Hyperhomocystinemia in patients with coronary artery disease

Hyperhomocystinemia in patients with coronary artery disease

Hyperhomocystinemia has been related to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease in several studies. The C677T polymorphism for the gene that encodes the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase enzyme (MTHFR) and low plasma folate levels are common causes of hyperhomocystinemia. Due to differences in...
