The Analysis of Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Mutation in Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion Associated with Hyperhomocysteinemia

Nam ys, Choi js, Ha ks, Lee zw, Oh dy

Objective : To analyze the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase(MTHFR) mutation in recurrent spontaneous abortion associated with hyperhomocysteinemia. Material and Method : The blood sample of habitual aborter with high fasting homocysteine level was tested by PCR – RFLP method. Results : The patient was found to be a homozygosity for MTHFR gene mutation that was confirmed by the finding which is consistent with the mutation at the nucleotide 677 C to T, corresponding to Ala to Val. Conclusions : Hyperhomocysteinemia due to MTHFR mutation is a cause of recurrent spontaneous abortion. Therefore, the MTHFR mutation should be examined in the workup of recurrent spontaneous abortion showing hyperhomocysteinemia.
