Abstract Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) models play a critical role in understanding the cognitive impairments associated with β‐amyloid and/or tau accumulation. Additionally, sex differences in tau pathology have been linked to disparities in disease progression in clinical settings, which may limit the translational relevance of current models ...

Effect of hyperhomocysteinemia on a murine model of smoke-induced pulmonary emphysema
Hyperhomocysteinemia was reported to enhance endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and subsequent apoptosis in several cells. However, the precise mechanisms of smoking susceptibility associated with hyperhomocysteinemia has not been fully elucidated.

Deficiency of superoxide dismutase promotes cerebral vascular hypertrophy and vascular dysfunction in hyperhomocysteinemia. [PDF]
There is an emerging consensus that hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for cerebral vascular disease and that homocysteine-lowering therapy protects from ischemic stroke.

Evaluation of platelet distribution width in hypertension with hyperhomocysteinemia
An increased platelet distribution width (PDW) value has been found in various cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between the PDW and hypertension with hyperhomocysteinemia in an elderly cohort.

Homocysteine in cerebrovascular disease: An independent risk factor for subcortical vascular encephalopathy [PDF]
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for obstructive large-vessel disease. Here, we studied plasma concentrations of homocysteine and vitamins in patients suffering from subcortical vascular encephalopathy (SVE), a cerebral small-vessel disease leading ...

Hyperhomocysteinemia is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, especially in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus - A population-based [PDF]
A high serum total homocysteine (tHcy) level is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Because it is not known whether the strength of the association between hyperhomocysteinemia and cardiovascular disease is similar for peripheral ...
