To define severe MTHFR deficiency, methionine, homocysteine, MTHFR enzyme activity in fibroblasts, or mutations (in the MTHFR gene) had to be described as well as the effect of treatment (survival and/or psychomot...
Analyses of circulating B vitamins, homocysteine and cotinine, and genotyping of the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene (NCBI Entrez Gene 4524) 677C>T single-nucleotide polymorphism were performed at the laboratory of Bevital AS, Bergen, Norway, by published methods.17-20...
[82]. Similarly, the benefits of folate supplementation on negative symptoms were only revealed once the sample was sub-grouped by genotype; those patients who had at least one copy of the low-functioning variant of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene showed a ...
150 Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), a key enzyme for folic acid metabolism, inhibits TRC8-mediated HMOX1 ubiquitination, thereby blocking ferroptosis and promoting the growth of ovarian cancer (OC) cells.151 The E3 ubiquitin ligase 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl reductase (HRD1) exhibits ...
B12 deficiency is significantly underdiagnosed for two reasons. First, it’s not routinely tested by most physicians. Second, the low end of the laboratory reference range is too low. This is why most studies underestimate true levels of deficiency. Many deficient people have so-called “normal”...
What happens is because of MTHFR, there are not enough methyl groups, so you can’t detoxify a lot of chemicals. The job of glutathione becomes extremely difficult, and the need for it increases dramatically. Even though your body can produce, it cannot keep up with the demand. If the ...

It is a far inferior to Methylcobalamin B12, for many reasons, and, if you happen to have the MTHFR Gene, using cyanocobalamin could be devastating.The Right Dose is the Key to Vitamin B12 Deficiency TreatmentGetting the right KIND of vitamin B12 is just the first step. As I said earlier...
No activated protein C resistance, elevated factor VIII level, factor V Leiden, PT 20210 A allele or heparin cofactor II deficiency was found in the present study. Homozygous MTHFR 677 C-->T gene mutation was found in 7 patients (14%); one of them also had a plasminogen deficiency. No ...
Diabetic macular edema (DME), a serious eye complication caused primarily by hyperglycemia, is one of the major causes of blindness. DME, which is characterized by cystic retinal thickening or lipid deposition, is prone to relapse after successful treatm
