Polymorphisms C677T and A1298C of Gene: Homocysteine Levels and Prothrombotic Biomarkers in Coronary and Pulmonary Thromboembolic Disease

The activity of the enzyme methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) determines homocysteine (Hcy) levels, and polymorphisms in its gene affect the activity of the enzyme. Changes in the enzyme’s activity may lead to a higher susceptibility to develop arterial and venous thromboembolic disease. Th...
