Aldehyde accumulation is regarded as a pathognomonic feature of oxidative stress-associated cardiovascular disease.We investigated how the heart compensates for accelerated aldehydes.Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) has major role in aldehyde detoxification mitochondria, source aldehydes. Transgenic (Tg) mice carrying an Aldh2 gene with single nucleotide polymorphism (Aldh2*2) were developed. This dominant-negative effect and Tg exhibited impaired ALDH activity against broad range Despite...
