Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, is transported across the biological membrane into various organs by transport systems. Riboflavin transporter RFVT3 is expressed in the small intestine and has been suggested to localize in the apical membranes of the intestinal epithelial cells. In this study, we investigated the functional involvement of RFVT3 in riboflavin absorption using intestinal ep...
Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is the precursor of flavin mononucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide-essential cofactors for a wide variety of enzymes involving in numerous metabolic processes. In this study, a partial-length cDNA encoding bifunctional GTP cyclohydrolase II/3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone-4-phosphate synthase (LcRIBA), 2 full-length cDNAs encoding lumazine synthase (LcLS1 and LcLS2), and...
The underlying mechanisms responsible for the cardioprotective effects of riboflavin remain elusive. Current study tested the hypothesis that riboflavin protects injured myocardium via epigenetic modification of LSD1. Here we showed that myocardial injury was attenuated and cardiac function was improved in riboflavin-treated mice with experimental myocardial infarction (MI), while these protect...
For the assessment of nutritional riboflavin status in man, several methods have been applied which are, in their basic principles, comparable with the methods for assessing the status of other vitamins. One approach involves the determination of the dietary riboflavin intake by means of food composition tables or by chemical analysis of food samples (Roine & Pekkharinen, 1968; van Schaik, 1968...
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...
BACKGROUND Late-onset multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) is the most common type of lipid storage myopathies in China. Most patients with late-onset MADD are well responsive to riboflavin. Up to now, these patients are often treated with glucocorticoids as the first-line drug because they are misdiagnosed as polymyositis without muscle biopsy or gene analysis. Although glucocorti...
Riboflavin deficiency can cause a variety of metabolic problems that lead to skin and mucosal disorders. Limited evidence suggests that high intake of riboflavin may reduce overall risks of cancer. However, association of this deficiency with cervical cancer and precancerous lesions are still not definitively known. In this study, we characterized the relationship between plasma and tissue ribo...
One of the pathways involved in the acquisition of the essential metal iron by bacteria involves the reduction of insoluble Fe(3+) to soluble Fe(2+), followed by transport of Fe(2+) to the cytoplasm. Flavins have been implicated as electron donors in this poorly understood process. Ferrous iron uptake is essential for intestinal colonization by the important pathogen Campylobacter jejuni and ma...
Hyoscyamus albus hairy roots with/without an exogenous gene (11 clones) were established by inoculation of Agrobacterium rhizogenes. All clones cultured under iron-deficient condition secreted riboflavin from the root tips into the culture medium and the productivity depended on the number and size of root tips among the clones. A decline of pH was observed before riboflavin production and root...
