IntroductionDr. Gyorgy identified in 1934 a family of chemically-related compounds including
pyridoxamine (PM) & pyridoxal (PL) and pyridoxine (PN).
The form most commonly form is pyridoxine HCl.
Phosphorylation of 5’position of B6 (PM, PL, & PN),which make PMP, PLP, & PNP. In animal, predominant of PMP & PLP;
in plant foods, a glucoside form in which glucose (5’-O-[-glucopyranosyl] pyridoxine) may play as storage formof vitamin.

Introduction Vitamin B6 is one of the most versatile enzyme
(>100 enzymes) cofactors.
Pyridoxal is the predominant biologically activeform (PLP). (More inborn error???)
Pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) is a cofactor1) in the metabolism of amino acids and neurotransmitters;2) in the breakdown of glycogen;3) bind to steroid hormone receptors and may have a role
in regulating steroid hormone action;4) in the immune system
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 8
ChemistryName: pyridoxine, pyridoxal & pyridoxamine,vitamin B6
Structure: 2-methyl-3-hydroxy5-hydroxy methylpyridines.Chemistry & physical property property: Vitamin B6s are readily soluble in water, stable in acid, unstable in alkali, is fairly easily destroyed with UV light, e.g. sunlight.
Stability --- pyridoxine > pyridoxal or pyridoxamine
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 9
Bioavailability
Complexed forms B6 poorly digested
B6 can be condensed with peptide lysyl or cysteinylresidues during food processing (e.g. cooking)thus, reduced the utilization of B6.
Plants contain complexed forms bioavailabilityof B6 in animal products tends to be greater thanin the plant materials.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 10
Absorption
Vitamin B6 is readily absorbed in the smallintestine. Pyridoxine uptake is by passivediffusion rather than by active transport, mainlyin jejunum & ileum.Driving force for B6 depends on the de- &rephosphorylation & protein binding. De- & Rephosphorylation of PLP, PNP is catalyzed byalkaline phosphatase & pyridoxal kinase,respectively.

Figure 1: B6 metabolism and transport2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 12
Absorption
Excess vitamin B6 is excreted in theurine so adequate daily intake isessential.Phosphorylated pyridoxine andpyridoxamine are then oxidized to thecommon forms.

2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 13
Transportation
Once absorbed, it (PLP and small amount of freepyridoxal) is carried in the blood tightly bound toproteins [the erythrocytes (hemoglobin) &albumin in plasma] to all body cells.
B6 binds via the amino group of the N-terminalvaline residue of the hemoglobin chain.(Schiff-Base)
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 14
TransportationPyridoxal more readily crosses cell membranesthan pyridoxal phosphate.
After being taken into the cell, the B6 vitamersare converted via a saturable two-step process(phosphorylation) to pyridoxal phosphate (PLP).
The reactions are catalyzed by a pyridoxal kinase(an enzyme present in the cytoplasm of mucosalcell.)
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 15
70-80% of the vitamin B6 in the body is located inmuscle (glycogen phosphorylase); 10% of B6 inthe liver; the remainder is distributed among theother tissues.
Small amount of vitamin B6 stored in body (40-150 mg; 20-75 days needed to deplete), mainlyas PLP & PNP.
Distribution
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 16
Conversion
When the vitamins are phosphorylated,transmural absorption decreases whereas uptakeis unaffected.Phosphorylation thus serves as a means ofcontrol of the cellular PMP, PLP, & PNP levels.This called “metabolic trapping”, because non-phosphorylated vitamers cross membranes moreeasily their phosphorylated analogues.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 17 2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 18
Why phosphated form of B6?Reason: to protect it from hydrolysis and providestorage of the vitaminPrinciple:
1. phosphorylation/dephosphorylation;2. oxidation/ reduction;3. amination/deaminationThe involved hepatic enzymes: pyridoxal kinase (Zn depended) produced phosphated
vitamers alkaline phosphatase produced dephosphated vitamers pyridoxal phosphate oxidase (FMN depended) e.g. PL
PLP

2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 19
CatabolismThe binding of PLP to albumin protects the coenzyme fromdegradation in the blood.In the liver, dephosphorylated & oxidized by pyridoxaloxidase (FAD, FMN) & aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD),respectively.PMP & PNP are oxidized by a FMN-dependent oxidase toform PLP.The forms of vitamin B6 found in food are converted toactive forms in the liver. Zinc, riboflavin, and niacin arenecessary for this process.Fasting and reducing diets usually deplete the vitamin B6supply unless it is supplemented. Usually within 8 hours,much of the excess is excreted through the urine.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 20
ExcretionBound B6 vitamers are catabolized by FAD-dependentaldehyde (pyridoxal) oxidase as well as NAD-dependentaldehyde dehydrogenase to produce 4-pyridoxic.4-Pyridoxic acid (PA) is the major excretory product, 50%in urine. It is also produced by the intestinal bacteria.Alcohol and its degradation product, acetaldehyde, displacePLP from proteins resulting in enhanced catabolism of thecoenzyme.Amphetamines, chropromazine, oral contraceptives, andreserpine all increase B6 loss. Oral contraceptives had beenfound to increase tryptophan use and thus increased B6 use.

Functions
Helping amino acid and protein metabolismEnabling the breakdown of glycogen to glucoseConverting tryptophan to niacin (amino acid &vitamin interaction)Enabling red blood cell metabolismHelping the nervous system function efficientlyHelping the immune system function efficiently
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 22
FunctionsPLP is involved in over 100 enzymaticreactions. Some of the major functionsare as follows: Aminotransferase reactionsDecarboxylation reactions Site-chain cleavage reactionsDehydratase reactionsOther functions
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 23
Mechanism of ActionMetabolically active form of B6 (PLP) serves as a coenzymeof numerous enzymes most of which are involved especiallyin amino acid metabolism and in neurotransmitters ofcentral nervous systemCofactor of Many Enzymes: The largest group of vitamin B6-dependent enzymes is transaminase,
which use -ketoglutarate as amino group acceptor.
Other PLP-dependent enzymes include decarboxylases, racemases &enzymes that catalyze amino acid side-chain alterations.
PLP also serves as a coenzyme for the phosphorylase & as amodulator of protein structure (e.g. steroid hormone receptor,hemoglobin & other enzymes).

Metabolic Roles1. PLP involved in both amino acids biosynthesis &
catabolism (amino acid transamination) The response of erythrocyte aspartate transaminatase
(EAST) to in vitro additions of PLP has been used as abiomarker of B6 status
Transsulfuration of methionine to cysteine needs PLP(cystathionine synthase & cystathionase), thus B6
deprivation, individual shows homocysteinuria &cystathionuria.

Serine, Glycine and Cysteine
Serine reacts with homocysteine,derived from methionine, to formcystathione. This reaction iscatalyzed by cystathione -synthase (CS).
Cystathione is cleaved by cysta-thionase to yield cysteine and-ketobutryate which goes onto form succinyl CoA, a TCAcycle intermediate.
Both enzymes are homologousto aminotransferases and requirePLP (vitamin B6).
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 30
Metabolic Roles2. PLP involved in:
Lipid metabolism: Sphingolipid biosynthesis (by serinepalmitoyltransferase) & arachidonic acid to prostaglandinE2 & carnitine synthesis
Gluconeogenesis: the release of glycogen (glycogenphosphorylase) from the liver and muscles.
Hemoglobin synthesis: helps red blood cell production(the synthesis of porphyrin precursors to heme) [-aminolevulenic acid synthase]
Niacin formation: the conversion of tryptophan to niacin(kynureninase)

Glycogen Phosphorylase catalyzes phosphorolytic cleavage ofthe (14) glycosidic linkages of glycogen, releasing glucose-1-phosphate as reaction product.
glycogen(n residues) + Pi glycogen (n–1 residues) + glucose-1-phosphate
This phosphorolysis may be compared to hydrolysis:Hydrolysis: R-O-R' + HOH R-OH + R'-OH

Methods of analysis
MicrobiologicalEnzymaticHPLC assay for various nutritional &food statusPLP is one of the most measurement.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 51
Requirements
Vitamin B6 intake is determined primarily byprotein intake.The RDA for adults is a minimum of 2 mg of B6per 100 grams of protein consumed. In children,it ranges from 0.6-1.2 mg. per 100 grams ofprotein.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 52
Sources
The richest sources of vitamin B6 arechicken, fish, liver, kidney, pork, eggs, milk,wheat germ and brewer's yeast.Other good sources include brown rice,soybeans, oats, whole wheat products,peanuts and walnuts.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 53
Supplements
Vitamin B6 is available as pyridoxine HCl andpyridoxal-5'-phosphate. The latter is the moreactive form and may be best for those with liverdisease who cannot convert pyridoxine topyridoxal-5'-phosphate.Anyone at risk of deficiency or who is sufferingfrom a condition possibly linked to vitamin B6deficiency is likely to benefit from supplements.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 54
ToxicityThe tolerable upper intake level (UL) for vitamin B6from dietary sources and supplements combined is100 mg per day.Large doses of vitamin B6 (over 2,000 mg) cancause nerve damage. Symptoms of vitamin B6toxicity include: muscle incoordination, numbnessof the hands and feet, impaired reflexes, abnormalplasma amino acid levelsNight restlessness, vivid dreams, sun sensitivity andan acne-like rash may also occur with high doses.

Kidney stonesA group of more than 85,000 women without a priorhistory of kidney stones were followed over 14 yearsand those who consumed 40 mg or more of vitamin B6daily had only 2/3 the risk of developing kidney stonescompared with those who consumed 3 mg or less.
Curhan GC et al., J Urol. 1996;155:1847-1851.
However, in a group of more than 45,000 men followedover six years, no association was found betweenvitamin B6 intake and the occurrence of kidney stones.

Disease TreatmentPremenstrual syndrome (PMS)A review of 12 placebo-controlled double-blind trials onvitamin B6 use for PMS treatment concluded that evidencefor a beneficial effect was weak.
Kleijnen J, et al., Br J Obstet Gynaecol. 1990;97(9):847-852
A more recent review of 25 studies suggested thatsupplemental vitamin B6, up to 100 mg/day, may be ofvalue to treat PMS; however, only limited conclusionscould be drawn because most of the studies were of poorquality.

Interactions with nutrients
Vitamin B6 requires riboflavin, zinc and magnesiumfor its normal function in the body.
Vitamin B6 deficiency may result in low blood levelsof vitamin C, increased excretion of calcium, zincand magnesium, and reduced copper absorption.
More B6 is utilized with an increased intake of theamino acid methionine.
2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 66
Interactions with drugsDrugs that influence needs for B6 are oralcontraceptives, isoniazid (for tuberculosis), hydralazine(for high blood pressure), amphetamines, reserpine (for
high blood pressure), and some antibiotics.Alcohol increases breakdown of the biologicallyactive form of vitamin B6 and long-term use maycause liver damage, which interferes with theconversion of vitamin B6 to the active form.Levodopa, some antidepressants, andpenicillamine may alter vitamin B6 requirements.

2009/2/18 Pyridoxine 67
Cautions
B6 supplements should not be taken by thosetaking anticonvulsants or levodopa for Parkinson'sdisease as they may alter the effectiveness ofthese medications.B6 may lower blood sugar and should be usedwith caution by diabetics.
