SLC22A14 is a mitochondrial riboflavin transporter required for sperm oxidative phosphorylation and male fertility

Cell Reports, 2021
Summary: Ablation of Slc22a14 causes male infertility in mice, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we show that SLC22A14 is a riboflavin transporter localized at the inner mitochondrial membrane of the spermatozoa mid-piece and show by ...

Adaptive regulation of riboflavin transport in heart: effect of dietary riboflavin deficiency in cardiovascular pathogenesis [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 2017
Deficiency or defective transport of riboflavin (RF) is known to cause neurological disorders, cataract, cardiovascular anomalies, and various cancers by altering the biochemical pathways. Mechanisms and regulation of RF uptake process is well characterized in the cells of intestine, liver, kidney, and brain origin, while very little is known in the ...

Enhanced mitochondrial activity reshapes a gut microbiota profile that delays NASH progression

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Improved mitochondrial activity, due to the lack of methylation‐controlled J protein (MCJ), creates a specific microbiota signature that when transferred through cecal microbiota transplantation delays NASH progression by restoring the gut‐liver axis and enhancing hepatic fatty acid oxidation.

A juvenile ALS‐like phenotype dramatically improved after high‐dose riboflavin treatment

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Riboflavin transporter deficiency (RTD) was recently characterized as a cause of genetic recessive childhood‐onset motor neuron disease (MND) with hearing loss, formerly described as Brown‐Vialetto‐Van‐Lear syndrome.

Molecular Mechanisms Mediating the Adaptive Regulation of Intestinal Riboflavin Uptake Process. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The intestinal absorption process of vitamin B2 (riboflavin, RF) is carrier-mediated, and all three known human RF transporters, i.e., hRFVT-1, -2, and -3 (products of the SLC52A1, 2 & 3 genes, respectively) are expressed in the gut.

Combined isobutyryl‐CoA and multiple acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase deficiency in a boy with altered riboflavin homeostasis

JIMD Reports, 2022
In this report, we describe the case of an 11‐year‐old boy, who came to our attention for myalgia and muscle weakness, associated with inappetence and vomiting. Hypertransaminasemia was also noted, with ultrasound evidence of hepatomegaly.

A.05 An epidemiologic study of SLC52A2-related Riboflavin Transport Deficiency [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 2017
Background: Riboflavin transporter deficiency (RTD), formerly known as Brown-Vialetto-van Laere syndrome, is an early-onset neurodegenerative disorder with distinctive phenotypes. RTD is caused by mutations in either the SLC52A2 or SLC52A3 genes that encode riboflavin transporters RFVT-2 and RFVT-3, respectively.

The Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere and Fazio Londe syndrome revisited: natural history, genetics, treatment and future perspectives

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2012
The Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome is a rare neurological disorder which may present at all ages with sensorineural deafness, bulbar palsy and respiratory compromise. Fazio-Londe syndrome is considered to be the same disease entity.
