摘要
Homocysteine is a sensitive marker of folate and vitamin B12 deficiency. Numerous studies have confirmed the association between folate deficiency and depression. It is not completely understood whether homocysteine is solely a marker for folate deficiency or if it may play a more direct role in the expression of mood disorders. This review describes the biochemical, neurochemical and clinical correlations of folate deficiency and hyperhomocysteinemia in relation to depression. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
