Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine study on association of factor V-Leiden and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T and A1298C mutations with stroke. MTHFR C677T/C677T and A1298C/A1298C, but not factor V-Leiden, genotypes are associated with stroke. The C677T but not A1298C MTHFR mutation is associated with elevated homocysteine levels in patients and control subjects. In addition to hypertension, the significant predictors for stroke are MTHFR C677T and C677T/C677T and A1298C/A1298C genotypes, together with hyperhomocysteinemia, indicating a synergistic effect of MTHFR mutations with elevated homocysteine and other risk factors in pathogenesis of stroke Homo sapiens
