Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS) is a thiamine deficiency-induced neurodegenerative disorder that culminates in a bilateral diencephalic lesion and severe amnesia. The pyrithiamine-induced thiamine deficiency (PTD) animal paradigm models the neuropathology and behavioral impairments observed in WKS. A hallmark feature of WKS/PTD is hippocampal dysfunction in the absence of anatomical lesion. Extensive literature exists demonstrating a vital role for neurogenesis in hippocampus-based learning and memory function. Thus, a reduction of hippocampal neurogenesis may contribute to the amnestic syndrome associated with WKS and PTD. The current series of experiments sought to determine the consequences of PTD treatment on hippocampal neurogenesis. In the first experiment (Chapter 2), stage-dependent alterations of neurogenesis and gliogenesis were assessed in the hippocampal granule cell layer. Experimental thiamine deficiency increased the proliferation, but not survival, of progenitor cells. In ...

Thiamine (vitamin B1) is an essential nutrient that serves as a cofactor for a number of enzymes, mostly with mitochondrial localization. Some thiamine-dependent enzymes are involved in energy metabolism and biosynthesis of nucleic acids whereas others are part of the antioxidant machinery. The brain is highly vulnerable to thiamine deficiency due to its heavy reliance on mitochondrial ATP production. This is more evident during rapid growth (i.e., perinatal periods and children) in which thiamine deficiency is commonly associated with either malnutrition or genetic defects. Thiamine deficiency contributes to a number of conditions spanning from mild neurological and psychiatric symptoms (confusion, reduced memory, and sleep disturbances) to severe encephalopathy, ataxia, congestive heart failure, muscle atrophy, and even death. This review discusses the current knowledge on thiamine deficiency and associated morbidity of neurological and psychiatric disorders, with special emphasis on the pediatric

If severe symptoms and signs of thiamine deficiency are present, thiamine is prescribed.. Intervention 1 : severe symptom (heart failure, convulsion, or coma) : 50 mg thiamin administered very slowly intravenously, followed by a daily intramuscular dose of 10 mg for a week, and finally followed by 3-5 mg of thiamine per day orally for at least 6 weeks ...

Thiamine is essential for normal brain function and its deficiency causes metabolic impairment, specific lesions, oxidative damage and reduced adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN). Thiamine precursors with increased bioavailability, especially benfotiamine, exert neuroprotective effects not only for thiamine deficiency (TD), but also in mouse models of neurodegeneration. As it is known that AHN is impaired by stress in rodents, we exposed C57BL6/J mice to predator stress for 5 consecutive nights and studied the proliferation (number of Ki67-positive cells) and survival (number of BrdU-positive cells) of newborn immature neurons in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus ...

A condition of thiamine deficiency can occur if enough thiamine, or Vitamin B1, is not included in the diet, or cannot be absorbed in the digestive system. - Wag!

Treatment of severe acute thiamine deficiency is done by giving high doses of intravenous thiamine for several days. If the deficiency is recent complete recovery is expected. However if it is severe and chronic with marked mental and motor impairment, complete recovery occurs in only half of the patients. Thiamine deficiency is diagnosed by the history of frequent vomiting and the symptoms listed above. A blood test confirm the diagnosis, but treatment is never delayed because the test can take several days to process ...

Thiamine levels in canned pet food are highly unpredictable due to high heat processing methods; both cats and dogs are at risk for deficiency, but cats need 3 times more, making them at much risk for developing a deficiency.

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) is an essential nutrient as it plays a vital role in carbohydrate, protein and lipid metabolism. Thiamine deficiency can develop after only one month of a thiamine-free diet.

Thiamine deficiency was a serious problem in days gone by or so we thought. Over the last two years I have been asked to help with two serious out breaks, one in New Zealand and one in Victoria Australia. In both cases there seemed to be little understanding of the issue from local authorities. Perhaps as it is considered a past problem as it certainly was when I was young all those years ago. When much of NZ and Australia were initially being developed and pastures planted thiamine def was common, this was due to the high level of decomposing dead plant matter in the base of pastures due to older mature pastures which were not grazed down. A problem can occur in dairy herds that are sent off farm to winter graze on hill country where they can be grazed on older more mature pastures. See all below for more info Thiamine (B1) deficiency, commonly known as Star Gazing (Berri Berri in humans) results in either short or long term brain damage which depends directly on severity of the problem and the ...

A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of THIAMINE in the diet, characterized by anorexia, irritability, and weight loss. Later, patients experience weakness, peripheral neuropathy, headache, and tachycardia. In addition to being caused by a poor diet, thiamine deficiency in the United States most commonly occurs as a result of alcoholism, since ethanol interferes with thiamine absorption. In countries relying on polished rice as a dietary staple, BERIBERI prevalence is very high. (From Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p1171 ...

Eight clinically proved cases of prolonged thiamine deficiency were evaluated by routine pathologic study. The microscopic features were evaluated by comparison with sections of myocardium obtained from normal individuals and individuals suffering from cardiac diseases of other varieties. No specific transitory or permanent alterations were demonstrable. It is concluded that beriberi heart disease is largely the result of a reversible biochemical abnormality and is not characterized by specific pathologic lesions.. ...

Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) are a major public health concern, as it is estimated that 2-5% of children are exposed to alcohol at some point during prenatal development. FASD have been shown to cause damage to multiple brain regions, but research shows that the hippocampus is especially sensitive to alcohol exposure. This damage to the hippocampus explains, in part, deficits in learning and memory that are hallmark symptoms of FASD. The acetylcholine neurotransmitter system plays a major role in learning and memory, and the hippocampus is one of its main targets. This experiment used a rodent model of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome to examine neurochemical and behavioral changes as a result of developmental alcohol exposure, with a focus on the hippocampal acetylcholine system. Alcohol (3.0 g/kg) was administered via intragastric intubation to developing rat pups (PD 2-10). There were three treatment groups: ethanol-exposed, intubated control, and non-treated control. In Experiment 1, in vivo

As the first B vitamin to be discovered, thiamin can rightly claim the name of vitamin B1. This nutrient is essential to normal growth and development. It participates in converting the carbohydrates from foods into energy and promotes proper functioning of the heart and nervous systems. At one time, cases of severe thiamin deficiency were not uncommon in the United States. That changed in the 1940s, when authorities started to require that that any B vitamin removed during grain processing be added back in. Today, vitamin B1 is so widely available in foods that most people get more than enough to satisfy basic requirements. Whole grains and enriched grain products, from cereals to pasta and white rice, now constitute a primary source of thiamin for many Americans. Other excellent food sources include dried beans, nuts, and lean pork. Nonetheless, there are still groups at risk of developing a thiamin deficiency: older adults and alcoholics in particular. There are also certain ailments for ...

WHAT DOES THIAMIN (B1) DO FOR US?. Thiamine exists within us in several forms the most active of which is thiamine pyrophosphate.. Together with niacin (B3) , riboflavin (B2) and lipoic acid, thiamine assists a small but important number of enzymes in the production of energy from food. It is a coenzyme or partner in creating energy from sugars and in the synthesis of 3 amino acids: leucine, valine and isoleucine. Brain cells require a great deal more thiamin than any other part of the body.. Energy created from food creates reactions throughout the body and helps us maintain our health and strength.. Up to 30 milligrams of excess thiamin are stored in the skeletal muscles, heart, brain, liver and the kidneys. Thiamine is also found in its free form (unphosphorylated) in blood plasma, milk, cerebrospinal fluid and most fluids outside the cells (extracellular fluid). Thiamin pyrophosphate is carried by red blood cells bound to proteins mainly albumin to cells thoughout the body.. Note: Lipoic ...

The goals of treatment of Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome are to control symptoms as much as possible and to prevent progression of the disorder.

Thiamin pyrophosphokinase (TPK) catalyzes the transfer of a pyrophosphate group from ATP to vitamin B1 (thiamin) to form the coenzyme thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP). Thus, TPK is important for the formation of a coenzyme required for central metabolic functions. The structure of thiamin pyrophosphokinase suggest that the enzyme may operate by a mechanism of pyrophosphoryl transfer similar to those described for pyrophosphokinases functioning in nucleotide biosynthesis (PUBMED:11435118 ...

The first symptoms of beriberi is weakness or fatigue. It is severe fatigue that is uncharacteristic for a persons level of daily activity or age. It is accompanied by a degree of apathy - lack of interest in life or other activities that were previously enjoyable. Often patients are diagnosed with depression at this point. The patient may be irritable, have difficulty concentrating and experience constant drowsiness.. All of these symptoms appear to further support a diagnosis of depression. A lack of appetite, nausea and abdominal pain are other non-specific symptoms that may be seen in the early stages. The first symptoms may be noticed as early as 1 week after ceasing thiamine intake although there may be small stores still present in the body.. ...

Thiamin is also known as vitamin B1. Historically it may have been the first vitamin to be discovered. Around 2600 BC the symptoms of thiamin deficiency were described in Chinese literature. Thiamin deficiency, or beriberi as it was commonly called, became a more frequent problem in some communities when white flour and polished rice were first introduced. Milling brown rice removes thiamin from the grain along with the fibrous outer layer of the grains of rice.. ...

Thiamine deficiency in its early stage induces anorexia, irritability, apathy, and generalized weakness. Prolonged thiamine deficiency causes beriberi, which is classically categorized as wet or dry, although there is considerable overlap. In either form of beriberi, patients may complain of pain and parathesia. Wet beriberi presents primarily with cardiovascular symptoms, due to impaired myocardial energy metabolism and dysautonomia, and can occur after 3 months of a thiamine-deficient diet. Patients present with an enlarged heart, tachycardia, high-output congestive heart failure, peripheral edema, and peripheral neuritis. Patients with dry beriberi present with a symmetric peripheral neuropathy of the motor and sensory systems with diminished reflexes. The neuropathy affects the legs most markedly, and patients have difficulty rising from a squatting position.. Alcoholic patients with chronic thiamine deficiency may also have central nervous system manifestations known as Wernickes ...

Thiamin is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin which is supplied primarily from cereals and enriched grains in the ordinary diet. The majority of absorbed thiamin combines with ATP in the body to form thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP). TPP is a coenzyme which is involved in a number of energy production reactions in the body (metabolism of carbohydrates and some amino acids) . Therefore, theoretically, TD reduces the release of metabolic energy in the tissues . The adverse effects of TD include biventricular myocardial failure, tachycardia, peripheral edema, and retention of sodium which occurs as a result of heart failure . Therefore, our assumption is that TD in CHF patients may result in depletion of cellular energy and subsequently impair cardiac function. Previous studies done on CHF patients with TD found that thiamin supplementation was associated with improvement in heart contractility.. Patients with heart failure are at an increased risk for TD, for many reasons such as malnutrition, anorexia ...
