Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine formic acidemia: toxicity of methanol in humans is correlated with formate accumulation as a result of low rates of formate oxidation, which is in vivo dependent on enzyme activity and on hepatic tetrahydrofolate levels Homo sapiens
medicine methanol-induced toxicity in Müller cells of the retina, role of 10-FDH in formate intoxination both as a protectant and as a toxicity-provoking element Homo sapiens
