## Abstract Recent metaβanalyses of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene (__MTHFR__) have suggested association between two of its functional single gene polymorphisms (SNPs; C677T and A1298C) and schizophrenia. Studies have also suggested association between __MTHFR__ C677T and A1298C vari
## Abstract Different lines of evidence indicate that methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (__MTHFR__) functional gene polymorphisms, causative in aberrant folateβhomocysteine metabolism, are associated with increased vulnerability to several heritable developmental disorders. Opposing views are exp
Spina bifida cystica (SB) is one of the most common and disabling of birth defects. Folic acid supplementation in mothers during the periconceptional period has been shown to prevent more than 70% of neural tube defects (NTD) including SB. However, the mechanism is unknown. We tested a series of mul
