The resulting enzyme is thermolabile and in homozygotes, enzymatic activity is depressed to 35% of its usual level. [10] The second variant is a milder one, caused by a homologous 1298C polymorphism. This leads to 68% of the control values of enzyme activity, [10] and it normally does not lead to low serum folate. [9]

Evidence exists linking elevated homocysteine levels with vascular dementia [10] and Alzheimer's disease. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] [ 13 ] There is also evidence that elevated homocysteine levels and low levels of vitamin B6 and B12 are risk factors for mild cognitive impairment and dementia . [ 14 ]
Symptoms, Complete blood count, Peripheral blood smear, Vitamin B12 level, Red cell folate level Macrocytosis is a condition where red blood cells are larger than normal. [ 1 ] These enlarged cells, also known as macrocytes, are defined by a mean corpuscular volume (MCV) that exceeds the upper reference range established by the laboratory and ...
Signs of folate deficiency anemia most of the time are subtle. [4] Anemia (macrocytic, megaloblastic anemia) can be a sign of advanced folate deficiency in adults. [1] Folate deficiency anemia may result in feeling tired, weakness, changes to the color of the skin or hair, open sores on the mouth, shortness of breath, palpitations, lightheadedness, cold hands and feet, headaches, easy bleeding ...
The Methionine Synthase Reductase (MTRR) gene primarily acts in the reductive regeneration of cob(I)alamin (vitamin B12). [10] Cob(I)alamin is a cofactor that maintains activation of the methionine synthase enzyme (MTR) Methionine synthase, linking folate and methionine metabolism. Donation of methyl groups from folate are utilized for cellular ...

Increased homocysteine in folate deficiency; Normal levels of both methylmalonic acid and total homocysteine rule out clinically significant cobalamin deficiency with virtual certainty. [9] Bone marrow (not normally checked in a patient suspected of megaloblastic anemia) shows megaloblastic hyperplasia. [10]
