Mechanisms in alcohol-associated carcinogenesis.

This review represents an overview on some aspects of pathogenetic mechanisms in alcohol-associated carcinogenesis and is based on presentations held on the symposium Mechanisms in alcohol-associated carcinogenesis at the 2004 ISBRA Meeting in Heidelberg/Mannheim, Germany. The chairs were Nils Homann and Hiromasa Ishii. The presentations were (1) Genetic polymorphisms of alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases, mean corpuscular volume and cancer risk of the upper aerodigestive tract in Japanese by Akira Yokoyama; (2) Retinoids, alcohol and carcinogenesis by Xiang-Dong Wang; (3) Bacterial ethanol metabolism and cancer by Nils Homann; (4) The role of ethanol metabolism in alcohol-associated carcinogenesis by Helmut K. Seitz; (5) Alcohol and breast cancer: potential mechanisms by Keith W. Singletary.
