Folate in autism neurodevelopment [PDF]
Folate (vitamin B9) and vitamin B12 are essential micronutrients for cell growth, DNA synthesis, methylation, and one-carbon metabolism, with particular relevance to early development.

Utilization of cognitive support in episodic free recall as a function of apolipoprotein E and vitamin B12 or folate among adults aged 75 years and older [PDF]
Apolipoprotein E (APOE), vitamin B12, and folate were examined in relation to free recall among 167 community-based older adults. Cognitive support at encoding and retrieval was also taken into account.

Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Reduces Kidney Folate Transporter Expression and Plasma Folate Levels
Acute or chronic kidney disease can cause micronutrient deficiency. Patients with end-stage renal disease, kidney transplantation or on dialysis have reduced circulating levels of folate, an essential B vitamin.

The achievement of optimal folate status to prevent neural-tube defects, and possibly other diseases, is hindered by the well-recognised incomplete bioavailability of the natural folates found in foods compared with the synthetic vitamin, folic acid.

Formylation of Folate as a Step in Physiological Folate Absorption [PDF]
Oral administration of folate analogues to rats is followed by a rise in plasma folate detectable only by micro-biological assay with Lactobacillus casei, suggesting methylation of folate during absorption. When using the everted rat gut technique with folate (PteGlu), dihydrofolate (H 2 ...

One crisis, diverse impacts-Tissue-specificity of folate deficiency-induced circulation defects in zebrafish larvae. [PDF]
Folate (vitamin B9) is an essential nutrient required for cell survival, proliferation, differentiation and therefore embryogenesis. Folate deficiency has been associated with many diseases, including congenital heart diseases and megaloblastic anemia ...

Abstract Findings from experimental studies and animal models led to the hypothesis that folic acid supplementation during pregnancy confers an increased risk of asthma. This review provides a critical examination of current experimental and epidemiologic evidence of a causal association between folate status and asthma.

The influence of methyl donor status on cervical cancer cell behaviour in vitro [PDF]
Epidemiological studies suggest that the availability of methyl-donor nutrients may influence the risk of cervical cancer and of cancer progression. This effect may be mediated by altered DNA instability and aberrant DNA methylation.

Folate Biofortification in Soybean: Challenges and Prospects
Folate deficiency is a significant global health issue that affects millions of people and causes severe adverse effects. Major staple crops, which provide significant amounts of calories, often contain inadequate folate levels.
