General description
Homocysteine a sulphur containing amino acid, is formed by the transmethylation of methionine, an essential amino acid. Homocysteine may be irreversibly metabolised to cystathionine by cystathionine synthetase. This reaction uses pyridoxal phosphate (Vitamin B6) as a co-enzyme (see figure). The enzyme cystathionine synthetase is deficient in homocysteinuria, a rare genetic disease associated with high blood levels of homocysteine and the development of premature atherosclerosis. This and the association of other rare enzyme deficiencies with homocysteinemia and premature atherosclerosis led McCully to formulate the homocysteine hypothesis of atherosclerosis (McCully KS, The homocysteine theory of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis. 1976; 20: 23-27)

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common cause of blindness in people under the age of 65. Unfortunately, the current screening process for DR restricts the population that can be evaluated and the disease goes undetected until irreversible damage occurs.

Epidemiological studies established that elevated homocysteine, an important intermediate in folate, vitamin B12, and one carbon metabolism, is associated with poor health, including heart and brain diseases. Earlier studies show that patients with severe hyperhomocysteinemia, first identified in the 1960s
