Homocysteine (HCY), a physiological amino acid formed when proteins break down, leads
to a pathological condition called hyperhomocysteinemia (HHCY), when it is over a definite …

Elevated concentration of the homocysteine (Hcy) in human tissues, resulting either from
mutations in genes enconding Hcy-metabolizing enzymes, or from deficiences of folic acid …

Homocysteine (Hcy) is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is generated during methionine
metabolism. It has a physiologic role in DNA metabolism via methylation, a process …

Mild to moderate hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases.
Human studies suggest that homocysteine (Hcy) plays a role in brain damage, cognitive and …

Homocysteine (Hcy) has been implicated as a risk factor for vascular disease as well as
brain atrophy. There is evidence to implicate Hcy in increased oxidative stress, DNA …

Neurodegenerative diseases are the diseases of the central nervous system with various
aetiology and symptoms. Dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD) …

Homocysteine (Hcy) is a sulfhydryl-containing amino acid, and intermediate metabolite
formed in metabolising methionine (Met) to cysteine (Cys); defective Met metabolism can …

Homocysteine (Hcy) is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is generated during methionine
metabolism. Physiologic Hcy levels are determined primarily by dietary intake and vitamin …

Homocysteine (Hcy) is a sulfur-containing amino acid generated during methionine
metabolism, accumulation of which may be caused by genetic defects or the deficit of …

Homocysteine is a non-proteinogenic sulfhydryl-containing amino acid derived from
methionine and is a homologue of cysteine. The concentration of homocysteine is regulated …
