Abstract:
Pyrithiamine-induced thiamine deficiency (PTD) in the rat results in a metabolic disorder associated with selective cerebral vulnerability. The basis of the histological lesions that develop in areas that include the thalamus, medial geniculate, and inferior colliculus is undetermined but an underlying glutamate-mediated form of excitotoxicity may be responsible. This work examines the possibility that PTD leads to changes in extracellular glutamate concentration, membrane polarization status, and gene expression consistent with a decreased ability to maintain homeostatic integrity.<br>At the

Abstract:
Diabetes is a chronic epidemic compounded by a burden of vascular complications including diabetic nephropathy. Diabetic nephropathy affects ~40% of patients and is characterised by increased urinary albumin excretion and decreased glomerular filtration rate. Diabetic patients exhibit ~75% decreased plasma thiamine concentration, linked to increased renal thiamine clearance. In streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, decreased plasma thiamine concentration was also associated with a reduction in expression and activity of transketolase. Transketolase is a thiamine pyrophosphate-dependent enzyme

Master of Science<br>Department of Grain Science and Industry<br>Greg Aldrich<br>Since 2010, there have been seven recalls related to thiamine deficiency in cat food products (FDA, 2017; FSA, 2017). Cats have a high requirement of thiamine (5.6 mg/kg), and deficiencies can lead to death within a month if not treated (AAFCO, 2017). A few studies have been published regarding the impact of retort processing on thiamine loss in canned pet food but no work has been reported on heat penetration in other containers (pouches and trays). Therefore, our objectives were to determine the effect of contai

Pyrithiamine-induced thiamine deficiency in rats is a well-established animal model of Wernicke's Encephalopathy (WE). This thesis project, submitted as four articles, presents an examination of metabolic events that contribute to the selective neuronal lesions observed in the medial thalamus (MT) of thiamine-deficient (TD) rat. In addition, the phenomenon of glucose-precipitated worsening of neurological status in WE patients (Wallis et al., 1978; Watson et al., 1981) is explored.<br>Lactate accumulation is known to occur selectively in regions of the TD brain, which ultimately express neuron

Abstract:
Recruitment failure of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) in the Great Lakes has been attributed in part to the consumption of alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) by adult lake trout, leading to Thiamine Deficiency Complex (TDC) and early mortality in fry. The current understanding of thiamine deficiency in lake trout fry is based on information from culture and hatchery settings, which do not represent conditions fry experience in the wild and may influence the occurrence of TDC. In the wild, lake trout fry have access to zooplankton immediately following hatching; previous studies found that wild

L’excitotoxicité est un mécanisme physiopathologique majeur impliqué dans la pathogenèse de la déficience en thiamine (DT). Dans les régions cérébrales vulnérables à la DT, on observe une mort cellulaire induite par excitotoxicité dont l’origine semble être la conséquence d’une perturbation du métabolisme énergétique mitochondrial, d’une dépolarisation membranaire soutenue et d’une diminution de l’absorption du glutamate par les astrocytes suite à la diminution de l’expression des transporteurs EAAT1 et EAAT2.

<p>Many salmonid populations are supported through captive breeding programs in which hatchery production supplies fish for reintroduction or supplementation efforts. In Lake Champlain, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) are the subject of a reintroduction effort that is complicated by the occurrence of thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency in adult salmon returning to spawn. This deficiency results in high offspring mortality rates that must be mitigated by hatchery interventions (reviewed in Chapter 1).

Abstract:
Thiamin is a required coenzyme in the production of energy to fuel myocardial contraction. Therefore, thiamin deficiency (TD) may contribute to myocardial weakness by limiting the available energy for myocyte contraction. Previous studies report a wide range for the prevalence of TD in patients with heart failure (HF) (3% to 91%). These trials are limited by their small sample size, indirect measurement of thiamin status, exclusion criteria, and their focus on hospitalized patients. Therefore, this study determined the prevalence of TD in a large (n=100) group of ambulatory patients with HF, u

Abstract:
Thiamin transport in Escherichia coli is a model system to establish the tolerance of derivatives for transport into the cell. Since little is known about what types of thiamin derivatives may be successfully taken into the cell through the transport system, a series of thiamin derivatives are synthesized. A thiamin amino analog is synthesized and tested to determine the use of the analog as an alternate source of thiamin for growth of an E. coli thiamin mutant. Formate, acetate, and benzoate thiamin esters are synthesized and tested as alternate sources for growth of an E. coli thiamin mutant
