Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND Polymorphisms C677T and A1298C of the MTHFR gene have been implicated in fetal viability. In this study, we determined the allele and genotype frequencies of these polymorphisms in different populations, including spontaneous abortion (SA) fetal tissues, with the objective of evaluating their impact on fetal viability. METHODS 342 samples of fetal tissues, selected from SA occurring during the 1980s,...
