Biochemical riboflavin status was measured in 68 preterm infants who were receiving either human milk or a preterm infant formula (containing riboflavin, 1.8 mg/l) during the first few weeks of life. The relation between riboflavin status, type of diet, and time of introduction of a multivitamin supplement containing riboflavin was analysed and the duration of phototherapy was recorded. Those w...
BACKGROUND National survey data of erythrocyte glutathione reductase activation coefficient (EGRac) indicate that suboptimal riboflavin status may be a problem in all population age groups, but the cutoff for deficiency is controversial. In addition, the effectiveness of different biomarkers of riboflavin status has not been critically evaluated. OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess the effectiveness...
Under normal conditions of growth, riboflavin is synthesized by all higher plants and is utilized as a prosthetic group by various flavoprotein enzymes (12). Pound and Welkie (11) observed the presence of a yellow pigment in the nutrient solution of tobacco plants grown in the absence of iron. Physical and chemical tests indicated that the pigment was riboflavin, and it was suggested that the d...
In 1940, Warkany and Nelson observed that congenital malformations could be induced in the offspring of Sprague-Dawley rats by feeding the mothers a deficient, but poorly characterized, diet (2). These developmental anomalies, primarily of skeletal nature, were subsequently shown to result from a specific deficiency of riboflavin (3,4). Prolonged ingestion of the riboflavindeficient diet, for 4...
metabolic myopathies are genetically inherited disorders of muscle energy production that result in skeletal muscle dysfunction. they are a large group of diseases with diverse inborn errors of metabolism, in particular muscle energy production, and including disorders of glycogen (lysosomal and non-lysosomal glycogenoses), lipid (disorders of fatty acid b-oxidation, primary carnitine deficienc...
The effect of flavin deficiency on blue light responses in Neurospora crassa was studied through the use of two riboflavin mutants (rib-1 and rib-2). The photoresponses assayed were the suppression of circadian conidiation, the phase shifting of the circadian conidiation rhythm, and the induction of carotenoid synthesis. Flavin deficiency was induced in the rib-1 mutant by restrictive growth te...
Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenation deficiency (MADD) is a disorder of fatty acid, amino acid and choline metabolism that can result from defects in two flavoproteins, electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) or ETF: ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF:QO). Some patients respond to pharmacological doses of riboflavin. It is unknown whether these patients have defects in the flavoproteins themselves or def...
BACKGROUND Between 1990 and 1993, fear of ethnic persecution led 83,000 ethnic Nepalese to flee from Bhutan to refugee camps in Nepal, where they remained at the time of this study. Reported cases of angular stomatitis (AS), ie, thinning or fissuring at the mouth angles, increased 6-fold from December 1998 to March 1999, from 5.5 to 35.6 cases per 1000 per month. This increase came after the re...
