Plasma homocysteine concentration is decreased by dietary intervention.
High plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) concentration is reported to be a risk factor for vascular diseases. We investigated the extent to which serum folate and plasma tHcy respond to a high intake of natural folate from food. Thirty-seven healthy females volunteered t o participate in a crossover dietary intervention. The study included a baseline period and two 5-week diet periods (low- and hi...

متن کاملElevated Plasma Homocysteine Concentration in Opium-Addicted Individuals
Background: Although the triggering role of both opium use and elevated plasma homocysteine level for progressing atherosclerosis and, therefore, appearing coronary heart disease has been clearly determined, no study are available with respect to the relation between these to risk profiles. In the present study and for the first time, we hypothesized that the opium addiction can be potentially ...
متن کاملPlasma homocysteine is regulated by phospholipid methylation.
Mild hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Homocysteine, a non-protein amino acid, is formed from S-adenosylhomocysteine and partially secreted into plasma. A potential source for homocysteine is methylation of the lipid phosphatidylethanolamine to phosphatidylcholine by phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase in the liver. We show that mice that la...
متن کاملEffect of dietary soybean protein level on the plasma homocysteine concentration in rats.
There was an inverse correlation between the plasma homocysteine concentration and dietary protein level or protein intake when a soybean protein isolate (SPI) was used as a protein source for rats. The hepatic cystathionine beta-synthase activity increased in response to the dietary SPI level. The results suggest that a high-protein diet might be an effective means to lower the plasma homocyst...
