Molecular and Biochemical Aspects of Homocysteine in Cardiovascular Diseases
Markedly or mildly elevated circulating homocysteine concentrations are associated with increased risk of vascular occlusion. Here we review possible mechanisms that mediate these effects. Inborn errors of homocysteine metabolism result in markedly elevated plasma homocysteine (200–300 μmol/L) and t...
