4,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylpyridin-3-ol: structure in first source
vitamin B6 : Any member of the group of pyridines that exhibit biological activity against vitamin B6 deficiency. Vitamin B6 deficiency is associated with microcytic anemia, electroencephalographic abnormalities, dermatitis with cheilosis (scaling on the lips and cracks at the corners of the mouth) and glossitis (swollen tongue), depression and confusion, and weakened immune function. Vitamin B6 consists of the vitamers pyridoxine, pyridoxal, and pyridoxamine and their respective 5'-phosphate esters (and includes their corresponding ionized and salt forms).

Weight Gain: Increase in BODY WEIGHT over existing weight.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To determine the tolerable upper intake level of pyridoxine-HCl in humans, we investigated the effects of excess pyridoxine-HCl administration on body weight gain, food intake, tissue weight, and urinary excretion of water-soluble vitamins in weaning rats."3.75[Effects of excess pyridoxine-HCl on growth and urinary excretion of water-soluble vitamins in weaning rats]. ( Fukuwatari, T; Itoh, K; Shibata, K, 2009)
" Vitamin B-6 status was evaluated according to several biological criteria (weight gain, urinary excretion of xanthurenic acid after tryptophan loading, plasma pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, apparent pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-saturation of liver kynureninase, urinary excretion of 4-pyridoxic acid and fecal output of vitamin B-6)."3.70Konjac mannan improves the vitamin B-6 status of rats fed a vitamin B-6-deficient diet. ( Hayakawa, T; Iida, Y; Tsuge, H, 1999)
" During 21 days of pair-feeding against the vitamin B6-deficient diet group, body weight gain, urinary excretion of xanthurenic acid and pyridoxic acid were measured."3.69Feeding experiments of pyridoxine derivatives as vitamin B6. ( Hayakawa, T; Maeno, M; Morimoto, Y; Suzuki, Y; Tsuge, H, 1997)
