| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Acetaldehyde (AA), which is a metabolic intermediate of alcohol, shows toxicity by modification and denaturation of protein. In this study, AA modified amino acid was detected by LC-MS/MS in mouse serum and human serum after administration of alcohol. As this method is precise, this would be effective method to look into the association of AA and alcohol related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and ischemic heart disease. Furthermore, we obtained monoclonal antibody against AA-modified proteins and this antibody could be useful tool to assess toxicity of AA in the near future.
