## Abstract Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (__MTHFR__), a key enzyme in folate metabolism, has been implicated in cancer risk. In the present study we used a melting curve analysis to investigate the association of the common __MTHFR__ C677 T polymorphism with lymphoproliferative diseases. Pat
## Abstract ## Objective Migraine with aura is associated with increased risk of stroke. The MTHFR C677T genotype has been associated with increased risk of migraine in selected clinical samples and with elevated homocysteine, a risk factor for stroke. We assessed the association of the MTHFR C677
## Abstract Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is a vital enzyme catalyzing the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) linked reduction of 5,10‐methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5‐methylenetetrahydrofolate, which serves as cofactor in methylation of homocysteine to methionine. Thre
