The homocysteine controversy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

NF-kappaB activation is associated with homocysteine-induced injury in Neuro2a cells

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2008
Background Perinatal exposure to hyperhomocysteinemia might disturb neurogenesis during brain development and growth. Also, high levels of homocysteine trigger neurodegeneration in several experimental models.

Association Between Homocysteine and Vascular Calcification Incidence, Prevalence, and Progression in the MESA Cohort

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background While elevated homocysteine has been associated with calcification in several studies, its importance as a cardiovascular risk factor remains unclear.

Potential Antioxidative Activity of Homocysteine in Erythrocytes under Oxidative Stress

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Homocysteine is an amino acid containing a free sulfhydryl group, making it probably contribute to the antioxidative capacity in the body. We recently found that plasma total homocysteine (total-Hcy) concentration increased with time when whole blood ...

Homocysteine homeostasis and betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase expression in the brain of hibernating bats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Elevated homocysteine is an important risk factor that increases cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative disease morbidity. In mammals, B vitamin supplementation can reduce homocysteine levels.

An Enzymatic Platform for Late‐Stage (Radio)isotope Labelling of Oligonucleotides With Methyltransferases

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
State‐of‐the‐art synthesis of radiolabelled oligonucleotides involves multi‐step synthesis with high costs, extended timelines and significant radioactive waste generation. Herein, a dual‐methyltransferase platform enables late‐stage, site‐specific labelling, overcoming these limitations through reduced costs, faster turnaround and minimal radioactive ...

Proteome‐Wide Target Identification Using Reactive Metallo‐Scaffolds (r‐mS): A Platform for Metallodrug Discovery

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Re‐envisioning the Ligandable Proteome: Reactive Metallo‐Scaffolds (r‐mS) combine non‐covalent protein engagement by a metallo‐scaffold with covalent cysteine capture through a tethered chloroacetamide warhead. Chemoproteomic profiling reveals unique enzyme engagement including ligases, kinases and methyltransferases, highlighting opportunities for ...

The Association between Homocysteine, Arterial Stiffness and Executive Function Middle-age and Older Women

open access: yesArtery Research, 2020
Age-related decreases in executive function and an increase in arterial stiffness and plasma homocysteine levels are related to the risk of dementia. However, the association between executive function, arterial stiffness, and homocysteine levels remains
