methylmalonic acid and Anemia

methylmalonic acid has been researched along with Anemia in 14 studies

Methylmalonic Acid: A malonic acid derivative which is a vital intermediate in the metabolism of fat and protein. Abnormalities in methylmalonic acid metabolism lead to methylmalonic aciduria. This metabolic disease is attributed to a block in the enzymatic conversion of methylmalonyl CoA to succinyl CoA.
methylmalonic acid : A dicarboxylic acid that is malonic acid in which one of the methylene hydrogens is substituted by a methyl group.

Anemia: A reduction in the number of circulating ERYTHROCYTES or in the quantity of HEMOGLOBIN.

"We attempted to attribute associations that we previously found between higher folate status and anemia and cognitive test performance to circulating unmetabolized folic acid or 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MeTHF)."7.76Circulating unmetabolized folic acid and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate in relation to anemia, macrocytosis, and cognitive test performance in American seniors. ( Jacques, PF; Morris, MS; Rosenberg, IH; Selhub, J, 2010)
"Subtle cobalamin deficiency states, where low serum cobalamin levels are not accompanied by megaloblastic anemia or malabsorption of free cobalamin, often display metabolic evidence of cellular depletion as shown by the deoxyuridine suppression test."7.68Reversal by cobalamin therapy of minimal defects in the deoxyuridine suppression test in patients without anemia: further evidence for a subtle metabolic cobalamin deficiency.

Case report and in vitro studies. ( Blum, D; Clercx, A; Corazza, F; Fondu, P; Mardens, Y, 1996)

( Carmel, R, 1992)
" Characteristic features in such patients included paresthesia, sensory loss, ataxia, dementia, and psychiatric disorders; longstanding neurologic symptoms without anemia; normal white-cell and platelet counts and serum bilirubin and lactate dehydrogenase levels; and markedly elevated serum concentrations of methylmalonic acid and total homocysteine."3.67Neuropsychiatric disorders caused by cobalamin deficiency in the absence of anemia or macrocytosis.

"Methylmalonic aciduria (MMA) is a common one of the congenital disorders of organic acids metabolism."2.73[Clinical studies on fifty-seven Chinese patients with combined methylmalonic aciduria and homocysteinemia].
