In the liver, pyridoxine is essential for glucose production from amino acids via its role as coenzyme for the transaminase enzymes. (getcompletecare.com)
Pyridoxine is also needed by the liver and muscles to make stored glycogen available for glucose production, and to synthesize niacin from the amino acid tryptophan. (getcompletecare.com)

Seizures1
Findings in untreated individuals can include late-onset seizures beginning between late infancy and age three years, seizures that initially respond to anti-seizure medication and then become intractable, seizures during early life that do not respond to pyridoxine but are subsequently controlled with pyridoxine several months later, and prolonged seizure-free intervals (=5 months) that occur after discontinuation of pyridoxine.

Disorders2

Patients1
In approximately one third of patients with PH1, pyridoxine treatment decreases oxalate excretion and prevent kidney stone formation. (wikipedia.org)
In addition, Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is used to treat PH1 because alanine glyoxylate transaminase requires pyridoxine as cofactor. (wikipedia.org)
Vitamin5
Pyridoxine (vitamin B 6 ) deficiency is sometimes observed in adults with high doses of isoniazid and is considered probably due to its competition with pyridoxal phosphate for the enzyme apotryptophanase. (nih.gov)
There are methodological issues, particularly whether or not pyridoxal phosphate is used in the transaminase assays, and although this can have specific effects when patient samples are deficient in this vitamin, these method differences generally have mild effects on the usefulness of the assays or the ratio. (mikrobik.net)
[ 51 ] Pyridoxine (vitamin B 6 ) is added routinely to the treatment regimen in a dosage of 25-50 mg daily, as its deficiency has been documented during D -penicillamine therapy. (medscape.com)
One of the undesirable side-effects of long term treatment with high-dose isoniazid is peripheral neuropathy that develops secondary to a deficiency of vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) during therapy. (tbksp.org)
