Background: TSH-suppressive therapy in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) leads to iatrogenic thyrotoxicosis and may be associated with alterations in body composition and bone mineral density (BMD).

Folate and cobalamin are methyl donors (MD) needed for synthesis of methionine, precursor of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), the substrate of methylation in epigenetic, and epigenomic pathways. The MD deficiency (MDD) leads to a decrease in SAM/SAH ratio and hyperhomocysteinemia, which has been related to osteoporosis in humans and disruption of development of epiphyseal cartilage in rat. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive.M...
