Parenchymatous Keratitis Following Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) Deficiency
Riboflavin or vitamin B2 (no. 1), a definite member of the 1 vitamin B complexis a pigment of the flavin type and has the empirical formula C17H20N4O?. It has also been called vitamin G, lactoflavin and ovaflavin. The other vitamin B2 (no. 2)?the P-P factor, nicotinic acid?has the formula C0H4N COOH, and its amide, C6H4N CONH?. Riboflavin has been isolated in pure form from liver, yeast and mil...
متن کاملVitamin B2 (riboflavin) and a mixture of vitamin B2 and C affects MMC efficiency in aerated media under irradiation.
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) acts as a strong radiation protecting agent in Escherichia coli bacteria (AB1157) in aerated media. This ability is reinforced by the addition of vitamin C. Under the influence of gamma-radiation, vitamin B2 completely suppresses the cytostatic activity of mitomycin C (MMC). In the presence of both vitamins, B2 and C, MMC is converted from an efficient cytostatic to a ra...

متن کاملMetronidazole Induced Aphthous Ulcer with Angular Cheilitis
Metronidazole, chemically a nitroimidazole is an antiprotozoal drug, which has broad spectrum cidal activity against anaerobic protozoa, anaerobic and microaerophillic bacteria. It was introduced in 1959 for trichomoniasis, and later found to be highly active amoebicide. Metronidazole after entering the cell by diffusion, its nitro group is reduced by certain redox proteins to a highly reactive...
متن کاملCharacterization of riboflavin (vitamin B2) transport proteins from Bacillus subtilis and Corynebacterium glutamicum.
Riboflavin (vitamin B(2)) is the direct precursor of the flavin cofactors flavin mononucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide, essential components of cellular biochemistry. In this work we investigated the unrelated proteins YpaA from Bacillus subtilis and PnuX from Corynebacterium glutamicum for a role in riboflavin uptake. Based on the regulation of the corresponding genes by a riboswitch ...
