BACKGROUND Folate is an essential nutrient that supports nucleotide synthesis and biological methylation reactions. Diminished folate status results in chromosome breakage and is associated with several diseases, including colorectal cancer. Folate status is also inversely related to plasma homocysteine concentrations -- a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVE We sought to gain fu...
In this report, we have reanalyzed genotyping data in a collection of families from South America based on maternal origin. Genotyping analysis was performed at the Craniofacial Anomalies Research Center at the University of Iowa. These genotypes were derived from genomic DNA samples obtained from blood spots from children born with isolated orofacial clefts in 45 hospitals located in eight cou...
In an ongoing study of structure-function relationships of the murine reduced folate carrier 1 (RFC1), a glutamate to lysine mutation at amino acid 45 was identified in a methotrexate (MTX)-resistant L1210 clonal variant in which MTX and 5-formyltetrahydrofolate (5-CHO-THF) influx was markedly decreased. The characteristics of the mutated carrier, RFC1-E45K, were studied by cDNA transfection in...
Ohnuma et al reported a series of methotrexate-resistant MOLT-3 human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell lines that showed decreasing methotrexate (MTX) uptake as the sublines acquired increasing MTX resistance (Cancer Res 45:1815, 1985). The alteration of MTX uptake kinetics in these cells, the intermediately resistant MOLT-3/MTX200 and the highly resistant MOLT-3/MTX10,000 cell lines, w...
Objective: Neural tube defect (NTD) incidence could be effectively reduced by folic acid supplementation before and during pregnancy. We studied single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) involved in folate metabolism to explore genetic susceptibility to NTD. We studied the association between 12 SNPs involved in 11 folate metabolism genes and NTDs. Methods: We enrolled 76 children with NTD and 188...
Low dietary folate intake is associated with an increased risk for colon cancer; however, relevant genetic animal models are lacking. We therefore investigated the effect of targeted ablation of two folate transport genes, folate binding protein 1 (Folbp1) and reduced folate carrier 1 (RFC1), on folate homeostasis to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of folate action on colonocyte cell prolife...
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders with complex genetic etiology. Recent studies have indicated that children with ASD may have altered folate or methionine metabolism, suggesting that the folate-methionine cycle may play a key role in the etiology of ASD. SLC19A1, also referred to as reduced folate carrier 1 (RFC1), is a member of the solute carrier group...
Background & Aims : arsenic is an important environmental toxicant which is usually found in drinking water. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of arsenic on development of visual system on mouse embryos. Materials & Methods : In this study 30 albino mice were used in controls and experimental groups (N=15). The experimental group received 40 mg/kg intraperitoneally sodium ...
Several reports demonstrated that maternal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure at middle gestational stage caused neural tube defects (NTDs). This study investigated the effects of supplementation with vitamin D3 (VitD3) during pregnancy on LPS-induced NTDs. Pregnant mice except controls were ip injected with LPS (25 μg/kg) daily from gestational day (GD)8 to GD12. In LPS+VitD3 group, pregnant mi...
