Vitamin B12 and protein metabolism.
Fat in the diet of rats. 8 39 carbon dioxide plus soya-bean oil (ratio 2: I) grew poorly, and all died during the first half of the experimental period. 4. The animals fed on a mixture of PT 006 or PT 006 plus distillate-soya-bean oil (ratio 2: I ) grew throughout the whole experimental period (36 weeks), although significantly more slowly than the controls. No neoplastic tissue was found at au...
متن کاملRelationships between Biotin and Vitamin B12. Effects of Biotin and Vitamin B12 on Folic Acid Metabolism.
1. The effects of dietary biotin compared with vitamin B(12) on the total content and on the distribution of the various folate derivatives in the liver of rats given a biotin-free diet have been studied. The effect of both vitamins on the conversion in vitro of folic acid into citrovorum factor in the same experimental conditions was also examined. 2. In biotin-treated rats as well as in vitam...
متن کاملVitamin B12 metabolism and massive-dose methyl vitamin B12 therapy in Japanese patients with multiple sclerosis.
Serum vitamin B12 levels and unsaturated vitamin B12 binding capacities were measured in 24 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), 73 patients with other neurological disorders and 21 healthy subjects. There was no decrease in the vitamin B12 levels, however, a significant decrease in the unsaturated vitamin B12 binding capacities was observed in patients with MS when compared with other groups...
متن کاملThe electroencephalogram in veganism, vegetarianism, vitamin B12 deficiency, and in controls.
The electroencephalogram (E.E.G.) is often abnormal in patients with pernicious anaemia. This abnormality is not related to age or to haemoglobin level and is reversible with vitamin B12 therapy. In 76 cases of pernicious anaemia with abnormal E.E.G.s (Walton, Kiloh, Osselton, and Farrall, 1954) the changes in the E.E.G. were reversed in 60 (79 %) by the administration of vitamin B12, the impro...
متن کاملSome observations on the vitamin B12 content of rat's milk.
I. Vitamin B,, activity in the milk of rats on various diets was measured by microbiological assay at intervals throughout lactation. The concentration of sodium and calcium in the milk was also determined. 2. At all stages of lactation the milk of rats fed on commercial rat cake contained much more vitamin Bla activity than that of rats receiving a semi-synthetic diet containing at least as mu...
