Connection 4 BH4 Depletion and eNOS Uncoupling Beyond Homocysteine Beyond its homocysteine-mediated BH4 oxidation effect, MTHFR impairment reduces BH4 recycling through a second mechanism: the dihydrobiopterin reductase (DHFR) enzyme that regenerates BH4 from BH2 requires dihydrofolate reductase activity an enzyme that uses NADPH to reduce both dihydrofolate to THF and BH2 to BH4
In the author's observations, making treatment decisions contingent of the blood levels of co-enzyme Q10, carnitine and amitriptyline was very helpful in many cases, as children with sub-optimal clinical improvement always demonstrated a low level of at least one of the three agents, and increased dosing was associated with the resolution of episodes
While NAC was found to have no impact on force production during sustained maximal contractions, it was found to help reduce and inhibit glutathione oxidation during repetitive submaximal contractions
