Vitamins essential for human health are grouped according to whether they are soluble in water (hydrophilic) or in non-polar solvents (lipophilic). The hydrophilic vitamins are vitamin C and a series known as the vitamin B complex. Vitamin C is a reducing agent, whereas the vitamin B series are components of coenzymes. For example, riboflavin (vitamin B2) is a precursor of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and pantothenate (vitamin B5) is a component of coenzyme A. Indeed, several coenzymes contain a vitamin as part of their structure; this relation is undoubtedly responsible for creating an ?essential? role for the vitamin. Since vitamins are involved in a wide range of biological processes and cell function, these are considered as essential nutrients. The essential nature of vitamins as well as their unique biochemistry, molecular mechanisms and cellular function in health and disease are emphasized in this book which will serve as a highly useful resource for health professionals, nutritional scientists, medical students, fellows, residents, and graduate students. 410 0$aAdvances in Biochemistry in Health and Disease,$x2512-2150 ;$v29 606 $aClinical biochemistry 606 $aBiochemistry 606 $aMetabolism 606 $aCytology 606 $aCytology 606 $aNeurosciences 606 $aMedical Biochemistry 606 $aBiochemistry 606 $aMetabolic Pathways 606 $aCell Biology 606 $aMetabolism 606 $aNeuroscience 615 0$aClinical biochemistry. 615 0$aBiochemistry. 615 0$aMetabolism. 615 0$aCytology. 615 0$aCytology. 615 0$aNeurosciences. 615 14$aMedical Biochemistry. 615 24$aBiochemistry. 615 24$aMetabolic Pathways. 615 24$aCell Biology. 615 24$aMetabolism. 615 24$aNeuroscience. 676 $a612,015 700 $aShah$b Anureet K$01738793 701 $aTappia$b Paramjit S$01328369 701 $aDhalla$b Naranjan S$01738794 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910864183403321 996 $aHydrophilic Vitamins in Health and Disease$94166406 997 $aUNINA
