Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase 2 regulates HMG-CoA reductase stability and cholesterol synthesis in the liver
HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) is the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis and the target for cholesterol-lowering therapy. Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is primarily responsible for detoxifying ethanol-derived acetaldehyde and endogenous lipid aldehydes derived from lipid peroxidation...
