Relationship between methionine synthase, methionine synthase reductase genetic polymorphisms and deep vein thrombosis among South Indians

Background: The rationale behind this study was to examine the relationship between polymorphisms in genes that regulate remethylation of homocysteine to methionine, i.e., methionine synthase (MTR A2756G) and methionine synthase reductase (MTRR A66G), and risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in a South Indian cohort (163 DVT cases and 163 controls), as elevated homocysteine has been documented as an independent risk factor for DVT in the same cohort.

Methods: Plasma homocysteine analysis was carried out by reverse phase HPLC...
