Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of daily consumption of a tablet containing 5 mg FA on serum folatenumber and cytotoxicity of natural killer (NK) cellsmRNA expression of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), interferon gamma (IFNG), tumor necrosis factor a (TNFA), and interleukin 8 (IL8) genesand concentrations of serum inflammatory markers. Methods: This prospective clinical trial was conducted in 30 healthy Brazilian adults (15 women), aged 27.7 y (95% CI: 26.4, 29.1 y), with a body mass index (in kg/m 2) of 23.1 (95% CI: 22.0, 24.3). Blood was collected at baseline and after 45 and 90 d of the intervention. Serum folate concentrations were measured by microbiological assay and HPLC-tandem mass spectrometry [ folate forms, including unmetabolized folic acid (UMFA)]. We used real-time polymerase chain reaction to assess mononuclear leukocyte mRNA expression and flow cytometry to measure the number and cytotoxicity of NK cells. Results: Serum folate concentrations increased by5-fold after the intervention (P < 0.001), and UMFA concentrations increased by 11.9-and 5.9-fold at 45 and 90 d, respectively, when compared with baseline (P < 0.001). UMFA concentrations increased (> 1.12 nmol/L) in 29 (96.6%) participants at day 45 and in 26 (86.7%) participants at day 90. We observed significant reductions in the number (P < 0.001) and cytotoxicity (P = 0.003) of NK cells after 45 and 90 d. Compared with baseline, DHFR mRNA expression was higher at 90 d (P = 0.006) and IL8 and TNFA mRNA expressions were higher at 45 and 90 d (P = 0.001 for both). Conclusion: This noncontrolled intervention showed that healthy adults responded to a high-dose FA supplement with increased UMFA concentrations, changes in cytokine mRNA expression, and reduced number and cytotoxicity of NK cells.Univ São Paulo, Dept Clin & Toxicol Anal, Fac Pharmaceut Sci, São Paulo, BrazilUniv São Paulo, Dept Food & Expt Nutr, Fac Pharmaceut Sci, São Paulo, BrazilUniv Fed São Paulo, Hematol & Blood Transfus Div, São Paulo, BrazilCDC, Natl Ctr Environm Hlth, Atlanta, GA 30333 USAUC Davis Sch Med, Dept Pathol & Lab Med, Sacramento, CA USAUniv Fed São Paulo, Hematol & Blood Transfus Div, São Paulo, BrazilWeb of ScienceFundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)FAPESP: 2012/12912-1CNPq: 482641/2012-6CNPq: 401586/2014-6Amer Soc Nutrition-Asn2019-08-19T11:48:31Z2019-08-19T11:48:31Z2017info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion1684-1692http://dx.doi.org/10.3945/jn.117.247445Journal Of Nutrition.
