niacin and Avitaminosis

niacin has been researched along with Avitaminosis in 43 studies

Niacin: A water-soluble vitamin of the B complex occurring in various animal and plant tissues. It is required by the body for the formation of coenzymes NAD and NADP. It has PELLAGRA-curative, vasodilating, and antilipemic properties.
vitamin B3 : Any member of a group of vitamers that belong to the chemical structural class called pyridines that exhibit biological activity against vitamin B3 deficiency. Vitamin B3 deficiency causes a condition known as pellagra whose symptoms include depression, dermatitis and diarrhea. The vitamers include nicotinic acid and nicotinamide (and their ionized and salt forms).
nicotinic acid : A pyridinemonocarboxylic acid that is pyridine in which the hydrogen at position 3 is replaced by a carboxy group.

Avitaminosis: A condition due to a deficiency of one or more essential vitamins. (Dorland, 27th ed)

"It was concluded that the neurological manifestations often associated with the classical picture of Pellagra are not due to nicotinic acid deficiency, but to the deficiency of some component of the vitamin B complex which was neither vitamin B1, nor vitamin B2."1.26Vitamin deficiencies during the Spanish Civil War in Madrid: a reminiscence.
