To clarify the pathogenetic role of acetaldehyde in the development of alcoholic liver disease, genotyping of aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 genes was performed and the clinical features of the alcoholic liver disease patients with different genotypes were compared. Genotyping of aldehyde dehydrogenase-2
Alcohol abuse is described as a major cofactor in the development of hepatitis C (HCV) associated liver disease and may play a role in the outcome of interferon-based treatment interventions. The association between HCV viral heterogeneity and alcohol has not been previously described. This study wa
Antibodies to cytoplasmic microfilaments, intermediate filaments (vimentin filaments), and microtubules which comprise the cytoskeleton of the cell were assayed in sera from 23 patients with HBsAg-negative chronic active hepatitis and 1 with HBsAg-positive chronic active hepatitis, 15 patients with
The significance of antibodies to hepatitis C virus in patients with chronic alcoholic liver disease is unclear. Prior studies have utilized the first-generation enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, which is limited by problems with sensitivity and specificity. Hepatitis C virus infection in 137 pati
