The classic signs of vitamin deficiency only occur in states of extreme depletion and are unreliable indicators for early treatment or prophylaxis of alcoholic patients at risk. Post-mortem findings demonstrate that thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency sufficient to cause irreversible brain damage is not di...
Repletion of deficient animals with vitamin E interrupts both the axonopathy and the myopathy, indicating the direct role of vitamin E deficiency in the pathogenesis of both lesions. 展开 关键词: chronic vitamin E deficiency mammals nervous system skeletal muscles monkeys ...
Vitamin D deficiency in children or early life has been associated with asthma development, where low vitamin D intake in mothers could influence wheezing in children [22]. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the preventive properties of vitamin D in children: (1) support tolerogenic ...

Mutation and haplotype analyses of the MUT gene in Japanese patients with methylmalonic acidemia Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is caused by a deficiency in the activity of L: -methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MCM), a vitamin B12 (or cobalamin, Cbl)-dependent e... O Sakamoto,T Ohura,Y Matsubara,.....
Elevated plasma tHcy concentrations were positively related to serum Cys-C concentrations.ConclusionsHyperhomocysteinemia in chronically exposed workers was primarily induced by vitamin B12 and folate deficiency. This metabolic change might be associated with renal dysfunction in chromate processing workers ...
