Abstract
The liver plays an important role in the reductive metabolism of steroids. We assumed that the increase of the NADH/NAD+ ratio that is observed during ethanol oxidation would influence this metabolism. A series of studies has therefore been started which aims at the elucidation of steroid reactions that are affected by ethanol metabolism. The investigations are carried out along two main lines: 1. analysis of steroid redox couples in blood and urine before and after ethanol administration and 2. analysis of the incorporation of deuterium into steroids during the metabolism of [1-2H2]-ethanol.
