5-Aminolevulinic acid synthase-1 (ALAS1) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) are the rate-controlling enzymes for heme biosynthesis and degradation, respectively. Expression of these two genes showed tissue-specific expression pattern at both mRNA and protein levels in selected non-treated rat tissues. In the livers of rats receiving oral ethanol for 10 weeks, ALAS1 mRNA levels were increased by 65%, and the precursor and mature ALAS1 protein levels were increased by 1.8- and 2.3-fold, respectively, while no changes were observed in HO-1 mRNA and protein levels, compared with pair-fed controls. These results provide novel insights into the effects of chronic ethanol consumption on hepatic heme biosynthesis and porphyrias.
