متن کاملComparison of homocysteinemia and MTHFR 677CT polymorphism with Framingham Coronary Heart Risk Score.
OBJECTIVE The Framingham Coronary Heart Disease Risk Score is an important clinical tool. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to compare plasma homocysteine levels and polymorphism 677CT MTHFR with this score to determine the utility of these new biomarkers in clinical practice. METHODS Plasma homocysteine levels determined by chemiluminescence and polymorphism 677CT MTHFR, detected by ...

متن کاملHyperhomocysteinemia and MTHFR gene 677 C>T polymorphism: questionable role in female infertility
Background: Homocysteine is an intermediate in methionine metabolism required for the biosynthesis of nucleic acids. Hyperhomocysteinemia affects various organ systems and also has been implicated as a risk factor for infertility. Elevated levels result either from genetic mutations of the enzymes catalyzing the metabolic pathway or deficiency of micronutrients required as co-enzymes for the sa...
