Pyridoxine/Vitamin B6 plays a key role in the nervous, immune, and endocrine systems. It is also involved in the metabolic processes of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates. Deficiency of pyridoxine may lead to convulsions and epileptic encephalopathy and result in infant abnormalities.

Homocysteine (Hcy) is an intermediary sulphur amino acid recognised for pro-oxidative properties in several species which may weaken immune competence in piglets. In this species, there is an acute 10-fold increase of concentrations of plasma Hcy (pHcy) during the first

Vitamin B6 is involved in a variety of enzymatic transformations. Some recent findings also indicate an antioxidant role of the vitamin in biological systems. We set out to turn pyridoxine (1a) into a catalytic chain-breaking and hydroperoxide-decomposing antioxidant by replacing

The discovery of vitamins as essential factors in the diet was a scientific breakthrough that changed the world. Diseases such as scurvy, rickets, beriberi, and pellagra were recognized to be curable with an adequate diet. These diseases had been prevalent

Dopa or aromatic amino acid decarboxylase (DDC, AADC) is a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyses the production of the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin. Among the so far identified mutations associated with AADC deficiency, an inherited rare neurometabolic disease, the S250F
The formation of combined electrogenic/electrotrophic biofilms from marine sediments for the development of microbial energy storage systems was studied. Sediment samples from the German coasts of the Baltic and the North Sea were used as inocula for biofilm formation. Anodic
