Transcript of Vitamin E & K Lecture 3 BIOCHEMISTRY
- 1. Dr. Vijay Marakala, MBBS, MD. Assistant professor BIOCHEMISTRY SIMS & RC
- 2. Chemistry Sources RDA Metabolism Functions Deficiency Toxicity
- 3. Tocopherols -tocopherol -tocopherol -tocopherol -tocopherol Tocotrienols -tocotrienols -tocotrienols -tocotrienols -tocotrienols
- 4. RDA 8 10 mg/day The daily requirement increases with increase in dietary intake of PUFA
- 5. Absorption Upper SI Along with lipids Transport Chylomicron VLDL and LDL Storage Adipose tissue liver
- 6. As a biological antioxidant Prevents lipid peroxidation of biological membrane Prevents peroxidation of vitamin A & PUFA Reproductive functions & prevents sterility Vitamin E
- 7. Selenium complements the antioxidant effects of vitamin E and reduces the requirement of vitamin E
- 8. Causes Inadequate intake Impaired absorption Features Hemolytic anaemia in the new born Muscle weakness Spinocerebellar ataxia and impaired vision
- 9. Pylloquinone Present in plants Vitamin K1 Menaquinone Produced by intestinal bacteria Vitamin K2 Menadione Synthetic form Vitamin K3
- 10. 80g/day
- 11. Absorption Upper SI Along with lipids Transport Chylomicron LDL Storage Liver
- 12. Role in blood coagulation Cofactor for gamma carboxylation of glutamic acid in clotting factors II, VIII, IX and X Role in bone mineralization Cofactor for gamma carboxylation of glutamic acid in osteocalcin
- 13. Causes In newborn Impaired absorption Sterile bacterial flora Features Bleeding Prolonged prothrombin time
- 14. Dicumarol Warfarin
