Abstract
A high-fat diet is believed to be a risk factor for hypertension through inducing obesity. It has been reported that variants of the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) and beta-3 adrenergic receptor (B3AR) genes are associated with obesity and blood pressure. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary fat on blood pressure with or without the variant of the FTO and B3AR genes. A total of 227 healthy Japanese women aged 18 to 64 years were recruited for measurement of nutrient intake and blood pressure. The single nucleotide polymorphism rs9939609 of the FTO gene and rs4994 of the B3AR gene were genotyped. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was applied to investigate the relationship between fat intake and blood pressure. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis was performed to determine whether the genotype interacts with fat intake to affect blood pressure. No significant correlations were found between fat intake and either systolic or diastolic blood pressure. A significant negative correlation was found between fat intake and both blood pressures in the FTO-gene-variant group, but not in the normal-FTO-gene group. In hierarchical multiple regression analysis, the interaction of fat intake and the gene variant showed significance, and the change in coefficient of determination (R 2) was significantly increased with increases of the interaction variable. These results indicate that the effect of fat intake on blood pressure may be modified by the variant of the FTO gene such that a high-fat diet intake may be associated with a decrease of systolic and diastolic blood pressure in healthy Japanese women with the FTO variant. Our results did not support the hypothesis that a high-fat diet increases blood pressure.

Abstract
Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disorder that manifests as congenital abnormalities and bone marrow failure (BMF). Most patients with FA present with BMF within the first decade of life; however, neonate and early infancy BMF is rare. Recent studies have shown that a defective aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) variant accelerates BMF development in patients with FA. Herein, we described an infant case of FA with compound heterozygous FANCI mutation and the defective ALDH2 variant. Our case developed BMF early probably because of ALDH2 deficiency, while the mild malformation might be because of the locus of FANCI mutation.

Confronting two biomolecular techniques to detect NRF2 gene polymorphism biomarkers. Future Sci OA 2019; 5:FSO361.

Abstract
Aim: Gene polymorphism biomarkers identify individual susceptibility to environmental and occupational hazards. The conventional approach considers polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (RFLP), a reliable but expensive and time-consuming two-step procedure. Therefore we evaluated the simpler method confronting two-pair primers (CTPP)–PCR for its robustness and applicability to epidemiologic studies. Materials & methods: We compared CTPP–PCR and PCR–RFLP techniques to detect two NRF2 polymorphisms in a set of biological samples. Results: CTPP–PCR produced contradictory results and required the orthogonal technique for confirming the data. Conclusion: In contrast to PCR-RFLP, CTPP–PCR of NRF2 polymorphisms resulted in ambiguous genotyping which strongly jeopardized heterozygosis classification. The necessity of long optimization and control procedures nullified the potential advantages of CTPP–PCR in terms of costs and time. Confronting two-pair primers-polymerase chain reaction (CTPP–PCR) is potentially a fast, simple and cost-efficient method for the detection of gene polymorphism biomarkers. This technique was used to genotype two SNPs of NRF2 gene in a set of biological samples but resulted in ambiguous results. Therefore, it was necessary to validate the CTPP–PCR genotyping data with the orthogonal technique PCR-RFLP. Since reproducibility is a critical issue in both biomedical research and diagnostics, we advise pairing CTPP–PCR with control methods and evaluating whether the overall package is still convenient for massive genetic screening.

Abstract
In recent years, many single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been successfully genotyped by polymerase chain reaction with confronting two-pair primers (PCR-CTPP). However, computation experiments of feasible CTPP primers are still challenging. The melting temperatures between four primers must be within a very narrow range, and many primer constraints need to be conformed to. PCR-CTPP is a simple, time- and cost-effective SNP genotyping method applied in molecular biology and biomedical fields. In this study, an MA (memetic algorithm)-based method is proposed to enable the design of feasible CTPP primer sets. Overall, 288 SNPs which exclude the deletion/insertion polymorphisms (DIPs) and multi-nucleotide polymorphisms (MNPs) in the SLC6A4 gene were tested in silico. The results were compared with a GA (genetic algorithm)-based method and indicate that the proposed method provides more feasible CTPP primers than the GA-based method. The MA-based CTPP primer design method provides critical melting temperatures and all kinds of evaluation of the common primer constraints. It could conceivably assist biologists and other researchers in obtaining feasible CTTP primer sets. The MA-CTPP algorithm is implemented in JAVA and a user-friendly input interface is freely available at http://bio.kuas.edu.tw/ma-ctpp/.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM We aimed to clarify the influences of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), alcohol dehydrogenase 1B (ADH1B) polymorphisms, and ethanol consumption profile to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development in alcoholic liver cirrhosis without chronic hepatitis B and C virus infection (non-B non-C). METHODS Of 236 freshly diagnosed non-B non-C alcoholic liver cirrhosis patients, 67 were diagnosed as HCC and the remaining 169 as not having HCC. The relationship between the genetic polymorphisms and development to HCC were evaluated in well-matched patients with HCC (HCC group, n = 67) and without HCC (non-HCC group, n = 67) using propensity scores in age, sex, and prevalence of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS Daily amount of ethanol consumption was significantly lower (P = 0.005), and consumptive period was significantly longer (P = 0.003) in HCC group than non-HCC group. Of 134 well-matched patients, 113 (84.3%) had ALDH2*1/*1 genotype and 21 (15.7%) had ALDH2*1/*2 genotype. In HCC development, consumptive long period (P = 0.007) and carrying ALDH2*1/*2 genotype (P = 0.026) were identified as significant factors independently participated, while there was no relation to ADH1B polymorphism. In addition, consumptive period was significantly longer in HCC group than non-HCC group in ALDH2*1/*1 genotype patients (P = 0.0005), while there was no difference in profile of ethanol consumption in ALDH2*1/*2 genotype patients. Among HCC group, daily (P = 3.78 × 10(-6) ) and cumulative amount (P = 4.89 × 10(-6) ) of ethanol consumption were significantly higher in ALDH2*1/*1 genotype patients than ALDH2*1/*2 genotype patients. CONCLUSION In alcoholic liver cirrhosis, investigations of ALDH2 polymorphism and ethanol consumption profile are useful for prediction of HCC development.

Abstract
No data exists regarding the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) gene polymorphisms in Turkish alcoholic cirrhotics. We studied the polymorphisms of ADH1B, ADH1C and ALDH2 genes in alcoholic cirrhotics and compared the results with non-cirrhotic alcoholics and healthy volunteers. Overall, 237 subjects were included for the study: 156 alcoholic patients (78 cirrhotics, 78 non-cirrhotic alcoholics) and 81 healthy volunteers. Three different single-nucleotide-polymorphism genotyping methods were used. ADH1C genotyping was performed using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The identified ADH1C genotypes were named according to the presence or absence of the enzyme restriction sites. ADH1B (Arg47Hys) genotyping was performed using the allele specific primer extension method, and ALDH2 (Glu487Lys) genotyping was performed by a multiplex polymerase chain reaction using two allele-specific primer pairs. For ADH1B, the frequency of allele *1 in the cirrhotics, non-cirrhotic alcoholics and healthy volunteers was 97.4%, 94.9% and 99.4%, respectively. For ADH1C, the frequency of allele *1 in the cirrhotics, non-cirrhotic alcoholics and healthy volunteers was 47%, 36.3% and 45%, respectively. There was no statistical difference between the groups for ADH1B and ADH1C (p>0.05). All alcoholic and non-alcoholic subjects (100%) had the allele *1 for ALDH2. The obtained results for ADH1B, ADH1C, and ALDH gene polymorphisms in the present study are similar to the results of Caucasian studies. ADH1B and ADH1C genetic variations are not related to the development of alcoholism or susceptibility to alcoholic cirrhosis. ALDH2 gene has no genetic variation in the Turkish population.

Abstract
Regular and irregular abuse of alcohol are global health priorities associated with diseases at multiple sites, including cancer. Mechanisms of diseases induced by alcohol are closely related to its metabolism. Among conventional markers of alcohol abuse, the mean corpuscular volume (MCV) of erythrocytes is prognostic of alcohol-related cancer and its predictivity increases when combined with functional polymorphisms of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH1B [rs1229984] and ADH1C [rs698]) and the mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2 [rs671]). Whether these genetic variants can influence abuse in alcohol drinking and MCV has never been examined in drunk-driving traffic offenders. We examined 149 drunk drivers, diagnosed as alcohol abusers according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth edition Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) and enrolled in a probation program, and 257 social drinkers (controls), all Caucasian males. Alcohol intake was assessed according to self-reported drink-units/d and MCV unadjusted and adjusted for age, smoking, and body mass index. Multivariable models were used to compute MCV adjusted means. Genotype analyses were performed by PCR on DNA from blood. The adjusted MCV mean was higher in drunk-driving abusers than in controls (92 vs. 91fL; P<.0001) and increased with the number of drink-units/d in both abusers and controls (P-trend=.0316 and .0089) already at intermediate quantities (0-1 vs. 2-4 drink-units/d: P=.054 and .024). Carriers of the common ADH1B*1/*1 (rs1229984) genotype were more likely to be drunk-driving abusers (P=.008), reported higher drink-units/d (P=.0126), and had larger MCV (P=.035). The rs698 ADH1C and rs671 ALDH2 polymorphisms were not associated with MCV. ADH1B*1/*1 polymorphism is significantly associated with being a drunk-driving abuser, higher alcohol drinking, and MCV enlargement. This suggests that drunk drivers with augmented MCV modulated by the alcohol metabolic ADH1B*1/*1 genotype may be at higher risk of driving incapability and of alcohol-related cancer.

Abstract
Alcohol abuse leads to earlier onset of aging-related diseases, including cancer at multiple sites. Shorter telomere length (TL) in peripheral blood leucocytes (PBLs), a marker of biological aging, has been associated with alcohol-related cancer risks. Whether alcohol abusers exhibit accelerated biological aging, as reflected in PBL-TL, has never been examined. To investigated the effect of alcohol abuse on PBL-TL and its interaction with alcohol metabolic genotypes, we examined 200 drunk-driving traffic offenders diagnosed as alcohol abusers as per the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders [DSM-IV-TR] and enrolled in a probation program, and 257 social drinkers (controls). We assessed alcohol intake using self-reported drink-units/day and conventional alcohol abuse biomarkers (serum γ-glutamyltrasferase [GGT] and mean corpuscular volume of erythrocytes [MCV]). We used multivariable models to compute TL geometric means (GM) adjusted for age, smoking, BMI, diet, job at elevated risk of accident, genotoxic exposures. TL was nearly halved in alcohol abusers compared with controls (GMs 0.42 vs. 0.87 relative T/S ratio; p<0.0001) and decreased in relation with increasing drink-units/day (p-trend=0.003). Individuals drinking >4 drink-units/day had substantially shorter TL than those drinking ≤4 drink-units/day (GMs 0.48 vs. 0.61 T/S, p=0.002). Carriers of the common ADH1B*1/*1 (rs1229984) genotype were more likely to be abusers (p=0.008), reported higher drink-units/day (p=0.0003), and exhibited shorter TL (p<0.0001). The rs698 ADH1C and rs671 ALDH2 polymorphisms were not associated with TL. The decrease in PBL-TL modulated by the alcohol metabolic genotype ADH1B*1/*1 may represent a novel mechanism potentially related to alcohol carcinogenesis in alcohol abusers.

Abstract
Background Polymerase chain reaction with confronting two-pair primers (PCR-CTPP) method produces allele-specific DNA bands of different lengths by adding four designed primers and it achieves the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping by electrophoresis without further steps. It is a time- and cost-effective SNP genotyping method that has the advantage of simplicity. However, computation of feasible CTPP primers is still challenging. Results In this study, we propose a GA (genetic algorithm)-based method to design a feasible CTPP primer set to perform a reliable PCR experiment. The SLC6A4 gene was tested with 288 SNPs for dry dock experiments which indicated that the proposed algorithm provides CTPP primers satisfied most primer constraints. One SNP rs12449783 in the SLC6A4 gene was taken as an example for the genotyping experiments using electrophoresis which validated the GA-based design method as providing reliable CTPP primer sets for SNP genotyping. Conclusions The GA-based CTPP primer design method provides all forms of estimation for the common primer constraints of PCR-CTPP. The GA-CTPP program is implemented in JAVA and a user-friendly input interface is freely available at http://bio.kuas.edu.tw/ga-ctpp/.

Abstract
The most well-known metabolic pathways from ethanol to acetaldehyde include alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and the microsomal ethanol oxidizing system that involves cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1). Acetaldehyde is further oxidized to acetate by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). The genetic variation of ADH1B, ALDH2, and CYP2E1 is different among racial populations and cause difference in elimination rates of alcohol. The aim of this study was to determine the polymorphisms of ADH1B (rs1229984; Arg47His), ALDH2 (rs671; Glu487Lys), CYP2E1*6 (rs6413432; T7632A), and CYP2E1*7B (rs6413420; G-71T) in unrelated healthy Turkish population and compare it with other populations. ADH1B and ALDH2 polymorphisms were analyzed with an allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay, and CYP2E1*6 and CYP2E1*7B polymorphisms were genotyped by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. ADH1B polymorphism analysis yielded the genotype distribution as 83.9% ADH1B*1/1 and 16.1% ADH1B*1/2, and no individuals with ALDH2*1/2 and ALDH2*2/2 genotypes were found in Turkish population. The genotype frequencies for CYP2E1*6 polymorphism were found as 85.3% for homozygote common, 14.1% for heterozygote, and 0.6% for homozygote uncommon. For CYP2E1*7B polymorphism, the genotype frequencies were determined to be 86.5% G/G, 13.5% for G/T; however, no individuals with homozygote uncommon genotype were detected. According to our study results, the genotype distributions of ADH1B, ALDH2, CYP2E1*6, and CYP2E1*7B in Turkish population were similar compared with Caucasian and some European populations, whereas differed significantly from East Asian populations. This study may be useful in epidemiological studies of the influence of ADH1B, ALDH2, CYP2E1*6, and CYP2E1*7B polymorphisms on diseases, including several types of cancer related to alcohol consumption and alcohol dependence.

Abstract
The association between two functional polymorphisms in alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH2/ADH1B) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) genes and alcohol dependence was examined in 182 Chinese and Indian patients undergoing treatment for alcohol dependence and 184 screened control subjects from Singapore. All subjects were screened by the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT). Patients were also administered the Severity of Alcohol Dependence Questionnaire (SADQ). Polymorphisms were genotyped by allele-specific polymerase chain reaction and selected genotypes confirmed by DNA sequencing or restriction fragment length polymorphism. Our results showed that frequencies of ADH1B*2 and ALDH2*2 were higher in controls compared to alcohol-dependent subjects for both Chinese and Indians. Frequencies of these two alleles were also higher in the 104 Chinese controls compared to the 80 Indian controls. None of the eight Chinese who were homozygous for both protective alleles was alcohol dependent. The higher frequencies of the protective alleles could explain the lower rate of alcohol dependence in Chinese.

Abstract
1. The liver, the main site of ethanol oxidation, is extremely vulnerable to the toxic effects of alcohol. Chronic alcohol intake has been shown to result in alcoholic liver disease, although the precise mechanism of action remains poorly understood. 2. The present study was designed to examine the impact of facilitated acetaldehyde metabolism via overexpression of aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) on chronic alcohol ingestion-induced hepatic damage. Mice (wild-type Friend Virus B (FVB) and ALDH2 transgenic mice) were placed on a 4% alcohol or control diet for 12 weeks. Pro- and anti-apoptotic proteins, including p53, Omi/HtrA2, Bcl-2, Bax, X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), Akt, phosphorylated (p) Akt, the Akt downstream signalling molecule Pim and pPim, were examined using immunoblot analysis. Apoptosis and protein damage were assessed using the caspase 3 assay and protein carbonyl formation, respectively. 3. The data revealed that alcohol intake enhanced expression of p53, Omi/HtrA2, Bcl-2 and Bax without affecting XIAP expression or the Bcl-2/Bax ratio. Total Akt and pPim were downregulated in response to alcohol, whereas total Pim was upregulated in conjunction with unchanged pAkt. As a result, the pAkt : Akt and pPim : Pim ratios were elevated and reduced, respectively, in response to alcohol. All these effects that resulted from alcohol exposure were attenuated or ablated by ALDH2. 4. Collectively, the results suggest that ALDH2 may effectively ameliorate alcohol-induced hepatic apoptosis and changes in Akt as well as Pim signalling.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the impact of alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2) and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) polymorphisms on esophageal cancer risk.
METHODS: One hundred and ninety-one esophageal cancer patients and 198 healthy controls from Yanting County were enrolled in this study. ADH2 and ALDH2 genotypes were examined by polymerase-chain-reaction with the confronting-two-pair-primer (PCR-CTPP) method. Unconditional logistic regression was used to calculate the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI).
RESULTS: Both ADH2*1 allele and ALDH2*1/*2 allele showed an increased risk of developing esophageal cancer. The adjusted OR (95% CI) for ADH2*1 allele compared with ADH2*2/*2 was 1.65 (95% CI = 1.02-2.68) and 1.67 (95% CI = 1.02-2.72) for ALDH2*1/*2 compared with ALDH2*1/*1. A significant interaction between ALDH2 and drinking was detected regarding esophageal cancer risk, the OR was 1.83 (95% CI = 1.13-2.95). Furthermore, when compared with ADH2*2/*2 and ALDH2*1/*1 carriers, ADH2*1 and ALDH2*2 carriers showed an elevated risk of developing esophageal cancer among non-alcohol drinkers (OR = 2.46, 95% CI = 0.98-6.14), and a significantly elevated risk of developing esophageal cancer among alcohol drinkers among alcohol drinkers (OR = 9.86, 95% CI = 3.10-31.38).
CONCLUSION: ADH2 and ALDH2 genotypes are associated with esophageal cancer risk. ADH2*1 allele and ALDH2*2 allele carriers have a much higher risk of developing esophageal cancer, especially among alcohol drinkers.

Abstract
Although the functional effect of alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2) His(47)Arg polymorphism has been elucidated, its effect on habitual drinking remains unknown. Here, we conducted a cross-sectional study in 2,299 nonalcoholic Japanese subjects (989 men and 1,310 women). Drinking status, ethanol consumption, and physical reaction to one glass of beer were examined with regard to ADH2 and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) polymorphism. Strength of associations were assessed by age-, sex-, smoking status-, and genotype-adjusted odds ratios and their 95% confidence intervals. ADH2 His/Arg and Arg/Arg genotypes showed higher risk for habitual drinking. Among men, ALDH2 genotype- and confounder-adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) were 1.30 (0.89-1.89) and 3.16 (1.03-9.70), and this trend was significant (P = 0.024). A similar trend was observed among women. The combination genotypes of two polymorphisms revealed the clear effect of the ADH2 Arg allele among those with ALDH2 Glu/Lys in both sexes (P(trend) = 0.007 for men and 0.024 for women). Physical reactions, such as flushing and palpitation, were significantly less common in those with Arg/Arg compared with other ADH2 genotypes, and this was marked when combined with ALDH2 Glu/Lys. Heavy drinker status was also strongly associated with ADH2 Arg alleles. In conclusion, this study showed the strong effect of ADH2 His(47)Arg polymorphism on habitual drinking regardless of ALDH2 genotype.

Abstract
Alcohol consumption is recognized as a potential risk factor for colorectal cancer (CRC). Genetic polymorphisms, aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) Glu487Lys and alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2) His47Arg, which have a strong impact on alcohol metabolism, are common in Japanese population but their significance for CRC carcinogenesis remains to be clarified in detail. We, therefore, conducted a matched case-control study with 257 incident CRC cases and 771 non-cancer controls at Aichi Cancer Center, including analysis of interactions between polymorphisms, drinking and folate consumption. The ADH2 Arg allele was found to be associated with increased risk, the odds ratios (ORs) being 1.35 (95% confidence interval: 1.00-1.84) and 1.93 (1.06-3.53) for the His/Arg and Arg/Arg genotypes, respectively. In contrast, no apparent links were observed with the ALDH2 genotypes. Individuals having ALDH2 Glu/Glu with ADH2 Arg+, ALDH2 Lys+ with ADH2 His/His and ALDH2 Lys+ with ADH2 Arg+ showed ORs of 0.10(0.04-0.21), 0.10 (0.06-0.19) and 1.36 (0.94-1.97), respectively, compared with ALDH2 Glu/Glu with ADH2 His/His. Statistical gene-gene interaction was significant between the two polymorphisms for the risk of CRC (P< 0.001). The impact of ALDH2 Lys+ with ADH2 Arg+ was more evident in low folate consumer (OR = 2.32, 1.19-4.55) than high folate consumer (OR 1.38, 0.80-2.38). In conclusion, while we failed to find any significant association with the ALDH2 polymorphism itself, significant interaction between ALDH2 and ADH2 polymorphism was observed. Replication in the future study is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Two duplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with confronting two-pair primer (PCR-CTPP) methods were designed for cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2E1 RsaI and interleukin (IL-2) T-330G, and for IL-1B C-31T and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-A) T-1031C. The four polymorphisms are considered to be functional, and the three cytokines reportedly inhibit CYP2E1 expression. Many studies have reported associations between the above polymorphisms and risk of diseases including cancers and inflammatory diseases. AIM The main objective of this study was to examine the applicability of the established PCR conditions to a real situation. PARTICIPANTS Participants were female examinees aged from 35 to 85 years who attended health checks run by a local government in Japan. RESULTS The allele frequencies among 325 female health check examinees were 0.804 for CYP2E1 c1 allele, 0.668 for IL-2-330T allele, 0.554 for IL-1B-31T allele, and 0.822 for TNF-A-1031T allele. p-Values from a Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test were 0.658, 0.955, 0.062, and 0.806, respectively. DISCUSSION Clear DNA bands observed with electrophoresis allowed us to genotype the four polymorphisms. The genotype frequencies were within the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test proportions, though the p-value for IL-1B C-31T was marginal. CONCLUSIONS Both duplex PCR-CTPP methods may be useful tools for studies on the association between these polymorphisms and disease risk.

Abstract
Although alcohol intake as well as hepatitis viruses has been associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), gene-alcohol interactions on HCC risk remain to be elucidated. We conducted a case-control study to examine whether polymorphisms of alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2) and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) modified the HCC risk depending on the amount of alcohol intake. ADH2 and ALDH2 genotyping was performed by a duplex polymerase chain reaction with confronting two-pair primers in 209 newly diagnosed HCC cases and 2 different controls [275 hospital controls and 381 patients with chronic liver disease (CLD)]. Multiple logistic regression analyses revealed that heavy drinkers consuming >or=3 "go"s/day of sake (69 g of ethanol/day) showed an increased risk of HCC based on comparison of HCC cases with hospital controls [adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 13.5; 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.3-54.3] or CLD patients (adjusted OR = 7.0; 95% CI 2.5-19.2), whereas the overall risk was not elevated among light to moderate drinkers consuming <3 "go"s/day. Interestingly, light to moderate drinking was associated with an increased risk among those with ALDH2*1/*2 (adjusted OR = 4.5 or 2.0), but not among those with ALDH2*1/*1 (adjusted OR = 0.8 or 1.0; p interaction = 0.03 or 0.13). However, this gene-alcohol interaction was not observed for heavy drinking. Among light to moderate drinkers, people with the combination of ALDH2*1/*2 and ADH2*2/*2 revealed the highest risk of HCC. These findings indicate that the ALDH2 polymorphism may modify HCC risk among light to moderate drinkers.
