1 BACKGROUND/AIMS: In addition to the possible toxicological impact of cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) in alcohol-induced liver damage, its activity can be regarded as a variable for drug action in patients with alcoholic liver disease as CYP2E1 is involved in the metabolism of several drugs, for example, paracetamol and halogenated anesthetics. Alcohols cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily E member 1 Homo sapiens

4 CYP2E1 activity was significantly lower in non-induced patients with severe alcoholic liver disease (0.19+/-0.10) than in healthy controls (0.50+/-0.28, p<0.01), abstaining alcohol abusers with minor (0.67+/-0.60, p<0.01) and more pronounced alcoholic liver disease (0.53+/-0.31, p<0.01).
