acetaldehyde and Fibrosis

acetaldehyde has been researched along with Fibrosis in 7 studies

Acetaldehyde: A colorless, flammable liquid used in the manufacture of acetic acid, perfumes, and flavors. It is also an intermediate in the metabolism of alcohol. It has a general narcotic action and also causes irritation of mucous membranes. Large doses may cause death from respiratory paralysis.
acetaldehyde : The aldehyde formed from acetic acid by reduction of the carboxy group. It is the most abundant carcinogen in tobacco smoke.
aldehyde : A compound RC(=O)H, in which a carbonyl group is bonded to one hydrogen atom and to one R group.
acetyl group : A group, formally derived from acetic acid by dehydroxylation, which is fundamental to the biochemistry of all forms of life. When bound to coenzyme A, it is central to the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats.

Fibrosis: Any pathological condition where fibrous connective tissue invades any organ, usually as a consequence of inflammation or other injury.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" This study examined the role of pancreatic stellate cells in alcoholic pancreatic fibrosis by determining whether these cells are activated by ethanol itself and, if so, whether such activation is caused by the metabolism of ethanol to acetaldehyde and/or the generation of oxidant stress within the cells."3.70Does alcohol directly stimulate pancreatic fibrogenesis? Studies with rat pancreatic stellate cells. ( Apte, MV; Darby, SJ; Fahmy, RG; Korsten, MA; McCaughan, GW; Naidoo, D; Phillips, PA; Pirola, RC; Rodgers, SC; Wilson, JS, 2000)
"Hepatic fibrosis is due to the increased synthesis and deposition of type I collagen."1.32Identification of a novel NF-kappaB-binding site with regulation of the murine alpha2(I) collagen promoter. ( Mezey, E; Novitskiy, G; Potter, JJ; Rennie-Tankersley, L, 2004)
"Malondialdehyde levels were determined as an indicator of lipid peroxidation."1.31Does alcohol directly stimulate pancreatic fibrogenesis? Studies with rat pancreatic stellate cells. ( Apte, MV; Darby, SJ; Fahmy, RG; Korsten, MA; McCaughan, GW; Naidoo, D; Phillips, PA; Pirola, RC; Rodgers, SC; Wilson, JS, 2000)
