Background Elevated plasma homocysteine (Hcy) concentrations are associated with an increased risk of vascular disease. Hcy is known to inhibit endothelial cell proliferation in vitro. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the role of plasma Hcy concentrations on development of collateral circulation in single-vessel chronic total occlusion.
