Higher circulating vitamin B12 is associated with lower levels of inflammatory markers in individuals at high cardiovascular risk and in naturally aged mice

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 104, Issue 2, Page 875-882, 30 January 2024.
Abstract BACKGROUND Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that is involved in numerous physiological processes, and its deficiency can lead to various complications, including neurological and haematological disorders. Some studies have suggested that vitamin B12 may have anti‐inflammatory effects, but the mechanisms underlying this relationship are not

Evaluation of the technical performance of novel holotranscobalamin (holoTC) assays in a multicenter European demonstration project.

, 2016
A commercially available holotranscobalamin (holo-TC) radioimmunoassay (RIA) (Axis-Shield, Dundee, Scotland) was evaluated in four laboratories and compared with a holoTC ELISA run in one laboratory. The performance of the holoTC RIA assay was comparable

The effect of recombinant human intrinsic factor on the uptake of vitamin B12 in patients with evident vitamin B12 deficiency

Haematologica, 2006
We report on the use of recombinant human intrinsic factor (rhIF) in a new vitamin B12 absorption test. Holotranscobalamin (holoTC) was measured before and 24 hours after intake of three 9-mg doses of vitamin B12 (B12) and again 24 hours after intake of ...

Effects of Immune Complexes on Holotranscobalamine Assay of Vitamin B12 Deficiency in Myeloproliferative Disorders

International Journal of Hematology and Oncology, 2019
In myeloproliferative disorders (MPDs), vitamin B-12 levels are measured falsely elevated with conventional methods due to increased carrier protein synthesis. HoloTranscobalamine (HoloTC) assay is a first-choice method for detecting true vitamin B-12 deficiency in MPDs. Our aim was to determine effects of immune complexes on HoloTC assay.
