Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Conclusions: MTX toxicity, final dose, and efficacy are influenced by folate supplementation.

OBJECTIVE To study (i) the influence of methotrexate (MTX) therapy on homocysteine and folate metabolism in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), (… in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR) on the change in plasma homocysteine levels during MTX treatment, and (iii) the interference of folate and homocysteine metabolism … treatment with MTX.

Folate deficiency occurs frequently in patients with rheumatoid arthritis; further, folate stores are decreased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who take methotrexate , suggesting that impaired folate status is related to toxicity [24-26].

Inhibition of pathways of folate metabolism involving purine metabolism by MTX , have been traditionally emphasized as important in MTX efficacy.
Medical hypotheses  •  2019  |  View Paper
Indeed, the very first cancer chemotherapy, methotrexate , functions by blocking folate metabolism and therefore the synthesis of DNA and RNA and has more recently been successfully applied to other proliferative diseases, namely rheumatoid arthritis.
