A recent study published by Rutgers University researchers in the journal Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental shows that a significant consumption of alcohol may result in changes in the DNA of individuals , which makes them even more willing to drink. Research "(Watch the video)
Researchers have looked at the genes of moderate alcohol consumers, excessive drinkers (and those who drink constantly) and so-called" occasional drinkers "- those who drink a lot of alcohol in a short time.
The conclusion was that the last two groups – excessive consumers and excessive drinkers – had had two genes altered under the influence of alcohol, by a process called methylation.Genetic changes caused by alcohol consumption cause changes in the body's biological clock – Photo: BBC "title =" Genetic changes caused by alcohol consumption result in changes in the body's biological clock – Photo: BBC "src =" date: image / jpeg; base64, / 9j / 4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD / 2wBDAAMCAgMCAgMDAwMEAwMEBQgFBQQEBQoHBwYIDAoMDAsKCwsNDhIQDQ4RDgsLEBYQERMUFRUVDA8XGBYUGBIUFRT / 2wBDAQMEBAU EBQkFBQkUDQsNFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBT / wgARCAAOABkDASIAAhEBAxEB / 8QAFwABAQEBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAUCB EABUBAQEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUE // / // 9oADAMBAAIQAxAAAAHsgKhDadUBMdC 8QAGxAAAgMAAwAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgMAAQQTIzP / 2gAIAQEAAQUC110iuirJ5zQsmpXnrjzAawn / xAAcEQACAgIDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAwIEAAURITH / 2gAIAQMBAT8B1l1aEGEjx3lxodYmyPhOf // EABoRAAIDAQEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEDAAIEBVH / 2gAIAQIBAT8B6mN2hgsryZllSa0M / 8QAHxAAAQMEAwEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQACEhARMUEhInFR / 9oACAEBAAY / Aj6s8o + 0c1lpauhMmW44Tg8g9iRb5qn / xAAcEAACAgMBAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAREhMVGBQWH / 2gAIAQEAAT8h4CMiUqzikLDdm9jBEfLEQRX5OoknQGj + T + KRR // // aAAwDAQACAAMAAAAQvj xAAaEQACAgMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABEQAxIXGx / 9oACAEDAQE / EDJyc08IDolmAWp 8QAGhEBAAIDAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQAhETFx0f // / // aAAgBAgEBPxBfwKPcvs3Chc xAAfEAEAAwACAQUAAAAAAAAAAAABABEhQVExYaGxwfD / 2gAIAQEAAT8QDmflq + 41eVrgZvXrC5Wj2JUR2 VWqI7W1iZ3D36AE2riXV3UMLGQ6JYfJDUotwn6M // Z "/> <img clbad =" content-media__image picture "itemprop =" conten tUrl "alt =" Genetic changes caused by lead from alcohol to changes in the body's biological clock – photo Genetic changes caused by alcohol consumption result in changes in the body 39; body biological clock – Photo: BBC "data-src =" https://s2.glbimg.com/xxyPnheWPeHrym8yQciWqCqMBdc=/0x0:1920×1080/984×0/
Genetic changes caused by the consumption of alcohol lead to an increase in the number of deaths due to alcohol consumption. Changes in the body's biological clock – Photo: BBC
In these groups of people, genetic modifications cause changes in the body's biological clock in the system. stress response and, more importantly, vulnerability to alcohol itself: people start to draw more from the drink when they are stressed. This creates a vicious circle: the more you drink alcohol, the more you need to drink.
"We have found that people who consume too much alcohol are likely to modify their DNA in a way that will make them drink even more," said lead author of the study, Dipak K. Sarkar, lead author of the study.
"This could help explain why alcoholism is such a powerful addiction.This could also contribute to new ways of treating it or preventing people from becoming addicted."
It is hoped that the research will help to create biomarker tests (which are biological indicators, based for example on certain proteins or modified genes), which can predict the risk of each person becoming an excessive consumer. alcohol.
