Riboflavin Attenuates Influenza Virus Through Cytokine-Mediated Effects on the Diversity of the Gut Microbiota in MAIT Cell Deficiency Mice

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Influenza is a serious respiratory disease that continues to threaten global health. Mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells use T-cell receptors (TCRs) that recognize microbial riboflavin derived intermediates presented by the major ...

Maternal vitamin deficiency mimicking multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency on newborn screening

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2021
Background: In infancy multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) is commonly a severe inherited metabolic disease caused by genetic defects in electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) or ETF ubiquinone oxidoreductase.

Interactions and potential implications of Plasmodium falciparum-hookworm coinfection in different age groups in south-central Côte d'Ivoire [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Given the widespread distribution of Plasmodium and helminth infections, and similarities of ecological requirements for disease transmission, coinfection is a common phenomenon in sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere in the tropics. Interactions

Transcriptional profiling of liver in riboflavin-deficient chicken embryos explains impaired lipid utilization, energy depletion, massive hemorrhaging, and delayed feathering

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background A strain of Leghorn chickens (rd/rd), unable to produce a functional riboflavin-binding protein, lays riboflavin-deficient eggs, in which all embryos suddenly die at mid-incubation (days 13-15).

HEMOPOIESIS IN RIBOFLAVIN-DEFICIENT RATS [PDF]

Blood, 1947
Abstract Leukopenia, granulocytopenia, and, occasionally, anemia develop in rats fed a purified diet deficient in riboflavin. Folic acid (L. casei factor) corrects the leukopenia and granulocytopenia. Riboflavin will prevent all the dyscrasias but will correct only the anemia.

Riboflavin - properties, occurrence and its use in medicine

Pteridines, 2019
Riboflavin is built on an isoalloxazin ring, which contains three sixcarbon rings: benzoic, pyrazine and pyrimidine. Riboflavin is synthesized by some bacteria, but among humans and animals, the only source of flavin coenzymes (FAD, FMN) is exogenous ...

Association of the plasma and tissue riboflavin levels with C20orf54 expression in cervical lesions and its relationship to HPV16 infection. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
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.
