Healthy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Human Pharmacology Study to Evaluate the Interaction Between a Natural Inhibitor of Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) and Alcohol in Healthy Volunteers. Pilot Clinical Trial
The main objective is to assess whether a natural inhibitor of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) contained in a soy extract could interfere on alcohol metabolism and effects in humans.
Soybeans contain isoflavones, which are biologically active polyphenols known as
antioxidants and phytoestrogens. These isoflavones include daidzin, daidzein, genistin and
glycitin, and have been implicated in the beneficial effects of soy consumption.
Daidzin and daidzein are isoflavones contained in soybean that can act as natural inhibitors
of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2. Animal studies have demonstrated that some soy isoflavones can
reduce the auto-administration of cocaine and suggest they might be useful to treat cocaine
dependence.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitors, as disulfiram, are currently used in humans to treat
alcohol dependence because they interfere with ethanol metabolism (specifically in the
transformation of acetaldehyde to acetate.
Alcohol intake after disulfiram administration increases concentration of acetaldehyde in
the blood (five to 10 times higher than that found during metabolism of the same amount of
alcohol alone). The combination produced acute symptoms of a severe "hangover" (named
disulfiram-like reaction), and the patient may experience symptoms as flushing of the skin,
tachycardia, shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, throbbing headache, visual disturbances,
mental confusion, and in some cases severe reactions as postural syncope, and circulatory
collapse.
In addition, disulfiram have demonstrated clinical efficacy in cocaine dependence. The
mechanism of action for that effects are related to its ability to decrease dopamine
degradation by inhibiting the dopamine-beta-hydroxylase enzyme (metabolizes dopamine to
norepinephrine), and increasing its concentrations in some areas of the brain.
The aim of the study is to assess whether a soy extract containing isoflavones (daidzin,
daidzein and genistein) could interfere on alcohol metabolism and produce adverse effects in
humans.
