Proteomic profiling of experimental acute alcohol intoxication reveals FGF21 as a specific ethanol-induced hormone
Background: The effects of acute alcohol intoxication on the human plasma proteome are still largely unexplored. Gaining insights into this relationship could identify factors that are influenced by and influence alcohol consumption. Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21), a hormone produced by the liver and associated with alcohol preferences, is currently undergoing Phase 2 clinical trials for…
