Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism and childhood stroke.

Pediatric neurology - 1 Oct 2009

Morita Denise C, Donaldson Amy, Butterfield Russell J, Benedict Susan L, Bale James F

Abstract excerpt

Genotyping for the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR) has been recommended for part of the evaluation for underlying prothrombotic state in childhood stroke; however, studies are inconclusive regarding the role of this gene and also the role of hyperhomocysteinemia, which is the putative mechanism by which MTHFR polymorphism is related to stroke. The prevalence of MTHFR polymorphism in childhood...
