Effects of Ethanol on Lipid, Uric Acid, Intermediary, and Drug Metabolism, Including the Pathogenesis of the Alcoholic Fatty Liver

  • Chapter
The Biology of Alcoholism

Abstract

As early as 1918, Feigl described hyperlipemia in association with alcoholism. This original observation has been widely confirmed but it is only recently that the biochemical mechanisms involved have been studied.
