Effects of Biotin Deficiency on the Urinary Excretion of B-Group Vitamins in Mice
Author(s): Ai Tsuji* and Katsumi Shibata
Introduction: The eight kinds of B-group vitamins are involved with numerous metabolisms in harmony. Therefore, deprivation of one vitamin is likely to affect the pharmacokinetics and requirements of the other vitamins. Biotin has important roles, such as fatty acid synthesis, branched-chain amino acid catabolism, odd-chain fatty acid catabolism, and gluconeogenesis. We previously revealed that the urinary excretion rates of B-group vitamins decline when demand in the body increases. In the present study, we investigated the effects of biotin deficiency on the urinary excretion rates ((urinary excretion amount/intake amount) × 100) of other B-group vitamins.
Methods: ICR female mice were fed a 30% egg white diet with or without biotin. Aft... view more»
