Protective vascular and cardiac effects of inducible nitric oxide synthase in mice with hyperhomocysteinemia. [PDF]
Diet-induced hyperhomocysteinemia produces endothelial and cardiac dysfunction and promotes thrombosis through a mechanism proposed to involve oxidative stress.

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.

Genetic and Metabolic Markers for Cognition: The Interplay of Hyperhomocysteinemia and ApoE Genotype [PDF]
Abstract Background The presence of ApoE4 allele is known to be the most important genetic risk factor for Late Onset Alzheimer's Disease (LOAD). Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), a cardiovascular risk factor, is also being extensively studied for its role in increasing the risk of cognitive decline in the elderly.

Hyperhomocysteinemia induced by excessive methionine intake promotes rupture of cerebral aneurysms in ovariectomized rats. [PDF]
BackgroundHyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) is associated with inflammation and a rise in the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in the vascular wall.

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 ...

ADMA and hyperhomocysteinemia [PDF]
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and stroke. Like many other cardiovascular risk factors, hyperhomocysteinemia produces endothelial dysfunction due to impaired bioavailability of endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO).
