Mild folate deficiency induces genetic and epigenetic instability and phenotype changes in prostate cancer cells

BACKGROUND: Folate (vitamin B9) is essential for cellular proliferation as it is involved in the biosynthesis of deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP) and s-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet). The link between folate depletion and the genesis and progression of cancers of epithelial origin is of high clinica...
