Despite its low incidence, Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease should be considered in patients with persistent lymphadenopathy. Originally thou...
متن کاملGenetics of hyperhomocysteinaemia in cardiovascular disease.
Homocysteine, a sulphur amino acid, is a branch-point intermediate of methionine metabolism. It can be degraded in the transsulphuration pathway to cystathionine, or remethylated to methionine via the remethylation pathway. In both pathways, major genetic defects that cause enzyme deficiencies are associated with very high plasma homocysteine concentrations and excretion of homocystine into the...
