Microsomal ethanol oxidation in the colonic mucosa of the rat

Abstract: A microsomal ethanol oxidizing system (MEOS) is present in the colonic mucosa of the rat. This MEOS metabolizes ethanol to acetaldehyde at the physiological pH of 7.4. Alcohol dehydrogenase or catalase are not involved in the reaction. The Michaelis Menten constant of the reaction is 13.7 +/- 0.3 mM and the maximal velocity is 219 +/- 30 pmoles acetaldehyde/mg microsomal protein X min. Bacterial ethanol metabolism does not contribute to the acetaldehyde production in the colonic MEOS. Chronic ethanol consumpti… Show more

“…Therefore, the loss of mucosal barrier function and increased gut permeability play a central role in the mechanism of alcoholic tissue injury. Tissues in vivo are simultaneously exposed to ethanol and acetaldehyde due to ubiquitous distribution of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH)3, CYP2E14 and catalase56, all known to metabolize ethanol into acetaldehyde. Mounting evidence indicates that ethanol metabolism by ADH into acetaldehyde plays a crucial role in alcoholic tissue injury in many organs78910111213.…”

“…Aber auch extrahepatische Gewebe wie die gastrointestinale Mukosa, das Pankreas und das bronchopulmonale Epithel zeigen CYP2E1, und Alkohol induziert auch dieses CYP2E1. Wir fanden eine zwei-bis dreifache Erhöhung von CYP2E1 nach Alkoholzufuhr in der Mukosa des Dünn- [21,22] und Dickdarms [23] und in den Lungen [22,24,25] von Nagern. Darüber hinaus besitzen auch das Pankreas [26] und das Gehirn [27] CYP2E1.…”

“…The increase in CYP2E1 has been reported not only in liver, but also in extrahepatic tissues such as the mucosal cells of the gastrointestinal tract (Seitz et al, 1978, 1982). In addition age plays a significant role in modeling the liver damage (Seitz and Stickel, 2007a).…”
