Konjac Mannan Improves the Vitamin B-6 Status of Rats Fed a Vitamin B-6-deficient Diet

International Journal for Vitamin and Nutrition Research, 1999
To investigate how dietary fiber in the diet affects vitamin B-6 nutriture of rats which have been deprived of vitamin B-6, rats were made vitamin B-6-deficient by feeding a vitamin B-6-deficient 70% casein diet. They were fed 2% cellulose powder-based vitamin B-6-deficient diets supplemented with 3% of additional dietary fiber sources (agar, konjac ...

Humoral Immunity in Chicks Experiencing Marginal Vitamin B-6 Deficiency

The Journal of Nutrition, 1984
An economical vitamin B-6-deficient ration that was palatable to broiler chickens was prepared and fed to 1-day-old chicks. The experimental ration was a typical soy-glucose ration. Vitamin B-6 was removed by washing the soybean meal with water.

Neuronal Development in Vitamin B₆ Deficiency

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1990
The morphological changes observed in developing brain regions associated with maternal vitamin B6 deficits are summarized in Table 4. Brain development is a complex and orderly process consisting of cell division, proliferation, migration, and maturation.

Behavioral thermoregulation during vitamin B₆ deficiency

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1963
Thermoregulatory behavior was studied in vitamin B6-deficient and control rats exposed to a temperature of 2–3 C. The animals were kept in an experimental chamber provided with a lever which, when pressed, turned on a heat lamp placed above the chamber. The B6-deficient rats turned on the heat lamp more frequently than did the controls.

Gluconeogenesis in Meal-Fed, Vitamin B-6-Deficient Rats

The Journal of Nutrition, 1980
Male weanling rats were meal-fed (2 hours daily) on a vitamin B-6-deficient diet for 8 weeks; the controls were pair-fed. Vitamin B-6 deficiency led to the expected decreases in the activities of hepatic alanine and aspartate aminotransferases but did not influence those of glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.2), pyruvate carboxylase (EC 6.6.1.1 ...

14C-α-Aminoisobutyric Acid Uptake in Vitamin B-6-deficient Rats: Effect of Growth Hormone and Vitamin B-6

The Journal of Nutrition, 1973
Studies of the relative effects of growth hormone ( GH ) and vitamin B-6 on the in vivo uptake of «-"C-aminoisobutyric acid ( AIB ) in liver, diaphragm and heart of vitamin B-6-deficient rats were conducted. Generally, greater cellular uptake of AIB was observed in deficient than control rats. This increased uptake was particularly marked in liver. GH

[Vitamin B 6 deficiency anemia].

Schweizerische medizinische Wochenschrift, 1976
The course of spontaneous vitamin B6 deficiency anemia in a 57-year-old woman is reported. The anemia was characterized by hypochromasia of the erythrocytes, hyperferricemia, absence of hemolysis, and hyperplastic, ineffective, sideroblastic erythropoiesis of the bone marrow. It was corrected by oral vitamin B6 therapy.

Connective Tissue Integrity is Lost in Vitamin B-6—Deficient Chicks

The Journal of Nutrition, 1995
The objective of the present investigation was to characterize further the connective tissue disorder produced by pyridoxine (vitamin B-6) deficiency, as previously evidenced by electron microscopy. Following the second post-natal week, fast growing male chicks were deprived of pyridoxine for a 1-mo period.

Effect of vitamin B-6 deficiency on fasting plasma homocysteine concentrations

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1992
The catabolism of homocysteine through cystathionine synthesis requires pyridoxal-5'-phosphate, thus the effect of vitamin B-6 deficiency on plasma homocysteine concentrations was evaluated. Total fasting plasma homocysteine concentrations were measured in 11 elderly subjects aged 64.4 +/- 1.7 y (mean +/- SE) who consumed a vitamin B-6-deficient diet ...
