MTHFR 677C>T (rs1801133) variant is associated with homocysteinemia but not with clinical severity in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease
Abstract:Peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) is characterized by atherosclerotic lesions involving non-cardiac and non-cerebral arteries and disturbances in the axial vessels and at the microcirculatory level, which may lead to critical ischemia of lower limbs. Conflicting results have been reported about the role of the MTHFR 677 C > G (rs1801133) variant on the susceptibility to PAOD. The aim was to evaluate the association between the MTHFR 677C > T variant with susceptibility and severity of PAOD and… Show more
