Recurrent “outsider” intronic variation in the SLC5A6 gene causes severe mixed axonal and demyelinating neuropathy, cyclic vomiting and optic atrophy in 3 families from Maghreb [PDF]
Sodium dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) deficiency is a very rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by multisystemic clinical manifestations due to combined biotin, panthotenic acid and lipoic acid deficiency.

A mild case of SMVT deficiency illustrating the importance of treatment response in variant classification [PDF]
Introduction Sodium-dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) deficiency is a recently described multivitamin-responsive IMD of which the phenotypic spectrum and response to treatment remains to be elucidated. So far, four pediatric patients have been described in three case reports with symptoms ranging from severe neurodevelopmental delay to feeding ...

Drug-Resistant Sinus Tachycardia as a Dose-Dependent Side Effect of Spironolactone: A Case Report and Review of the Literature. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Spironolactone is widely used for polycystic ovarian syndrome due to its anti‐androgenic properties. However, rare cardiovascular side effects may occur even in normotensive patients. We report a case of severe palpitations and drug‐resistant sinus tachycardia following high‐dose therapy, emphasizing the need for cautious titration and cardiac

Biotin controls intestinal stem cell mitosis and host-microbiome interactions
Summary: Diet is a key regulator of metabolism and interacts with the intestinal microbiome. Here, we study the role of the Drosophila intestinal stem cell (ISC)-specific biotin transporter Smvt in midgut homeostasis, infection-induced regeneration, and ...

Sodium Dependent Multivitamin Transporter (SMVT): A Potential Target for Drug Delivery [PDF]
Sodium dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT; product of the SLC5A6 gene) is an important transmembrane protein responsible for translocation of vitamins and other essential cofactors such as biotin, pantothenic acid and lipoic acid. Hydropathy plot (Kyte-Dolittle algorithm) revealed that human SMVT protein consists of 635 amino acids and 12 ...

Holocarboxylase synthetase regulates expression of biotin transporters by chromatin remodeling events at the SMVT locus [PDF]
The sodium-dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) is essential for mediating and regulating biotin entry into mammalian cells. In cells, biotin is covalently linked to histones in a reaction catalyzed by holocarboxylase synthetase (HCS); biotinylation of lysine 12-biotinylated histone H4 (K12Bio H4) causes gene silencing.

Role of the sodium-dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) in the maintenance of intestinal mucosal integrity [PDF]
Utilizing a conditional (intestinal-specific) knockout (cKO) mouse model, we have recently shown that the sodium-dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) ( SLC5A6) is the only biotin uptake system that operates in the gut and that its deletion leads to biotin deficiency.
