Polymorphisms in the MTHFR gene can reduce enzyme activity, disrupting the folate cycle and leading to hyperhomocysteinemia. The two most common polymorphisms associated with this gene are 667C&gt;T (rs1801133) and 1298A&gt;C (rs1801131). Background: This review provides a comprehensive summary of the current knowledge regarding MTHFR polymorphisms, with a particular focus on their potential impact on disease susceptibility. We hope this review will serve as a valuable resource for understanding the significance of MTHFR polymorphisms and their complex relationships with various diseases. Methods: For this review, we prioritized recent evidence, focusing on reviews and meta-analyses published between 2015 and 2025, sourced from PubMed and Google Scholar. Results: We explore the connection between these polymorphisms and a broad spectrum of medical conditions, including cardiovascular diseases and oxidative stress pathology; neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Alzheimer\u2019s disease, Schizophrenia, and Major Depressive Disorder; fertility, pregnancy, and neonatal complications, including recurrent pregnancy loss, pre-eclampsia, preterm birth, low birth weight, and neural tube defects; metabolic disorders, such as diabetes mellitus, inflammatory bowel disease, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; and oncological conditions, including breast, prostate, and ovarian cancers; as well as leukemia, and autoimmune diseases, particularly rheumatoid arthritis. Conclusions: While some diseases have a well-established association with MTHFR polymorphisms, others require further investigation. Our analysis highlights the crucial role of environmental factors, such as ethnic background and dietary folate intake, in influencing study outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/genes16040441","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,9]],"date-time":"2025-04-09T05:03:07Z","timestamp":1744174987000},"page":"441","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":32,"title":["MTHFR Gene Polymorphisms: A Single Gene with Wide-Ranging Clinical Implications\u2014A Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-1535-0695","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antoni F.","family":"Araszkiewicz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, ul.
