Exogenous folates stimulate growth and budding of Candida glabrata
Microbial Cell, 2015 Folate, vitamin B9, is well recognized as being essential for cell growth. The utilization of folate is common to all cells, but the source of it may be quite different. For example, mammalian cells depend on exogenous uptake of folates, while

Metabolism and Handling of Folates in the Mammal Especially Man [PDF]
The metabolism of oral administered folates and their handling has been studied in humans. Aseptic addition methods of microbiological assay with L.casei, S.faecalis, P.cerevisiae and bioautographic techniques were employed in investigations of serum and

Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2004 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]
Clinical Science, 1973 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 ...

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2013 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.

Interplay among the Variants of One Carbon Metabolism, Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Polymorphisms and Lung Cancer [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021 Introduction: Folates perform an integral task in DNA synthesis, methylationand repair. Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) potrays a key part in the metabolism of folate and regulates the equilibrium between the various forms of folate for ...
