Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: We investigated the roles of age, vitamin B(12) markers, and the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism as determinants of folate forms in serum. METHODS: We measured the serum concentrations of (6S)-5-CH(3)-H(4)folate, (6S)-H(4)folate, (6S)-5-HCO-H(4)folate, (6R)-5,10-CH(+)-H(4)folate, and folic acid in 146 non-supplemented older participants (median age 74 years). The...
