Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic polymorphisms in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and transcobalamin (TC) genes influence homocysteine metabolism which in turn may influence the risk of spontaneous abortion. It was hypothesized that there may be a significant interaction between MTHFR and TC genotypes which affects the pathogenesis of spontaneous abortion. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 76 fetal tissue...
