Nutritional Factors, Homocysteine and C677T Polymorphism of the Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene in Algerian Subjects with Cardiovascular Disease

The C677T variant of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), a key enzyme in the remethylation of homocysteine (HCY) to methionine, is a frequent genetic cause of moderate hyperhomocysteinemia (HHCY) among individuals with cardiovascular disease (CVD), and particularly when combined with other...
