The 5-10 methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase - MTHFR is the main regulatory enzyme of homocysteine metabolism. The accumulation of plasma homocysteine is considered a risk factor for several diseases that are frequent in the population. It is known that reduced activity of MTHFR requires an increased dietary intake of folate to maintain normal folate metabolic pathways and thus there is n…
Impairments in folate and methyl metabolism can result in DNA hypomethylation and abnormal chromosome segregation and folate deficiency has been associated with 17 and 21 aneuploidy in human lymphocytes. Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) plays a crucial role in regulating cellular methylation. Studies have shown that global DNA hypomethylation, a marker of folic acid depletion, …
