Abstract:Background: Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T is a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) that affects the production of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), the active folate that enables the recycling of homocysteine (Hcy) to methionine. Objective: to investigate the association between the MTHFR (C677T) polymorphism and the outcomes of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Methods: A prospective cohort study included 85 infertile women undergoing ICSI treatment at the High Institute of Infert… Show more
