Cancer chem (methotrexase, a folate analog that ingibits DHFR

Vit B12 def.. more on diff. note card...
why does vit b12 def cause folate def.
well vit b12 is needed b/c it helps regenerate THF from methylTHF, which is important for purine and pyrmindine syntheis, and helps regerate methionie from Homocystein which s important for adenosine synthists.. thus not cobalumin... then folate is trapped as methylTHF, which is a nonusable from
SAM is importatn from
methylation rxns
Folate Def. can lead to
Megoblastic anemia
GI s/s
... sore tounge with taste bud atrophy

Fetal neural tube defect.
what do you see in cobalumin def. but not in folate def.
well in additoin to help regenerating THF.. Cobalmumin also helps in the conversoin of methylmalonyl CoA to Succyinal Coa.. thus in if there is a def. in Cobalmuin, then you get an accumlation of methylamalonyl coa and tis can get in neural membrands and thus give you neurological symptoms.... such as. SUBACUTE COMBINED DEGENERATION. mORE ON THIS ON A DIFF. NC
What is Subacute Neuronal Degeneration
it s a dx associated with vit b12 def.

it is degeration of the spinal cord involving demyelination of dorsal col (ascend) and corticospinal Prom(dece) tracts. thus gives you sensory and motor symptoms.. ataxia, numbnes, tingling to spastic weakiness and paraplegia.
in treating for megoblastic anemia which is found vit b12 and vit b9 def. what do you use and does this improve neurological symptoms
folate.... no.
