Plasma Homocysteine Levels and Mortality in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]
New England Journal of Medicine, 1997 BACKGROUND Elevated plasma homocysteine levels are a risk factor for coronary heart disease, but the prognostic value of homocysteine levels in patients with established coronary artery disease has not been defined.

Homocysteine and vascular disease
The Lancet, 1999 For more than 20 years, moderately raised concentrations of total homocysteine have been associated with an increased risk of atherothrombotic vascular events but only recently has evidence mounted to suggest that the association may be causal. The association is independent of other factors, it is fairly consistent across many studies, it is strong ...

Homocysteine Metabolism in Pregnancy and Developmental Impacts
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Homocysteine is a metabolite generated by methionine cycle metabolism, comprising the demethylated derivative of methionine. Homocysteine can be metabolised by the transsulphuration pathway to cystathionine, which requires vitamin B6, or can undergo ...

Homocysteine levels correlate with AVSS-RigiScan test parameters in men with erectile dysfunction
Basic and Clinical Andrology, 2023 Background Although elevated homocysteine levels have been shown to affect penile erection, the relationship between homocysteine and erection at the tip or base of the penis has not been extensively studied.

Ability of dietary factors to affect homocysteine levels in mice: a review
Nutrition & Metabolism, 2021 Homocysteine is associated with several diseases, and a series of dietary factors are known to modulate homocysteine levels. As mice are often used as model organisms to study the effects of dietary hyperhomocysteinemia, we collected data about ...

Homocysteine inhibits hepatocyte proliferation via endoplasmic reticulum stress. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Homocysteine is an independent risk factor for coronary, cerebral, and peripheral vascular diseases. Recent studies have shown that levels of homocysteine are elevated in patients with impaired hepatic function, but the precise role of homocysteine in ...

The homocysteine controversy [PDF]
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2010 AbstractMild to moderate hyperhomocysteinemia has been identified as a strong predictor of cardiovascular disease, independent from classical atherothrombotic risk factors. In the last decade, a number of large intervention trials using B vitamins have been performed and have shown no benefit of homocysteine‐lowering therapy in high‐risk patients.
