Abstract excerpt
Cystathionine beta synthase (CBS) is a crucial regulator of plasma concentrations of homocysteine. Severe hyperhomocysteinemia due to CBS deficiency confers diverse clinical manifestations, notably characteristic skeletal abnormalities. To investigate this aspect of hyperhomocysteinemia, we analyzed the skeleton of CBS-deficient mice, a murine model of severe hyperhomocysteinemia. Radiography, Alcian...
