 controls and 98 patients with alcohol dependence. The authors divided alcoholic patients into two groups according to the presence of variant $ALDH2^2$ allele;normal ALDH2 alcoholics(N=87) and variant ALDH2 alcoholics(N=11). Results:1) The genotypic frequencies of subjects with $ALDH2^{1/1}$ were higher and those with $ALDH2^{1/2}$ and $ALDH2^{2/2}$ were lower in patients than in controls. 2) Alcohol dependence could be found in $ALDH2^{2/2}$ homozygote individuals. 3) Variant ALDH2 alcoholics had more family problems in the AUI than normal ALDH2 alcoholics. 4) Variant ALDH2 alcoholics experienced more flushing and cardiovascular responses after alcohol ingestion than normal ALDH2 alcoholics. 5) Variant ALDH2 alcoholics had less altruistic personality traits in the NEO-PI-R than normal ALDH2 alcoholics. 6) Variant ALDH2 alcoholics tended to have more tolerance to alcohol than normal ALDH2 alcoholics. Conclusion:Variant $ALDH2^2$ allele might play a protective role in the pathogenesis of alcohol dependence and there were several significant differences of drinking and personality traits in Korean male alcoholics with ALDH2 genotype variances.

Lycii fructus has been traditionally used as a preventive and therapeutic medicine to treat enervation and diverse chronic diseases. In this study, we investigated whether fermentation of Lycii fructus extract (LE) increases the enzymatic activity of the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). The fermentation of LE by Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae IFO 2376 was shown to increase the enzymatic activity of ADH and ALDH. TLC analysis of LE and fermented LE (FLE) showed that ADH and ALDH activities increased in different spots. Fraction No. 66 of LE and fraction No. 68 of FLE by Silica gel chromatography showed increased ADH activity of 129.1% and 148.9%, respectively. Fractions No. 128 of LE and FLE by Silica gel chromatography showed increased ALDH activity of 134.1% and 148.1%, respectively. The fraction No. 68 of FLE obtained by HPLC showed new peaks at $R_t$ 11.938min, $R_t$ 22.072min and $R_t$ 28.842min, indicating that ADH activity was increased. The LE and FLE fractions with the greatest increases in ADH activity peaked at the same time ($R_t$ 13min),whereas the LE and FLE fractions with the greatest increases in ALDH activity peaked at different times ($R_t$ 16.307min and $R_t$ 36.640min, respectively).

Aldehyde and active form of free oxygen produced in alcohol metabolism in liver are the cause of liver cell damage. The main system of alcohol metabolism is composed of alcohol dehydrogenase(ADH), aldehyde dehydrogenase(ALDH) and cytochrome P4502E1. Alcohol dehydrogenase is reversible in alcohol metabolism. To block the backward reaction and enhance alcohol oxidation, acetaldehyde trapping agents were assayed. The assay was carried out by measuring decreasing NADH at 340nm, using acetaldcehyde and NADH as substrate and coenzyme respectively. (omitted)

Objectives: Alcohol intake has been reported to be a risk factor of laryngeal cancer. Since the aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) genotype is a major determinant of personal alcohol drinking habit, there is a possibility that ALDH2 genotype would be a risk factor for laryngeal cancer. N-Acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is a detoxifying enzyme and its polymorphism has been reported to be related to the risk of many environmental cancers. However, studies on the associations between these two genotypes and laryngeal cancer risk are scarce. We have assessed the effects of alcohol intake and the genotype of ALDH2 and NAT2 on the risk of laryngeal cancer in Koreans. Materials and Methods: Eighty-four pathologically proven laryngeal cancer patients and 168 age matched controls were included as the study subjects. Information about alcohol intake and smoking habit was collected using a self administered questionnaire. ALDH2 and NAT2 genotypes were analyzed using PCR-RFLP methods. Results: Alcohol intake was significant as a risk factor for laryngeal cancer (OR : 2.58, 95% CI : 1.24, 5.36), especially for supraglottic laryngeal cancer (OR : 3.24, 95% CI : 1.02, 10.31). Personal drinking habit was closely related with personal smoking habit, which was a potent risk factor of laryngeal cancer. In a stratified analysis according to the level of cumulative smoking amount, drinking was significant neither in light smokers (equal or less than 30 pack-years) nor in heavy smoker (over 30 pack-years). The ALDH2 genotype was significantly associated with the risk of laryngeal cancer in a univariate analysis. The statistical significance, however, disappeared after adjusting alcohol intake using a multiple conditional logistic model. The NAT2 genotype was not significant as a risk factor for laryngeal cancer. Conclusion: Alcohol drinking and ALDH2 genotype would have indirect effects on laryngeal cancer by their correlations with cigarette smoking or with alcohol drinking. It is less likely that the NAT2 genotype would be a potent risk factor of laryngeal cancer.

Alcohol metabolizing activity of fermented sea tangle juice (FSYJ) using Lactobacillilus brevis BJ20 were evaluated by measuring relative alcohol dehydrogenease (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activities. According to the results of MTI assay. the fermented sea tangle juice by Lactobacillilus brevis BJ20 appeared safe in the cytotocxity. The relative ADH activity of FSTJ showed 124% at 10 mg/mL, which increased with increasing concentration. The relative ALDH activity showed, however, insignificant difference (P>0.05) between concentrations of FSTJ up to 50 mg/mL. These results suggested that fermented sea tangle juice by L. brevis BJ20 could be used as a potential material for metabolizing alcohol.

과다한 음주는 알츠하이머 및 파킨슨 질병과 같은 각종 만성 퇴행성 뇌질환의 대표적인 원인 중 하나로 알려져 있다. 체내에 유입된 에탄올은 알코올 탈수소효소(alcohol dehydrogenase, ADH)에 의해 아세트알데히드로 대사된 후 다시 알데히드탈수소효소 2(aldehyde dehydrogenase 2, ALDH2)에 의해 아세트산으로 대사되어 배출된다. 에탄올의 대사과정 중에는 다량의 free radical이 생성되어 체내에서 산화적 스트레스를 유발하는 것으로 알려져 있고, 아세트알데히드는 활성산소를 생산하는 독성물질로 잘 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 8주간 에탄올에 노출된 Aldh2 knockout 마우스를 사용하여 ALDH2 효소 활성이 뇌 조직과 소변의 지질과산화에 미치는 영향에 대하여 살펴보았으며, 지질과산화 정도를 측정하기 위해 HPLC를 통한 TBARS 정도를 측정하였다. 연구결과, 마우스에서 만성 에탄올 섭취는 뇌 조직 TBARS 생성에 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났으나, 소변 TBARS는 Aldh2 (-/-) 마우스에서 에탄올을 투여함에 따라 유의한 증가를 보였다(p<0.05). 본 연구 결과로부터 8주간 에탄올을 경구 투여한 마우스에서 ALDH2의 활성은 체내의 전반적인 활성산소 생성에는 중요하게 관여하는 것으로 보이지만 뇌조직에서의 활성산소 생성에는 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 보이며, 이는 에탄올 노출과 이에 따른 활성산소가 다양한 만성 뇌질환을 유발한다는 기존의 가설에서 ALDH2의 활성이 중요하게 관여하지 않을 가능성을 시사한다.
