Because age-dependent levels during early childhood (age between 1 and 6 years). Only for hepatic abundance of these proteins is unknown, we quantified ADH1A protein abundance in adults (age > 18 year) was ∼40% lower protein expression of ADHs and ALDH1A1 in a large cohort of pediatric relative to the early childhood group. Abundances of ADHs and and adult human livers by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem ALDH1A1 were not associated with sex in samples with age > 1 year mass spectrometry proteomics.

Although midterm fetal levels of hepatic ADH and biotransformation of primary alcohols to aldehydes and aldehydes to weak ALDH are significantly lower relative to adults (Smith et al., 1971), carboxylic acids, respectively (Sladek, 2003). For example, these enzymes ontogenic trajectories of these proteins across the entire age spectrum from play major roles in the metabolism of vitamin A (Kam et al., 2012; Arnold newborns to adults have not been established. Such data are important to et al., 2015), alcohol (Zakhari, 2006), and drugs such as cyclophosphamide predict the effect of age on in vivo clearance of ADHs and ALDH1A1 (CP) (de Jonge et al., 2005). Specifically, ALDH1A1 is responsible for substrates in children before clinical use. Therefore, we quantified ADH1A, converting retinaldehyde to retinoic acid, whereas ADH enzymes convert ADH1B, ADH1C, and ALDH1A1 in the hepatic cytosolic (HLC) fractions ethanol to acetaldehyde. CP is first converted by multiple cytochrome P450 isolated from a bank of tissues using our well-established proteomics enzymes to 4-hydroxy-CP, which exists in equilibrium with its open ring methodology (Prasad et al., 2016). We then studied the effect of age, sex, tautomer, aldophosphamide.

  • The Failure of Two Major Formaldehyde Catabolism Enzymes (ADH5 and ALDH2) Leads to Partial Synthetic Lethality in C57BL/ 6 Mice Jun Nakamura1,2*, Darcy W
    Nakamura et al. Genes and Environment (2020) 42:21 https://doi.org/10.1186/s41021-020-00160-4 SHORT REPORT Open Access The failure of two major formaldehyde catabolism enzymes (ADH5 and ALDH2) leads to partial synthetic lethality in C57BL/ 6 mice Jun Nakamura1,2*, Darcy W. Holley3, Toshihiro Kawamoto4 and Scott J. Bultman3 Abstract Background: Exogenous formaldehyde is classified by the IARC as a Category 1 known human carcinogen. Meanwhile, a significant amount of endogenous formaldehyde is produced in the human body; as such, formaldehyde-derived DNA and protein adducts have been detected in animals and humans in the absence of major exogenous formaldehyde exposure. However, the toxicological effects of endogenous formaldehyde on individuals with normal DNA damage repair functions are not well understood. In this study, we attempted to generate C57BL/6 mice deficient in both Adh5 and Aldh2, which encode two major enzymes that metabolize endogenous formaldehyde, in order to understand the effects of endogenous formaldehyde on mice with normal DNA repair function. Results: Due to deficiencies in both ADH5 and ALDH2, few mice survived past post-natal day 21. In fact, the survival of pups within the first few days after birth was significantly decreased. Remarkably, two Aldh2−/−/Adh5−/− mice survived for 25 days after birth, and we measured their total body weight and organ weights. The body weight of Aldh2−/−/Adh5−/− mice decreased significantly by almost 37% compared to the Aldh2−/−/Adh5+/− and Aldh2−/−/Adh5+/+ mice of the same litter. In addition, the absolute weight of each organ was also significantly reduced. Conclusion: Mice deficient in both formaldehyde-metabolizing enzymes ADH5 and ALDH2 were found to develop partial synthetic lethality and mortality shortly after birth.

Capobianchi1, Francesco Nicola Lauria1 and Giuseppe Ippolito 1 Abstract In the last months, many studies have clearly described several mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection at cell and tissue level, but the mechanisms of interaction between host and SARS-CoV-2, determining the grade of COVID-19 severity, are still unknown. We provide a network analysis on protein–protein interactions (PPI) between viral and host proteins to better identify host biological responses, induced by both whole proteome of SARS-CoV-2 and specific viral proteins. A host-virus interactome was inferred, applying an explorative algorithm (Random Walk with Restart, RWR) triggered by 28 proteins of SARS-CoV-2. The analysis of PPI allowed to estimate the distribution of SARS-CoV-2 proteins in the host cell. Interactome built around one single viral protein allowed to define a different response, underlining as ORF8 and ORF3a modulated cardiovascular diseases and pro-inflammatory pathways, respectively. Finally, the network-based approach highlighted a possible direct action of ORF3a and NS7b to enhancing Bradykinin Storm.

  • How Is Alcohol Metabolized by the Body?
    Overview: How Is Alcohol Metabolized by the Body? Samir Zakhari, Ph.D. Alcohol is eliminated from the body by various metabolic mechanisms. The primary enzymes involved are aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), cytochrome P450 (CYP2E1), and catalase. Variations in the genes for these enzymes have been found to influence alcohol consumption, alcohol-related tissue damage, and alcohol dependence. The consequences of alcohol metabolism include oxygen deficits (i.e., hypoxia) in the liver; interaction between alcohol metabolism byproducts and other cell components, resulting in the formation of harmful compounds (i.e., adducts); formation of highly reactive oxygen-containing molecules (i.e., reactive oxygen species [ROS]) that can damage other cell components; changes in the ratio of NADH to NAD+ (i.e., the cell’s redox state); tissue damage; fetal damage; impairment of other metabolic processes; cancer; and medication interactions. Several issues related to alcohol metabolism require further research.

  • Genetic Polymorphisms of ADH1B, ADH1C and ALDH2 in Turkish Alcoholics: Lack of Association with Alcoholism and Alcoholic Cirrhosis
    BOSNIAN JOURNAL OF BASIC MEDICAL SCIENCES RESEARCH ARTICLE WWW.BJBMS.ORG Genetic polymorphisms of ADH1B, ADH1C and ALDH2 in Turkish alcoholics: lack of association with alcoholism and alcoholic cirrhosis Sezgin Vatansever1, Fatih Tekin1*, Esin Salman1, Ender Altintoprak2, Hakan Coskunol2, Ulus Salih Akarca1 1Department of Gastroenterology and 2Department of Psychiatry, Ege University Medical School, Izmir, Turkey ABSTRACT No data exists regarding the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) gene polymorphisms in Turkish alcoholic cirrhotics. We studied the polymorphisms of ADH1B, ADH1C and ALDH2 genes in alcoholic cirrhotics and compared the results with non-cir- rhotic alcoholics and healthy volunteers. Overall, 237 subjects were included for the study: 156 alcoholic patients (78 cirrhotics, 78 non-cirrhotic alcoholics) and 81 healthy volunteers. Three different single-nucleotide-polymorphism genotyping methods were used.ADH1C genotyping was performed using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The identifiedADH1C genotypes were named according to the presence or absence of the enzyme restriction sites. ADH1B (Arg47Hys) genotyping was performed using the allele specific primer extension method, and ALDH2 (Glu487Lys) genotyping was performed by a multiplex polymerase chain reaction using two allele-specific primer pairs. For ADH1B, the frequency of allele *1 in the cirrhotics, non-cirrhotic alcoholics and healthy volunteers was 97.4%, 94.9% and 99.4%, respectively. For ADH1C, the frequency of allele *1 in the cirrhotics, non-cirrhotic alcoholics and healthy volunteers was 47%, 36.3% and 45%, respectively. There was no statistical difference between the groups for ADH1B and ADH1C (p>0.05). All alcoholic and non-al- coholic subjects (100%) had the allele *1 for ALDH2.
