Photobiomodulation therapy drives massive epigenetic histone modifications, stem cells mobilization and accelerated epithelial healing

"To analyze the effects of PBMT in keratinocyte stem cells, we explored the effects of low power laser over ALDH
levels, a known detoxifying enzyme involved in the oxidation of intracellular aldehydes [50]. ALDH may have a function in the early differentiation of stem cells through its role in oxidizing retinol to retinoic acid being considered a functional marker for the stem cell population. High ALDH levels have been reported in stem cells from different tissues and to be present at high levels in cancer stem [51, 52]."

ALDH2 as a potential stem cell-related biomarker in lung adenocarcinoma: Comprehensive multi-omics analysis

"The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) reported that diminished ALDH2 expression was closely linked to worse overall survival (OS) in different stages of LUAD. Considerably, ALDH2 showed aberrant DNA methylation status in LUAD cancer. ALDH2 was found to be downregulated in the proteomic expression profile of several cell biology signaling pathways, particularly stem cell-related pathways. Finally, the relationship of ALDH2 activity with stem cell-related factors and immune system were reported. In conclusion, the downregulation of ALDH2, abnormal DNA methylation, and the consequent deficit of stemness signaling pathways are relevant prognostic and therapeutic markers in LUAD."

We have published several research articles along this line. It is one of my research projects that is purely based on my personal interest😉

Because acetaldehyde damages DNA, people (especially individual with heterozygous for this allele) shouldn't be drinking a lot. But people with homozygous for this mutation are not able to drink alcohol at all, so they never become alcoholic, which seems to be a positive effect🤔

Triple IPA - 11.5% alcohol 🤔

I like this bitterness and light citrus flavor. But I feel alcohol a lot, thinking about acetaldehyde, the primary metabolite of alcohol, although my enzyme (ALDH2) that detoxifies acetaldehyde has no mutation 😉
About half of East Asian people have a mutation in this enzyme. I am looking forward to seeing our kids’ genotypes 🤔

"Around 8% of the world’s population has a gene variant called ALDH2*2 that impairs the body’s ability to metabolise alcohol and causes unpleasant symptoms such as flushing soon after people drink. Now, researchers have shown why this mutation also raises the risk of heart disease."

Some Long Covid symptoms, e.g., alcohol intolerance, could be due to lowered activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase, particularly ALDH2. I submitted a related hypothesis to the Patient-Led Hypothesis Generation Panel which provides background & refs (1).

Inhibition of aldehyde dehydrogenase causes lower sperm count & has been investigated as a means of male birth control (2).
