Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the detection field of alcohol metabolism genes. Specifically, the present invention relates to methods and reagents for detecting alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH1B) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2). Background technique
[0002] There have been many previous literatures in the field that support the polymorphism of alcohol dehydrogenase (alcohol dehydrogenase, ADH1B) gene and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (aldehyde dehydrogenase, ALDH2) gene in cancer risk in alcohol consumers (especially Asian population) increased risk. Alcohol consumption in human individuals with ADH1B*1 / *1 or ALDH2*1 / *2 genotypes increases the risk of upper respiratory, gastrointestinal, and other cancers (Druesne-Pecollo N et al., Lancet Oncol. 2009; 10 (2):173-80; Yokoyama A et al., Keio J Med.2010; 59(4):115-30; Baan R et al., Lancet Oncol.2007Apr; 8(4):292-30 and Brooks PJ et al., PLoS Med. 2009 Mar 24;6(3):e50). The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)...
