Abstract Dysfunctional one-carbon metabolism identifies vitamins B6, B9, B12, and choline as neuroprotective in glaucoma Glaucoma, characterized by the loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), is a ...

Since homocysteine is a natural part of the body's metabolism, the researchers wanted to investigate metabolic pathways involving homocysteine in both rodents and humans with glaucoma.

Since homocysteine is a natural part of the body's metabolism, the researchers wanted to investigate metabolic pathways involving homocysteine in both rodents and humans with glaucoma.

Aim: The metabolic syndrome is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Elevated plasma homocysteine may cause or result from insulin resistance, and may indicate vascular risk or be actively ...

Homocysteine is an independent, modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. It is an intermediate amino acid formed during the metabolism of methionine. Plasma homocysteine is normally ≤ ...

Hyperhomocysteinemia is an established risk factor for arterial as well as venous thromboembolism. Individuals with severe hyperhomocysteinemia caused by inherited genetic defects in homocysteine ...

Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid derived from the metabolism of methionine, an essential amino acid, and is metabolized by one of two pathways: remethylation or transsulfuration.
