The concentration of homocysteine-derived disulfides in human coronary artery [PDF]
*Background* Based on previous findings, we have estimated that, in injured coronary artery tissue, the low molecular weight disulfides homocystine and cysteine-homocysteine, otherwise identified as oxidized homocysteine equivalents (OHcyE ...

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and homocysteine levels in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid [PDF]
Background: There is evidence that homocysteine contributes to various neurodegenerative disorders. Objective: To assess the values of homocysteine in patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in both cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma.
