Colon cancer and genetic variation in folate metabolism: the clinical bottom line.

The Journal of nutrition - 1 Nov 2003

Little Julian, Sharp Linda, Duthie Susan, Narayanan Sabrina

Abstract excerpt

So far, evidence for the relation between folate intake and colorectal cancer has been insufficient to lead to specific public health interventions. In principle, data on the relation between genetic variation in folate metabolism and colorectal neoplasia could be used to corroborate the data on the relation between folate intake or status and the disease, strengthening the evidence base for primary prevention....
