Target Details for ALDH1A1

Target: ALDH1A1 (Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1 Family, Member A1 (ALDH1A1))

Alternative Name: ALDH1

Background: ALDH1A1 is an aldehyde dehydrogenase able to oxidize a wide variety of aliphatic aldehydes (retinaldehyde, acetaldehyde, etc.) to the corresponding carboxylic acids (retinoic acid, acetic acid, etc.). ALDH1A1 (also known as RALDH1, ALDH1, or AHD2) is highly expressed in the dorsal retina, ventral midbrain (dopaminergic neurons), and hematopoietic stem cells. ALDH1A1 is involved in retinoic acid (RA) synthesis during vertebrate embryogenesis. ALDH1A1 is first detected at E9.0-E10.5 in cranial tissues (ventral mesencephalon, dorsal retina, thymic primordia, optic vesicles) and in the mesonephros. ALDH1A1 is also of interest in Parkinson's Disease (PD) being expressed in the the A9 dopaminergic (DA) neuronal group projecting to the dorsal striatum, this is the most vulnerable site in PD (Chung et al, 2005). Some studies also identify ALDH1A1 as a marker of cancer stem cells. Studies of breast cancer tissues showed that those that expressed a form of ALDH1A1 had the worst outcomes.Synonyms: ALDC, ALDH-E1, ALDH1A1, ALHDII, Aldehyde dehydrogenase cytosolic, Aldehyde dehydrogenase family 1 member A1, PUMB1, RALDH1, Retinal dehydrogenase 1
