ALDH2/ADH2 polymorphism associated with vasculopathy and neuropathy in type 2 diabetes.

In the history of diabetes, chlorpropamide alcohol flushing test (CPAF) was a big topic in the 1970s to 1980s. Alcohol tolerance after chlorpropamide has prognostic significance, with the intolerant group (CPAF-positive group) being less prone to develop vascular complication than the tolerant group (CPAF-negative group). A mechanism of CPAF has been regarded as the inhibition of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) by an N-alkyl-substituted derivative of chlorpropamide, and the expression of these mutations of ALDH2 and alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2) could determine the alcohol tolerance among the Japanese population.

The effects of ethanol and subsequent administration of intravenous naloxone were studied in double-blind, placebo-controlled fashion with a group of six male chlorpropamide alcohol flushers (CPAF) and a group of 13 nonflushing males. The effect of ethanol intoxication on fine motor control was measured by a typing test. When sober, the two groups performed in comparable fashion.

It is known, however, that the frequency of facial flushing with alcohol and the temperature response depend upon both the plasma level of chlorpropamide and the starting facial temperature [10]. We tested 23 young adult non-diabetic subjects with 8 g of ethanol after a dose of chlorpropamide 250 mg twice daily for 2 days or a placebo, in a double blind, cross-over manner.
