An association of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphism and common carotid atherosclerosis.

Journal of human genetics - 1 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

Plasma homocysteine (Hcy) concentration has been shown to be influenced by a mutation in the gene coding methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR). Although plasma Hcy is related to atherosclerotic disorders, conflicting results have been reported about the association between MTHFR gene polymorphism and sclerotic lesions of the common carotid arteries. The effect of age-gene interaction on carotid arterial...
