Source sentences:
text: Acetaldehyde can react with proteins in the body to form both unstable adducts, which are immediately converted into other compounds, and stable adducts, which remain in the cell for a certain length of time.
text: Alcohol dehydrogenase converts alcohol to acetaldehyde, which can react with other proteins in the cell to generate hybrid molecules known as adducts.
text: For example, researchers have found that MDA and acetaldehyde react with proteins in a synergistic manner (Tuma et al. 1996; Tuma 2002).
text: The results of in vivo studies suggest that acetaldehyde can react directly with DNA and proteins to form stable adducts.
text: In addition, acetaldehyde and MDA together can react with proteins to generate a stable MDA–acetaldehyde–protein adduct (MAA) (Tuma et al. 1996; Tuma 2002).
