Homocystine is an amino acid that is produced when the body breaks down methionine, an essential amino acid. Elevated levels of homocystine in the blood can be a sign of a genetic disorder called homocystinuria, or it can be caused by a lack of certain vitamins, such as folate, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12. Homocystine can damage blood vessels, increase the risk of blood clots, and contribute to heart disease, stroke, and other health problems. High levels of homocystine have also been linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. Homocystine is studied because it is a potential biomarker for cardiovascular disease and other health problems. Understanding the role of homocystine in these diseases could lead to new ways to prevent and treat them.'

Deficiency, Folic Acid [description not available] | 0 | 5.07 | 7 | 0 |
Folic Acid Deficiency A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of FOLIC ACID in the diet. Many plant and animal tissues contain folic acid, abundant in green leafy vegetables, yeast, liver, and mushrooms but destroyed by long-term cooking. Alcohol interferes with its intermediate metabolism and absorption. Folic acid deficiency may develop in long-term anticonvulsant therapy or with use of oral contraceptives. This deficiency causes anemia, macrocytic anemia, and megaloblastic anemia. It is indistinguishable from vitamin B 12 deficiency in peripheral blood and bone marrow findings, but the neurologic lesions seen in B 12 deficiency do not occur.
