Consumption of alcohol as the genes

The presence or absence of a gene could be the explanation why some people have a high tolerance to alcohol, while others are only smell marean a glass of whiskey. Japanese researchers have recently confirmed that the absence of a portion of genetic material inherited-called "Fyn" is responsible for that rodents are hypersensitive to the hypnotic effects of alcohol, or which results in the classic box borrachera.

Subjected to the same consumption of alcohol, the mice with the gene did not show any change, while those who do not inherit from their parents, showed absolute drunkenness that lasted hours. The researchers believe that this genetic background might also verified between nsosotros: it is equivalent to the search of Fyn in human chromosomes, which would detect, from childhood to the future "drunk" and prevented the matter.
