Hyperhomocysteinemia is associated with arterial stiffness, but underlying pathophysiological mechanisms explaining this association are to be revealed. This study was aimed to explore two potential pathways concerning the one-carbon metabolism. A potential causal effect of homocysteine was explored using a genetic risk score reflecting an individual's risk of having a long-term elevated plasma homocysteine...
High plasma homocysteine levels have been associated with incident osteoporotic fractures, but the mechanisms underlying this association are still unknown. It has been hypothesized that homocysteine might interfere with collagen cross-linking in bone, thereby weakening bone structure. Therefore, we wanted to investigate whether plasma homocysteine levels are associated with bone quality parameters,...
In patients with a carcinoid syndrome and neuroendocrine tumors of the digestive tract (carcinoids), elevated circulating serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) levels can be demonstrated. It can be hypothesized that bone metabolism will be affected in these patients, since serotonin receptors are expressed on bone cells and serotonin effects on bone have been demonstrated. However, to date, no data...
