T polymorphisms on fasting plasma
total homocysteine (tHcy) depen
d on riboflavin status (eryth-
rocyte glutathionine reductase
activation coefficient, optimum:
\
1.2; marginally deficient: 1.2–1.4; deficient:
C
1.4) in 771
adults aged 18–75 years.
MTHFR
677T allele carriers with
middle or low tertile plasma folate (
\
14.7 nmol/L) had 8.2 %
higher tHcy compared to the 677CC genotype (
p
\
0.01). This
effect was eliminated when riboflavin status was optimal (
p
for
interaction: 0.048). In the
lowest cobalamin quartile
(
B
273 pmol/L), riboflavin status modifies the relationship
between the
MTRR
66 A
[
G polymorphism and tHcy (
p
for
interaction: 0.034). tHcy was 6.6 % higher in
MTRR
66G allele
carriers compared to the 66AA
genotype with marginally
deficient or optimal riboflavin status, but there was no differ-
ence when riboflavin status was deficient (
p
for interaction:
0.059). tHcy was 13.7 % higher in
MTRR
524T allele carriers
compared to the 524CC genoty
pe when cobalamin status was
low (
p
\
0.01), but no difference was observed when we
stratified by riboflavin status. The effect of the
MTHFR
