2021, AlcoholCitation Excerpt :Ongoing cycles of high levels of ethanol abuse and ethanol metabolism represent a primary mechanism of organ damage and is one major contributing factor resulting in the pathology of ALD and subsequent development of late-stage ALD (Han et al., 2012). Ethanol is primarily metabolized in the liver by cytosolic alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and the inducible cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) in mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (Lieber, Rubin, & DeCarli, 1970; Seitz et al., 2018). The metabolism of ethanol by ADH1 and CYP2E1 results in the oxidation of ethanol to acetaldehyde (ACH), a highly reactive and toxic metabolite, which is then further metabolized to acetate by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) located in the mitochondria in the liver.
