Fat which has been synthesized by rats from carbohydrates is characterized by the presence of large amounts of Cl6 fatty acids (1). In such synthetic depot fat, the total (716 acids constitute 40 to 45 per cent of the total mixed acids. The value for the Cl6 acids is approximately 25 per cent when fat is present in the animal’s diet and is being deposited directly. A particularly striking incre...

Thiamine (vitamin B1) is essential for brain function because of the coenzyme role thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) in glucose and energy metabolism. In order to compensate deficiency, several precursors with higher bioavailability were developed since 1950s. Among these, thioester benfotiamine (BFT) has been extensively studied beneficial effects both rodent models neurodegeneration human clinical ...

Thiamine, or vitamin B1 plays an indispensable role as a cofactor in crucial metabolic reactions including glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway and the tricarboxylic acid cycle in all living organisms. Thiamine has been shown to play a role in plant adaptation toward biotic and abiotic stresses. The modulation of thiamine biosynthetic genes in oil palm seedlings was evaluated in response to ro...

RATIONALE Circulatory failure, especially with low systemic vascular resistance (SVR), as observed in septic shock, thyrotoxicosis, and anemia, is a particular pattern that should suggest thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency. The clinical picture of wet beriberi secondary to thiamine deficiency only demonstrates non-specific clinical manifestations. For a diagnosis of wet beriberi, medical history ...

Consumption of foods with adequate nutritional content is very important to achieve optimal growth and development in infants toddlers. B vitamins are that function for metabolism general the formation chemicals nerve cells. This causes have an influence on brain function. study aimed analyze vitamin product form biscuits substituted pumpkin flour (Cucurbita moschata Durch) carrot (Daucus carro...

Restricted dietary intake is common among children with behavioral issues. Here we report a case of a severely autistic child who presented initially with limp but who soon developed cough, tachypnea, hypoxia, and tachycardia. An echocardiogram revealed evidence of pulmonary hypertension (PH) with severely dilated right ventricle and elevated right-sided pressures. The etiology of his PH was un...

The resurgence of interest in cancer metabolism has linked alterations in the regulation and exploitation of metabolic pathways with an anabolic phenotype that increases biomass production for the replication of new daughter cells. To support the increase in the metabolic rate of cancer cells, a coordinated increase in the supply of nutrients, such as glucose and micronutrients functioning as e...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is damage to the spinal cord that leads to sudden loss of motor and autonomic function and sensory under the level of the injury. Studies showed that individuals with SCI has a clear tendency to vitamins level change. The aim of this study was to review the vitamins level in spinal cord injury. Vitamins C level decrease in the injured spinal cord patient. Vitamins C hav...

Background: Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) functions as a pyruvate dehydrogenase cofactor to produce acetyl Co-A and activate the Krebs cycle in cellular metabolism. The hypermetabolic state septic condition requires excess thiamin keep functioning well. level blood decreases causes mitochondrial dysfunction vice versa results an increase lactate levels. This study aims evaluate correlation of thiamine ...
