The rs671 polymorphism is associated with the enzymatic activity of aldehyde
dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), which is weakened by the A allele in East Asians. We recently …

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) catalyses aldehyde species, including alcohol
metabolites, mainly in the liver. We recently observed that ALDH2 is also expressed in …

Purpose The aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) rs671 polymorphism, which is exclusive
to the Asian population, is related to many diseases. A high reactive oxygen species …

Abstract Aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) is associated with the risk of hypertension,
and the effects of lifestyle factors on blood pressure vary according to genotype. Among the …

Abstract A scan of 4,190 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 199 different genes
using 38 different quantitative traits to search for associations between genotypes and …

Objective: The relationship among alcohol metabolism, lipid profile and cardiovascular
disease has been a matter of concern, and aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) is one of …

Not only is alcoholism one of the world's major public health problems because of the

Previous studies revealed that the rs671 polymorphism in the acetaldehyde dehydrogenase
2 (ALDH2) genes is correlated with alcohol consumption in Japanese population. The …

Associations between alcohol consumption and type 2 diabetes risk are inconsistent in
epidemiologic studies. This study investigated the associations of ADH1B and ALDH2 …
