title: The chemistry and biological effects of malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde adducts.
abstract: This article represents the proceedings of a workshop at the 2000 ISBRA Meeting in Yokohama, Japan. The chairs were Geoffrey M. Thiele and Simon Worrall. The presentations were (1) The chemistry of malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde (MAA) adducts, by Dean J. Tuma; (2) The formation and clearance of MAA adducts in ethanol-fed rats, by Simon Worrall; (3) Immune responses to MAA adducts may play a role in the development of alcoholic liver disease, by Lynell W. Klassen; (4) Unique biological responses to MAA-modified proteins that may play a role in the development and/or progression of alcoholic liver disease, by Geoffrey M. Thiele; (5) MAA-adducted bovine serum albumin activates protein kinase C and stimulates interleukin-8 release in bovine bronchial epithelial cells, by Todd A. Wyatt; and (6) An enzyme immune assay for serum antiacetaldehyde adduct antibody using low-density lipoprotein-adduct and its significance in alcoholic liver injury and ALDH2 heterozygotes, by Naruhiko Nagata.
