Exploring Phosphatidylethanol Cutoffs for Self-Reported Unhealthy Alcohol Use: An International Multi-Site Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesAlcohol Clin Exp Res (Hoboken)
Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) is a biomarker that quantifies total drinking over the past 2–4 weeks, but PEth cutoffs for unhealthy drinking have not been well‐examined. Using self‐report as the reference standard, we estimated PEth cutoffs in a multinational sample and found substantial variability in cutoffs by region and by some other characteristics ...

Phosphatidylethanol blood analysis

open access: yesAnnales de Biologie Clinique, 2019
This article aims to place the phosphatidylethanol (PEth) blood test in the detection area of ethanol consumption causing alcohol-related disorders, to present the current methods of analysis, data on interpretation, some practical applications and the prospects of use of this biomarker. PEth is a minor metabolite of ethanol.

Assessing the sensitivity and specificity of phosphatidylethanol (PEth) cutoffs to identify alcohol exposed pregnancies

open access: yesCurrent Research in Toxicology, 2023
In the literature on alcohol use biomarkers, there has been debate as to what a valid and/or utilitarian cut off level should be for various research applications.

Phosphatidylethanol in Maternal or Neonatal Blood to Detect Alcohol Exposure during Pregnancy: A Systematic Review

open access: yesLife, 2022
Background: Alcohol consumption during pregnancy, even at low doses, may damage the fetus. Pregnant women tend to underreport their alcohol consumption generating the need for sensitive and specific biomarkers, among which PEth has emerged due to its ...

Thermotropic properties of phosphatidylethanols

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1996
Phosphatidylethanol is formed when ethanol substitutes in the transphosphatidylation reaction catalyzed by phospholipase D. The structural and thermotropic properties of dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanol and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanol have been studied using differential scanning calorimetry, fluorescence spectroscopy, and 31P nuclear magnetic ...

Phosphatidylethanol affects inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels in NG108-15 neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid cells

open access: yes, 1993
Phosphatidylethanol is formed by phospholipase D in animal cells exposed to ethanol. Previous reports have demonstrated that the degradation of phosphatidylethanol is slow, indicating that this lipid may be present in the cells after ethanol itself has ...

Biomolecules and Biomarkers Used in Diagnosis of Alcohol Drinking and in Monitoring Therapeutic Interventions

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2015
Background: The quantitative, measurable detection of drinking is important for the successful treatment of alcohol misuse in transplantation of patients with alcohol disorders, people living with human immunodeficiency virus that need to adhere to ...

Mixed-methods trial of a phosphatidylethanol-based contingency management intervention to initiate and maintain alcohol abstinence in formerly homeless adults with alcohol use disorders

open access: yesContemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 2021
Background: Contingency management (CM) is an intervention where incentives are provided in exchange for biochemically confirmed alcohol abstinence.

Phosphatidylethanol and Alcohol Consumption in Reproductive Age Women [PDF]

open access: yesAlcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2010
Background:  Fetal alcohol disorders are preventable, but self‐reported alcohol consumption can be misleading and impede effective treatment. Biomarkers represent an alternative method for assessing alcohol use, and this study evaluated the relationship between blood phosphatidylethanol (PEth) and alcohol use in a sample of reproductive age women ...

Phosphatidylethanol in steatotic liver disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hepatology
Steatotic liver disease (SLD) encompasses metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), alcohol-related liver disease (ALD), and their combination (MetALD). Distinguishing these subclasses relies on accurately assessing current alcohol intake, particularly as subclass-specific drug therapies become available.
