16 Cards in this Set
- Front
- Back
B1
|
thiamine
- Dehydrogenase (Pyruvate, a-ketoglutrate, branched-AA) - Transketolase (HMP) - Ber1Ber1 |
|
Beriberi
|
Dry = polyneuritis; symmetric muscle wasting
Wet = HOHF; dilated cardiomyopathy; edema - GLUCOSE CAN WORSEN -> ATP depletion |
|
Vit. B2
|
- Riboflavin (FMN, FAD)
- Cheliosis and Corneal neovascularization |
|
Vit. B3
|
- Niacin (NAD+, NADP+)
- Pellegra = dermatitis, dementia, diarrhea - Synthesized by tryptophan by B6 Excess = Facial flusihng (Niacin) |
|
causes of pellegra
|
- Hartnup
- Carcinoid - INH (because depletes B6 which is needed for synthesis) |
|
Vit. B5
|
- Pantothenate (CoA)
- cofactor for acyl transfers and FA synthase - Oxaloacetate ----> citrate Def = adrenal insufficiency |
|
Vit. B6
|
pyridoxine
- PLP - TRANSAMINATION - DECARBOXYLATION - GLYCOGEN PHOSPHORYLASE - CYSTATHIONE SYNTHESIS - HEME SYNTHESIS |
|
Def of B6
|
Convulsion
Peripheral Neuropathy (INH and OCPs) sideroblastic anemia (ALA synthase) |
|
Vit. B12
|
- homocystein methyltransferase
- methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (inc. methylmalonyl-COA) - Diphyllobothrium latum |
|
Folic Acid
|
def
- phenytoin (inhibits intestine conjugase) - OCPs and EtOH - Sulfonamides - MTX |
|
SAM
|
- ATP + methionine ---> SAM
sam the methyl donor man - regeneration of methionine (& thus SAM) is dependent on B12 and folate = HOMOCYSTEINE methyltransferase |
|
Biotin
|
- B7
- Made by bacteria in intestine - AVIDin in egg whites AVIDly binds biotin (used in ELISA, and western blot) - cofactor for carboxylation (+1 carbon) - Met Acidosis w/ deficiency |
|
Pyruvate Carboxylase: Pyruvate ---> OAA
Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase: Acetyl-CoA ----> malonyl-CoA Propionyl-CoA Carboxylase: Propionyl-CoA ----> methylmalonyl-CoA |
- +1 carbon
- Biotin is cofactor - malonyl-CoA= 1.) inhibits carnitine acyltransferase 2.) buling block for FA synthesis |
|
Vit. C
|
- helps iron absorption = keeps iron in Fe+2 reduced state
- collagen - DOPAMINE B-HYDROXYLASE = DA -> NE |
|
Vit D MOA
|
- binds to receptors on osteoblasts
- Alk phos released and hydrolyzes pyrophosphate which is an inhibitor of bone mineralization |
|
Vit. E
|
- tocopherol
- antioxidant = protects erythrocytes and membranes from free radicals Def = Hemolytic Anemia; Muscle weakness - Posterior Column and spinocerebellar tract demyelination |
