Levomefolic acid (International Nonproprietary Name, INN, also known as L-5-MTHF, L-methylfolate and L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate and (6''S'')-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, and (6''S'')-5-MTHF) is the primary biologically active form of folate used at the cellular level for DNA reproduction, the cysteine cycle and the regulation of homocysteine. It is also the form found in circulation and transported across membranes into tissues and across the blood–brain barrier. In the cell, L-methylfolate is used in the methylation of homocysteine to form methionine and tetrahydrofolate (THF). THF is the immediate acceptor of one carbon unit for the synthesis of thymidine-DNA, purines (RNA and DNA) and methionine. The un-methylated form, folic acid (vitamin B9), is a synthetic form of folate, and must undergo enzymatic reduction by dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) to become biologically active. Systematic reviews suggest that Combination therapy, adjunctive L-methylfolate modestly improves symptoms ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
