Name | Riboflavin |
Description | Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is a natural product, an endogenous human metabolite, and a micronutrient. Riboflavin is essential for the formation of two major coenzymes, flavin mononucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide. Riboflavin is involved in energy metabolism, cellular respiration, and antibody production, as well as normal growth and development. |
In vitro | METHODS: Rat pancreatic islet cells were treated with Riboflavin (10 µM) for 3 days and cell viability was measured by Trypan blue assay.
RESULTS: Riboflavin supplementation had no effect on the viability of HEK293T17 cells. [1]
METHODS: Rainbow trout gonadal cells RTG-2 were treated with Riboflavin (10 µM) for 24 h. Islet number was measured by DTZ staining.
RESULTS: Riboflavin-treated islets had modest but statistically significantly higher recovery rates of 75.2±1.6% and 69.3±2.0%, respectively. [2] |
In vivo | METHODS: To investigate the effects on LPS-induced shock in mice, Riboflavin (1-10 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally into BALB/c mice, followed by LPS.
RESULTS: High doses of Riboflavin reduced LPS-induced mortality by increasing HSP25 expression. [3] |
