Alcohol and wine in relation to cancer and other diseases.
Heavy alcohol consumption is associated with increased overall mortality, cancer, liver, and cardiovascular diseases; but low doses of alcohol (up to one drink per day) are not associated with the risk of any cancer site with the exception of breast cancer and possibly of oral and pharyngeal cancers. Moreover, recent evidence indicates that moderate alcohol and specifically wine intake provides...
متن کاملFrom Sugar of Grape to Alcohol of Wine: Sensorial Impact of Alcohol in Wine
The quality of grapes, as well as wine quality, flavor, stability, and sensorial characteristics depends on the content and composition of several different groups of compounds from grapes. One of these groups of compounds are sugars and consequently the alcohol content quantified in wines after alcoholic fermentation. During grape berry ripening, sucrose transported from the leaves is accumula...
متن کاملAlcohol, wine and platelet function.
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated an inverse correlation between moderate wine and alcohol consumption and morbidity and mortality from coronary heart disease. The protective effect has been associated with an increase in the plasma level of HDL cholesterol, as it is well recognized that plasma HDL is inversely correlated with CHD. In addition, it has become evident that blood platelets...
متن کاملAlcohol dehydrogenase isoenzymes nomenclature.
We read with a great pleasure the article ‘Rare ADH variant constellations are specific for alcohol dependence’ by Zuo et al. (2012). We want to direct the speciality about the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) isoenzyme nomenclature to the readers of Alcohol and Alcoholism. Namely, the authors use an old isoenzyme nomenclature what can cause some confusion to not enough familiar readers. Electrophor...
متن کاملDrosophila Alcohol Dehydrogenase
Drosophila alcohol dehydrogenasc (alcohol:NADf oxidorcduct.ase, EC 1.1.1.1) has attracted attention in several laboratories (l-3) recently. Genetic variants of this enzyme were found, and consequently it was possible to determine its structural locus on the genetic map. The specific activity of alcohol dehydrogenase varies greatly along the t.ime axis of devcloprnent of this organism, and it oc...
