Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis, even in early childhood. A mutation in genes that code homocysteine metabolism enzymes or deficiency of specific vitamin cofactors may cause hyperhomocysteinemia. Vitamin B complex has been correlated with serum homocysteine levels.

Folate and choline are interconnected metabolically. The MTHFD1 R653Q SNP is a risk factor for birth defects and there are concerns that choline deficiency may interact with this SNP and exacerbate health risks. 80-90% of women do not meet the Adequate Intake (AI) for choline.

Background: Defects in methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 1-like (MTHFD1L) expression have earlier been examined in only a few human cancers.
Objectives: Multi-omics profiling of MTHFD1L as a shared biomarker in distinct subtypes of human cancers.
Methods: In the current study, for the multi-omics analysis of MTHFD1L in 24 major subtypes of human cancers, a comprehensive in silico approach was adopted to mine different open access online databases including UALCAN, Kaplan-Meier (KM) plotter, LOGpc, GEPIA, Human Protein Atlas (HPA), Gene Expression across Normal and Tumor tissue (GENT2), MEXPRESS, cBioportal, STRING, DAVID, TIMER, and Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD).

Carbohydrate can be converted into fat by de novo lipogenesis, a process upregulated in fatty liver disease. Chemically, de novo lipogenesis involves polymerization and reduction of acetyl-CoA, using NADPH as the electron donor. The feedstocks used to generate acetyl-CoA and NADPH in lipogenic tissues remain, however, unclear.

One-carbon units, critical intermediates for cell growth, may be produced by a variety of means, one of which is via the production of formate. Excessive formate accumulation, known as formate overflow and a characteristic of oxidative cancer, has been observed in cancer cells. However, the basis for this high rate of formate production is unknown.
