Folic acid is a B group vitamin, which is an essential element for the synthesis of nucleic acid, an essential substance for cell growth and tissue repair, and an indispensable nutrient in the process of embryo development.
MTHFR gene mutation caused by the corresponding reduction of enzyme activity can inhibit the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, leading to hypofolatemia and hyperhomocysteinemia.
Through genetic testing technology, the detection of human MTHFR gene can find out the absorption and utilization level of folic acid of different individuals as early as possible, so as to screen out the high-risk groups that are prone to folic acid deficiency, and realize the personalized supplement of folic acid.
