Effect of Combination Folic Acid, Vitamin B6 , and Vitamin B12 Supplementation on Fracture Risk in Women: A Randomized, Controlled Trial. [PDF]
Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated an association of elevated plasma homocysteine levels with greater bone resorption and fracture risk. Vitamins B12 , B6 , and folic acid are cofactors in homocysteine metabolism, and supplementation with B vitamins

Rapid healing of a patient with dramatic subacute combined degeneration of spinal cord: a case report [PDF]
Background: Prevalence of cobalamin deficiency is high especially in older patients and an immediate therapy start is necessary to prevent irreversible neurological damages. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of cobalamin deficiency is difficult and at present,

Homocysteine and familial longevity: the Leiden Longevity Study.
Homocysteine concentrations are a read-out of methionine metabolism and have been related to changes in lifespan in animal models. In humans, high homocysteine concentrations are an important predictor of age related disease.

Influence of homocysteine on the physical structure and molecular mobility of elastin network in cultured arteries [PDF]
The thermal and dielectric properties of the elastin network were investigated in arteries cultured with physiological and pathological concentrations of homocysteine, an aminoacid responsible of histological impairments in human arteries.

NF-kappaB activation is associated with homocysteine-induced injury in Neuro2a cells
Background Perinatal exposure to hyperhomocysteinemia might disturb neurogenesis during brain development and growth. Also, high levels of homocysteine trigger neurodegeneration in several experimental models.

Importance of Raised Serum Homocysteine Levels in Ischemic Stroke Patients [PDF]
Background: Around 5.5 million people die from stroke each year, making it the second leading cause of mortality worldwide. Increased homocysteine levels lead to early neurological deteriorations in ischemic stroke and may have an association with other

Evidence Favoring a Positive Feedback Loop for Physiologic Auto Upregulation of hnRNP-E1 during Prolonged Folate Deficiency in Human Placental Cells [PDF]
Background: Previously, we determined that heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein E1 (hnRNP-E1) functions as an intracellular physiologic sensor of folate deficiency.

Increased telomere attrition following renal transplantation: impact of anti-metabolite therapy [PDF]
Background: The uremic milieu exposes chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients to premature ageing processes. The impact of renal replacement therapy (dialysis and renal transplantation [RTx]) or immunosuppressive treatment regimens on ageing biomarkers has
