Expression of the Cystathionine β Synthase (CBS) Gene During Mouse Development and Immunolocalization in Adult Brain
1 Mar 2003
Abstract excerpt
Hyperhomocysteinemia, caused by a lack of cystathionine beta synthase (CBS), leads to elevated plasma concentrations of homocysteine. This is a common risk factor for atherosclerosis, stroke, and possibly neurodegenerative diseases. However, the mechanisms that link hyperhomocysteinemia due to CBS deficiency to these diseases are still unknown. Early biochemical studies describe developmental and adult patterns...
