BACKGROUND
Myocardial infarction (MI) is caused by myocardial necrosis resulting from prolonged ischemia. However, the biological mechanisms underlying MI remain unclear.
METHODS
We evaluated metabolic and lipidomic changes in rat heart tissue from sham and MI at 1h, 1day and 10day after coronary
We investigated the safety and tolerability of betaine in patients with Alzheimer disease (AD). Betaine is an alternative methyl donor, distinct from the folate-and cobalamin-dependent conversion pathway between homocysteine and methionine. Betaine has been used successfully to reduce homocysteine
Over the past few years, a substantial body of evidence has accumulated that indicates hyperhomocysteinemia as a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Hyperhomocysteinemia arises from a lack of key enzymes or vitamins such as methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, vitamin B6, and folate
13 patients with psycho-organic syndrome (POS) and 10 patients with dementia (senile, Alzheimer, multi-infarct) were treated with drugs considered to influence the neuronal turnover of acetylcholine (Phosphatidylcholine, piracetam, S-adenosylmethionine) for 30 days and compared in respect of CSF ACh
Homocystinuria, an inherited disease in which plasma levels of homocysteine are high, was discovered in the sixties and it soon became clear that the affected patients had striking features of generalized atherosclerosis. The most common causes of death were arterial and venous thrombosis, stroke,
Homocysteine, a sulfur-containing amino acid, is a metabolite of the essential amino acid methionine, and exists at a critical biochemical intersection in the methionine cycle - between S-adenosylmethionine, the indispensable ubiquitous methyl donor, and vitamins B12 and folic acid. High blood
BACKGROUND
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for vascular disease and potentially for dementia and depression. The most common cause of elevated homocysteine levels is deficiency of folate or vitamin B(12). However, patients with Parkinson disease (PD) may have elevated homocysteine levels
Exposure to environmental stressors during susceptible windows of development can result in negative health outcomes later in life, a concept known as the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD). There is a growing body of evidence that exposures to metals early in life (in utero and
