In Dogs With Chronic Enteropathies, Can Oral B12 Tablets Be Used to Treat Hypocobalaminaemia?
PICO question In dogs with chronic enteropathy does treatment with oral cobalamin compared to parenteral cobalamin provide serum cobalamin levels greater than 270 ng/L?

Cobalamin (vitamin B12) is a cobalt-containing enzymatic cofactor involved in methionine synthesis. Provided only by select bacteria and archaea in marine systems, this vitamin is known to limit primary production in different oceanic areas ...

COBALAMIN DEFICIENCY IN THE ELDERLY
Older people are at risk for cobalamin (vitamin B12) deficiency because of a number of common disorders (e.g. autoimmune gastritis) and drugs (e.g. antacids) that may alter its absorption and utilization. The prevalence of cobalamin deficiency increases with age, resulting particularly elevated in frail and institutionalized subjects.

Vitamin B12 in Cats: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Disease
Cobalamin is a water-soluble molecule that has an important role in cellular metabolism, especially in DNA synthesis, methylation, and mitochondrial metabolism. Cobalamin is bound by intrinsic factor (IF) and absorbed in the ileal tract.

Copper(II/III) Redox Couple Enables C─H Methylation via a Radical Mechanism Analogous to SAM Enzymes
Biological C–H methylation proceeds through radical pathways mediated by one‐electron redox cofactors, yet no synthetic model has reproduced this reactivity. Here, we report the first isolable Cu(II/III)–methyl complexes that mediate C–H methylation through hydrogen atom transfer and methyl radical rebound.

Background Low serum cobalamin concentrations have been associated with ileal malabsorption in dogs with chronic enteropathy. Increased serum methylmalonic acid (MMA) concentrations indicate cobalamin deficiency on a cellular level.

Vitamin B12 (or cobalamin) is an enzymatic cofactor essential both for mammals and bacteria. However, cobalamin can be synthesized only by few microorganisms so most bacteria need to take it up from the environment through the TonB-dependent transport ...

Scientific Opinion on Dietary Reference Values for cobalamin (vitamin B12)
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA) derived Dietary Reference Values (DRVs) for cobalamin (vitamin B12).

Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is a critical cofactor for animals and protists, yet its biosynthesis is limited to prokaryotes. We previously showed that the symbiotic nitrogen-fixing alphaproteobacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti requires cobalamin to establish a
