Studies suggest that individuals with genetic polymorphisms in ADH (alcohol dehydrogenase) and ALDH (aldehyde dehydrogenase) may have a more difficult time metabolising ethanol, which might ...
When we drink alcohol, an enzyme in our bodies called alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) breaks it down into a compound called acetaldehyde. Another enzyme, aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), then turns ...
The use of ethanol or, preferably, fomepizole for alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) inhibition is a mainstay in the management of toxicity due to ingestion of methanol, ethylene glycol, or diethylene ...
