Scientific Reports, 2017 Maternal folate deficiency is linked to restricted fetal growth, however the underlying mechanisms remain to be established. Here we tested the hypothesis that mTOR functions as a folate sensor in vivo in mice and that maternal folate deficiency inhibits

Folate deprivation induces neurodegeneration: roles of oxidative stress and increased homocysteine
Neurobiology of Disease, 2003 Clinical studies suggest a relationship between folate deficiency and neurological and disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). To investigate mechanisms underlying this association, we examined the consequences of folate deprivation on neuronal ...

Folate determination in livers of different animal species
Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2020 The liver is the main storage organ for folate. In the study the folate content in chicken, turkey, pig, and beef livers was evaluated with the use of the HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) method which allowed various folate vitamers ...

Folate and Inflammation – links between folate and features of inflammatory conditions
Journal of Nutrition & Intermediary Metabolism, 2019 Folate serves as a cofactor for one-carbon (1C) transfer reactions. These reactions are involved in the synthesis of DNA nucleotides, the amino acid methionine, and in the regulation of homocysteine (Hcy) levels.

Folate (vitamin B9) content analysis in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022 Vitamin B9, particularly folic acid, is an essential molecule for human health. Wheat flour is one of the major sources of calorie intake by humans. The selection of folate-rich genotypes in wheat breeding can enhance the natural folate value in the ...

Identification of QTLs Underlying Folate Content in Milled Rice
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014 Understanding the genetic mechanism underlying folate biosynthesis and accumulation in rice would be beneficial for breeding high folate content varieties as a cost-effective approach to addressing widespread folate deficiency in developing countries. In
