Water soluble vitamin

Vitamin A The retinoids, a family of molecules that are related to retinol (Vitamin A) They are essential for vision, reproduction, growth, maintenance of epithelial tissues. Vitamin A is often used as a collective term for several related biologically active molecules. The term retinoids includes both natural and synthetic forms of vitamin A:

Structure of vitamin A Retinol: A primary alcohol containing a β-ionone ring with an unsaturated side chain retinol is found in animal tissues as a retinyl ester with long-chain fatty acids retinol mediates most of the actions of the retinoids, except for vision, which depends on retinal. Retinal, the aldehyde derived from the oxidation of retinol. Retinal and retinol can readily be interconverted.

Structure of vitamin A (Cont’d) Retinoic acid: This is the acid derived from the oxidation of retinal. Retinoic acid cannot reduced in the body, therefore, cannot give rise to either retinal or retinol. β-carotene: plant foods contain β-carotene, which can be oxidatively cleaved in the intestine to yield two molecules of retinal.

Function of vitamin A Visual cycle: Vitamin A is a component of the visual pigments of rod and cone cells. Growth: Animal deprived of vitamin A initially lose their appetites. Bone growth is slow and fails to keep pace with growth of the nervous system, leading to central nervous system damage. Reproduction: Retinol and retinal are essential for normal reproduction Maintenance of epithelial cells: Vitamin A is essential for normal differentiation of epithelial tissues and mucus secretion.

Distribution of vitamin A Liver, Kidney, cream, butter, egg yolk Yellow, fruits and dark green vegetables are good dietary sources of the carotenes, which serve as precursors of vitamin A.

Dietary deficiency Night blindness: is one of the earliest signs of vitamin a deficiency. The visual threshold is increased, making it difficult to see in dim light. Prolonged deficiency leads to an irreversible loss in the number of visual cells. Severe deficiency leads to dryness of the conjunctiva and cornea. If untreated result blindness Over 500,000 children worldwide are blinded each year caused by insufficient vitamin A in the diet. Acne and psoriasis: Dermatologic problems such as acne and psoriasis are effectively treated with retinoic acid or its derivatives.

Toxicity of retinoids Excessive intake of vitamin A: produces a toxic syndrome called hypervitaminosis A. Amounts exceeding 7.5 mg/day of retinol should be avoided. Pregnant women particularly should not ingest excessive quantities of vitamin A because of its potential for causing congenital malformation in the developing fetus.

Vitamin D The D vitamins are a group of sterols that have a hormone-like function. The active molecule, 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (1,25 (OH)2 D3 ). The most prominent actions of 1,25-(OH)2 D3 are to regulate the plasma levels of calcium and phosphorus. Increasing uptake of calcium by the intestine Minimizing loss of calcium by the kidney Stimulating resorption of bone

Source of vitamin D Exogenous: Diet Endogenous:7-dehydrocholesterol, an intermediate in cholesterol synthesis is converted to cholecalciferol in the dermis and epidermis of humans exposed to sunlight Preformed vitamin D is a dietary requirement only in individuals with limited exposure to sunlight.

Distribution of vitamin D Vitamin D occurs naturally in Fatty fish Liver Egg yolk Milk RDA for adults is 200IU of vitamin D

Deficiency of vitamin D Nutritional rickets: Vitamin D deficiency causes a net demineralization of bone, resulting in rickets in children osteomalacia in adults. Rickets is characterized by the continued formation of the collagen matrix of bone, but incomplete mineralization, resulting in soft, pliable bones. osteomalacia, demineralization of preexisting bones increase their susceptibility of fracture.

Deficiency of vitamin D (Cont’d) Insufficient exposure to daylight and/or deficiencies in vitamin D consumption occur predominantly in infants and the elderly. Vitamin D deficiency is more common in the northern latitudes, because less vitamin D synthesis occurs in the skin as a result of reduced exposure to ultraviolet light. The RDA of 200 IU/day may be insufficient, because higher doses of 800 IU/day have been shown to reduce the incidence of osteoporotic fractures .

Toxicity of vitamin D Vitamin D is the most toxic of all vitamins. Like all fat-soluble vitamins, vitamin D can be stored in the body and is only slowly metabolized. High doses (100,000 IU for weeks or months) can cause loss of appetite, nausea, thirst, and stupor. Enhanced calcium absorption and bone resorption results in hypercalcemia, which can lead to deposition of calcium in many organs, particularly the arteries and kidneys.

Vitamin K The principal role of vitamin K is in the post-translation modification of various blood clotting factors, in which it serves as a coenzyme in the carboxylation of certain glutamic acid residues present in these proteins. Vitamin K exists in several forms, for example, in plants as phylloquinone (vitamin K1) in intestinal bacterial flora as menaquinone (vitamin K2). menadione as synthetic derivative of vitamin K, is available for therapy purpose.

Distribution of vitamin K Vitamin K is found in Cabbage Cauliflower Spinach Egg yolk Liver There is also extensive synthesis of the vitamin by the bacteria in the gut. There is no RDA for vitamin K, but 70 to 140 mg/day is recommended as an adequate level.

Deficiency of vitamin K A true vitamin K deficiency is unusual because adequate amounts are generally produced by intestinal bacteria or obtained from the diet. If the bacterial population in the gut is decreased, for example by antibiotics, the amount of endogenously formed vitamin is depressed, and can lead to hypoprothrombinemia in the marginally malnourished individual Deficiency of vitamin K in the newborn because: Newborns have sterile intestines and cannot initially synthesize vitamin K.

Toxicity of vitamin K Prolonged administration of large doses of vitamin K can produce hemolytic anemia jaundice in the infant due to toxic effects on the membrane of red blood cells.

Vitamin E The vitamin E consist of eight naturally occurring tocopherols, of which α-tocopherol is the most active. The function of vitamin E is an antioxidant in prevention of nonenzymic oxidation of cell components (for example, polyunsaturated fatty acids) by molecular oxygen and free radicals.

Distribution of vitamin E Vitamin E found in Vegetable oils (rich Liver and eggs The RDA for α-tocopherol is 10 mg for men and 8 mg for women. Vitamin E requirement increases as the intake of polyunsaturated fatty acid increases.

Deficiency of vitamin E Vitamin E deficiency: is almost entirely restricted to premature infants. When observed in adults, it is usually associated with defective lipid absorption or transport. The signs of human vitamin E deficiency include sensitivity of erythrocytes to peroxide, and the appearance of abnormal cellular membranes.  toxicity of vitamin E the least toxic of the fat-soluble vitamins no toxicity has been observed at dose of 300 mg/day.
