Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Dnmt1 deficiency, with and without low folate diets, on tumor numbers and DNA methylation in Min mice.

TL;DR: Genetic deficiency in Dnmt1 with or without folate deficiency decreases tumor number in the Apc(Min) mouse model, but this effect may not be mediated by changes in SAM or SAH levels, nor by alterations in global methylation in the pre-neoplastic intestinal tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Betaine rescue of an animal model with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency.

TL;DR: An important role for choline and betaine depletion in the pathogenesis of homocystinuria due to MTHFR deficiency is emphasized, and the dramatic effects of betaine on survival and growth are emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase genotype, age, vitamin B-12, and folate status on plasma homocysteine in children

TL;DR: The data show that in a healthy pediatric population, MTHFR genotype played a significant role in determining homocysteine concentrations in older (>10 y), nutritionally stressed children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oncogenic role of PDK4 in human colon cancer cells

TL;DR: Methylation assessment of PDK4 in the blood may be useful for non-invasive CRC detection and should be considered as a target for development of anticancer strategies and therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Translational control of ornithine aminotransferase. Modulation by initiation factor eIF-4E.

TL;DR: To examine the regulatory mechanisms in these cell lines, nuclear runoff experiments and characterized polysome-associated OAT mRNAs were performed and the nuclear runoff data did not reveal any differences in transcription between the two strains.
