Snippet: Aldehyde dehydrogenases are a family of enzymes that oxidize aldehydes to carboxylic acids. These enzymes are important in cellular homeostasis during oxidative stress by the elimination of toxic aldehyde by-products from various cellular processes. In osteosarcoma, aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1has been described as a cancer stem cell marker. Its activity has been found to correlate with metastatic potential and the metastatic phenotype. As such, a more complete understanding of aldehyde dehydrogen
Document: Aldehyde dehydrogenases are a family of enzymes that oxidize aldehydes to carboxylic acids. These enzymes are important in cellular homeostasis during oxidative stress by the elimination of toxic aldehyde by-products from various cellular processes. In osteosarcoma, aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1has been described as a cancer stem cell marker. Its activity has been found to correlate with metastatic potential and the metastatic phenotype. As such, a more complete understanding of aldehyde dehydrogenase in osteosarcoma will give us a deeper knowledge of its impact on osteosarcoma metastatic potential. Our hope is that this knowledge can be translated into novel antimetastatic therapeutic strategies and thus improve osteosarcoma prognoses.
