Genetic influences on alcohol flushing in East Asian populations

Genetic influences on alcohol flushing in East Asian populations

Abstract Background Although it is known that variation in the aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) gene family influences the East Asian alcohol flushing response, knowledge about other genetic variants that affect flushing symptoms is limited. Methods We performed a genome-wide association study meta-...
