1992

Kang, S.S. | Wong, P.W.K. | Malinow, M.R.

This review discusses the mechanisms that characterize moderate hyperhomocysteinemia and the results of studies demonstrating the association of elevated plasma concentrations of homocysteine with the occurrence of occlusive vascular disease. In addition, homocysteine toxicity to endothelial cells is addressed.
