Homocysteine in the blood creates a hypercoagulable state. Therefore, all the complications of homocysteinemia have to do with the damage that can be caused by excess clotting: ie thromboembolic nasties such as CVA, DVT, MI, etc. In the blood homocysteine also causes megaloblastic anemia. Now, medicosis perfectionalis, I'm not sure if you wanted the non-blood complications, but I'll go ahead and give those. Excess homocysteine can deposit in the eyes (causing myopia and ectopia lentis) the bones (causing brittleness and deformities) and the brain (causing intellectual impairment). But if your homocysteinemia is temporary due to a folate deficiency, it should not get so bad that your eyes, brain, and bones are affected. That happens in babies with the genetic defect.

[@martinkhashihiri4825]

Folate deficiency leads to homocysteinaemia. Homocysteinaemia causes hypercoagulable states and thrimboembolitic nastis, Right? Then the same folate deficiency causes pancytopenia due to ineffective Haemopoiesis. This means we have thrombocytopenia due to pancytopenia, leading to increased bleeding due to defective clot formation. Now tell me, does folate deficiency cause hypercoagulable or hypocoagulable states?

[@user-gp9cc7up9l]

⁠​⁠@@martinkhashihiri4825thrombocytopenia doesn’t stop blood from clotting in hypercoagulable state. In hypercoagulation you just need a little push from platelets to start clotting, you don’t need a lot of them. The same thing happens in lupus with APS: there is thrombocytopenia and still hypercoagulable state.

How does the monoglutamate in the GI convert to THF in the blood?

[@fluffyberry2222]

HOMOCYSTEINE: Vit B12: homocysteine and methylmalonic acid are both raised B9: homocysteine levels are elevated but methylmalonic acid levels are normal Both used in conversion of homocysteine to methionine as part of DNA synthesis METHYLMALONIC ACID: VitB12 (NOT B9) is required in odd-chain fatty acid synthesis where it acts as a co-factor in the conversion of methylmalonyl coenzyme A to succinyl coenzyme A VitB12 Def gives neurological symptoms Propionyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA are dangerous in high amounts because these odd chain fatty acids will accumulate and incorporate into the myelin of the neurons in the central and peripheral nervous systems, making myelination unstable. The conversion of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA is catalyzed by methylmalonyl-CoA mutase which requires vitamin B12 as a cofactor. Lack of vitamin B12 thus leads to the build-up of methylmalonyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA (a precursor of methylmalonyl CoA) in the neuronal lipids. This is the reason why B12 deficiency is associated with neurologic complications.

Folate doesn't worsen neuropathy. If a patient has both vitamin B12 deficiency AND folate deficiency, then supplementing folate alone will mask the symptoms of anemia, and if the doctor forgets to supplement B12, then the neurological symptoms may worsen because they are not being addressed.
