Premature farrowing and stillbirths in two organic sow farms due to riboflavin deficiency [PDF]
Porcine Health Management, 2023 Background Riboflavin deficiency can lead to premature farrowing, stillborn piglets, weak-born piglets and neonatal death. Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is considered essential for reproductive function. The longer the period on riboflavin-deficient diets, the

Developmental riboflavin deficiency results in structural and functional changes in the neural retina and RPE [PDF]
Redox BiologyThe retina, a metabolically active tissue, relies on adequate flavin levels for optimal function. Our previous research demonstrated that ablation of RTBDN, a retina-specific riboflavin binding protein, plays a pivotal role in maintaining flavin levels ...

Riboflavin deficiency leads to irreversible cellular changes in the RPE and disrupts retinal function through alterations in cellular metabolic homeostasis [PDF]
Redox Biology, 2022 Ariboflavinosis is a pathological condition occurring as a result of riboflavin deficiency. This condition is treatable if detected early enough, but it lacks timely diagnosis.

Effects of riboflavin deficiency and high dietary fat on hepatic lipid accumulation: a synergetic action in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]
Nutrition & MetabolismBackground Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by excessive lipid accumulation in the liver. Riboflavin, one of water soluble vitamins, plays a role in lipid metabolism and antioxidant function.

The Anemia of Human Riboflavin Deficiency [PDF]
Blood, 1965 Abstract 1. Riboflavin deficiency was induced in 8 adult males with a riboflavin deficient diet and a riboflavin antagonist, galactoflavin. 2. Each patient developed a normochromic normocytic anemia and reticulocytopenia. 3. The leukocyte counts and platelet counts remained within the normal range throughout
