Abstract: Objective: To explore the effect of folic acid, Vit B6, and Vit B12 on hyperhomocysteinemia in renal-transplant recipients. Methods: 195 renal-transplant recipients were randomly divided into the vitamin treatment group (group A, n=103, folic acid 5mg/d, vitamin B6 50mg/d, Bl2 1mg/d, totally 2 months) and the control group (group B, n=92). The plasma Hcy levels were determined before treatment, before operation and 1, 10, 20 and 30 days after operation. Results: The plasma level of Hcy in group B was significantly higher than that in group A before and after operation. The rate of acute rejection was lower in group A than in group B. Conclusion: Vitamin B supplementation can reduce the homocysteine level and the rate of acute rejection for renal-transplant recipients.
