Very large doses of pyridoxine (vitamin B6) are neurotoxic in humans, selectively affecting the peripheral sensory nerves. We have undertaken a study of the morphological and biochemical aspects of pyridoxine neurotoxicity in an animal model system. Early morphological changes in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) associated with pyridoxine megadoses include proliferation of neurofilaments, ribosomes, rough endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi complexes. We present in this report evidence of the formation of unique aggregates of microtubules and membranes in the proximal processes of DRG which are induced by high levels of pyridoxine.

Abstract. Branched chain amino acids (BCAA), with vitamin B6 have been reported to improve fat metabolism and muscle synthesis. We hypothesized that supplementation with BCAA and vitamin B6 would result in more weight loss and improve body composition and blood markers related to cardiovascular diseases. Our aim was to determine whether the mentioned supplementation would affect weight loss, body composition, and cardiovascular risk factors during weight loss intervention. To this end, we performed a placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial in 42 overweight and obese women (BMI = 25–34.9 kg/m2). Taking a four-week moderate deficit calorie diet (–500 kcal/day), participants were randomized to receive BCAA (6 g/day) with vitamin B6 (40 mg/day) or placebo. Body composition variables measured with the use of bioelectrical impedance analysis, homeostatic model assessment, and plasma insulin, Low density lipoprotein, High density lipoprotein, Total Cholesterol, Triglyceride, and fasting blood sugar were measured. The result indicated that, weight loss was not significantly affected by BCAA and vitamin B6 supplementation (–2.43 ± 1.02 kg) or placebo (–1.64 ± 1.48 kg). However, significant time × treatment interactions in waist to hip ratio (P = 0.005), left leg lean (P = 0.004) and right leg lean (P = 0.023) were observed. Overall, supplementation with BCAA and vitamin B6 could preserve legs lean and also attenuated waist to hip ratio.

ZusammenfassungDie Homocystinurie ist eine seltene angeborene Erkrankung des Methioninstoffwechsels, die mit einer pathologischen Erhöhung der nicht proteinogenen Aminosäure Homocystein und der Ausscheidung ihres Disulfids Homocystin über den Urin einhergeht. Mehrere biochemische und genetische Defekte können zu einer deutlichen Homocysteinerhö-hung führen, darunter Störungen des Vita-min-B6-, Folsäure- und Vitamin-B12-Stoffwechsels, sodass der Terminus Homocystinurie eine Erkrankungsgruppe zusammenfasst. Die häufigste Ursache der Homocystinurie, auch klassische Homocystinurie oder Homo-cystinurie Typ I genannt, stellt die hereditäre Cystathionin-β-Synthase-Defizienz dar, die mit einer Erhöhung von Homocystein und Methionin im Blut einhergeht. Die Diagnose wird durch Bestimmung von Homocystein im Plasma gestellt und kann biochemisch und genetisch gesichert werden. Unbehandelt zeigen sich eine erhebliche Morbidität und Mortalität, die durch Ausschöpfung der therapeutischen Optionen, bestehend aus Vitamin B6, Folsäure, Vitamin B12, Betain und einer Proteinrestriktion mit Aminosäuresupplementie-rung, erheblich reduziert werden können.
