Numerous case-control studies on the association between polymorphisms of key genes involved in methionine remethylation [methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) and methionine synthase (MS)] and the susceptibility of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical cancer have provided inconclusive results.
The effects of polymorphisms in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), methionine synthase (MTR), and methionine synthase reductase (MTRR) on the risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer in Korean women.
We conducted a study to examine associations between polymorphisms in folate pathway coenzymes (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase [MTHFR] and methionine synthase [MS]) and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2 or 3 in a population exposed to folic acid by the food fortification program in the United States.
