Ethanol metabolism in the pancreas occurs predominantly by way of an nonoxidative pathway to fatty acid ethyl esters but oxidative routes to acetaldehyde also may contribute to injury of pancreatic cells. Three metabolic systems are responsible for the oxidative metabolism

We have measured the activity of class I and II alcohol dehydrogenase isoenzymes in the sera of patients with liver tumours, using class-specific fluorogenic naphthaldehydes as substrates. The activity of the tested isoenzymes was unchanged in primary tumours and significantly

Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), which are most abundant in the liver, are the main enzymes involved in ethanol metabolism in humans. Gender-related differences in total liver ADH and ALDH activity among different animal species have been observed

Two new fluorogenic substrates for human alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), 4-methoxy-1-naphthaldehyde (IA) and 6-methoxy-2-napthaldehyde (IIA), are described. The 2-naphthaldehyde derivative fluoresces in aqueous media with a quantum yield of 0.22 with an emission maximum at 450 nm, but the 1-naphthaldehyde shows

The effect of methanol poisoning of rats on the hepatic activities of enzymes metabolizing alcohols was evaluated. The activities of alcohol (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) in the liver of rats dosed with 1.5 and 3 g of methanol/kg b.w.
