Overview

The pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease is complex and still remains unclear, the metabolites of the oxidative metabolism in the liver; acetaldehyde and reactive oxygen species are thought to be involved in the toxic effects of ethanol on the liver.[1]

Pathophysiology

Pathogenesis

  • Ethanol metabolism in the liver is carried out mainly by two enzymes; alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase. Both of these enzymes use NAD+ as a cofactor.
  • Alcohol is converted to acetaldehyde and acetaldehyde is then further oxidized to acetate. Acetaldehyde is the toxic metabolite in this process.
  • Since acetaldehyde has an electrophilic nature it can form covalent chemical bonds with proteins, lipids and DNA. These covalent bonds that are formed are extremely pathogenic, as they have the ability to alter cell environments, protein structures and they can enable DNA damage and mutation.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
  • The cytochrome P450 enzymes(CYP) are a part of the microsomal ethanol oxidizing system. These are a large group of enzymes involved in numerous oxidizing reactions on different substrates. They catalyze many different reactions in order to make them in to more polar metabolites that are easier to excrete.[10]
  • There is an ethanol inducible form of CYP enzymes that is working in a small amount under normal physiological conditions. This enzyme CYP2E1 is converting ethanol to acetaldehyde and then to acetate. When there is chronic alcohol abuse, there is induction of the microsomal system and there is an increase in the expression of CYP2E1. This increase in CYP2E1 expression under chronic ethanol consumption can be hazardous, as this oxidation reaction can produces many different ROS; O2
