Folic acid (calcium folinate) is a special form of reduced folic acid (folate). High dose folic acid intervention in children with CFD can improve their neurological and developmental abnormalities. Abnormal folate metabolism is related to the occurrence of autism in children. The genetic polymorphism of folate related pathway may lead to abnormal folate metabolism.

Advantage of Folinic Acid CAS No. 58-05-9

Can improve megaloblastic anemia

Reduce MTX-induced toxicity

It can stimulate the growth and maturation of white blood cells

In vitro study MTX alone induces a concentration-related increase in % micronucleated binucleated cells (MNBN) and % aberrant cells (Abs). There is a decrease in nuclear division index (NDI) with increase in MTX concentration. Similarly, the mitotic index (MI) also decreases in all concentrations of MTX tested. The addition of Folinic acid at 50 μg/ mL significantly reduces % MNBN (40-68%) and % Abs (36-77%). Inhibition is also seen at 5 μg/ mL Folinic acid (12 to 54% for MNBN and 20 to 61% for Abs) .
