Abstract

Homocysteine and alcohol consumption The amount of plasma homocysteine concentration can change due to alcohol consumption dose. While the effect of moderate alcohol consumption on the concentration of homocysteine, and on the cardiovascular and neurological diseases are consistent, the excessive alcohol consumption is associated with an increased plasma homocysteine level. Clinical signs in alcohol withdrawal syndrome are explained by over stimulation of NMDA (N-methyl-Daspartate) receptors. Elevated levels of homocysteine demonstrate an agonistic effect at postsynaptic level and cause convulsion and exititoxic neuronal death. Some research findings imply a possible relationship of neurological and cardiovascular diseases with homocysteine levels. There may be connection between cortical, subcortical and cerebellar changes in alcohol dependency and hyperhomocysteinemia. Folate deficiency may be responsible for hyperhomocysteinemia and a risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Literature data suggest that there is a correlation between hyperhomocysteinemia and certain psychiatric diseases. Studies are needed to clarify the ethiopathogenetic relationship between hyperhomocysteinemia and the comorbidity of alcohol dependency and some psychiatric diseases. In this article the literature on relationship between homocysteine and alcohol consumption has been reviewed since 1985 with using database search for alcohol dependence and homocysteine relationship.

Özet

Alkol kullanımı ve homosistein Serum homosistein düzeyleri alkol kullanımında tüketilen alkolün miktarına bağlı olarak değişkenlik göstermektedir. Ilımlı miktarlarda alkol tüketenlerde homosistein düzeylerinin düşmesi dolayısıyla kardiyovasküler ve nörolojik hastalık riskinin azalması ile ilgili çelişkili sonuçlar verilirken alkol bağımlılarında serum homosistein düzeylerinin normal populasyona oranla daha yüksek olduğu bilinmektedir. Alkol bağımlısı hastalarda görülen alkol yoksunluğunun klinik belirtileri NMDA (N-metil-D-aspartat) reseptörlerinin aşırı uyarımıyla açıklanmaktadır. Homosistein düzeyinin artması NMDA reseptörlerine postsinaptik düzeyde agonist etki göstererek nöbetlere ve ekzitotoksik nöron ölümüne neden olmaktadır. Postsinaptik uyarı hücre hasarına dolayısıyla çeşitli klinik görünümlere neden olmaktadır. Alkol bağımlılarında özellikle kalp hastalıkları ve serebrovasküler hastalıkların sıklığının artmış olduğu belirtilmiştir ve bu durum folat yetersizliği nedeniyle yükselmiş plazma homosistein seviyesi ile ilişkilendirilmiştir. Hiperhomosisteineminin alkol dışı psikiyatrik hastalıklarla ilişkisi ile ilgili çalışmalar mevcuttur. Alkol bağımlılığı ile diğer psikiyatrik hastalıkların sık birlikteliği göz önüne alınırsa bu birliktelikte hiperhomosisteineminin rolünü araştıran çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır. Bu yazıda homosistein ile alkol kullanımı ilişkisinin ilk kez bildirildiği 1985'den günümüze kadar olan literatür PubMed veri tabanı kullanılarak araştırılmış ve elde edilen makaleler ışığında alkol kullanımı ile homosisteinin ilişkisi gözden geçirilmiştir.
