Biochemistry
Vitamins
1. Water soluble vitamins
2. Fat soluble vitamins
Objectives:
To recognize vitamins by name
To understand their distribution in various food
sources
To understand their role in metabolism
To understand the signs and symptoms of
diseases resulting from deficiencies
Vitamins
A group of organic nutrients required in small
quantities for a variety of biochemical
functions and which , generally , cannot be
synthesized by body and must therefore be
supplied in the diet.
Water soluble vitamins
1. B-complex vitamins
a) B-vitamins in energy metabolism
Thiamine (B1)
Riboflavin (B2)
Niacin (B3)
Biotin

b) B-vitamins in methyl group metabolism conversions

Food sources and distribution:
Whole grain, meats, legumes (peas, beans and lentils)
Signs and symptoms of deficiency
Beri-beri:
severe deficiency
Primarily in areas where polished rice is primary food source
Symptoms include dry skin, irritability, disorderly thinking and
progressive paralysis
Wet beriberi-cardiovascular symptoms, cardiac failure
Infants: onset can be rapid, resulting in tachycardia and death
(look to nutritional status of mother)
Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome:
Primarily associated with severe alcoholism.
Symptoms include apathy, loss of memory
Wandering eye movement
Toxicities, contraindications, and other notes
Only known use in treating deficiency
Commonly given to alcoholics in ER(emergency room)
Excess of any one B-vitamin can cause deficiency of others.

Pernicious anemia
Megaloblastic anemia
Neurologic dysfunction
Can result in abnormal fatty acid accumulation in membranes

Substantial stores of B12 are found in the body.
Could take years to develop deficiency.
Caution with patients who have had GI(gastro-intestinal) surgery.

Citrus fruits, potatoes

Review:
Diseases associated/resulting from deficiencies in water soluble vitamins:
BeriBeri: Vit B1
Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome: Vit B1
Pellagra: Vit B3
Pernicious anemia: B12
Megaloblastic anemia: B12
Scurvy: Vit C
Fat-soluble vitamins
Vitamin A
Vitamin D
Vitamin E
Vitamin K
Vitamin A
Food sources and distribution:
Low fat dairy products, deep yellow, orange vegetables
Function: Vitamin A(retinol) is the precursor of retinel, the lightsensitive group in rhodopsin and other visual pigments.
Signs and symptoms of deficiency:
Night blindness, dry eyes and skin
Slow growth in children
Lowered resistance to infection

Overdose can result in dry skin, headache
Can result in birth defects in pregnant women
Can cause liver damage
Vitamin A derivatives (isotretinoin, accutane) can cause
birth defects and has been associated with suicide.
