Decrease of disease‐related metabolites upon fasting in a hemizygous knock‐in mouse model (Mut‐ko/ki) of methylmalonic aciduria

JIMD Reports, 2021
Methylmalonyl‐CoA mutase (MMUT) is part of the propionyl‐CoA catabolic pathway, responsible for the breakdown of branched‐chain amino acids, odd‐chain fatty acids and the side‐chain of cholesterol.

The relationship between exacerbated diabetic peripheral neuropathy and metformin treatment in type 2 diabetes mellitus

Scientific Reports, 2021
Metformin-treated diabetics (MTD) showed a decrease in cobalamin, a rise in homocysteine, and methylmalonic acid, leading to accentuated diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). This study aimed to determine whether or not metformin is a risk factor for DPN.

Homocysteine as a potential biochemical marker for depression in elderly stroke survivors

Food & Nutrition Research, 2012
Background: Elderly stroke survivors have been reported to be at risk of malnutrition and depression. Vitamin B-related metabolites such as methylmalonic acid and homocysteine have been implicated in depression.

Vitamin B(12) deficiency stimulates osteoclastogenesis via increased homocysteine and methylmalonic acid [PDF]

, 2009
The risk of nutrient deficiencies increases with age in our modern Western society, and vitamin B(12) deficiency is especially prevalent in the elderly and causes increased homocysteine (Hcy) and methylmalonic acid (MMA) levels.
