Visceral Fat Deposits and the Metabolic SyndromeHomo sapiens
Although abdominal obesity or visceral obesity is considered to be one of the components of metabolic syndrome and to have an important role in a cluster of cardiovascular risks, there is no consensus about the definition and diagnostic criteria for this syndrome, probably because there is considerable disagreement about the location and definition of abdominal obesity or visceral obesity. The importance of diagnosing metabolic syndrome, in which visceral fat accumulation plays an essential role in the development of multiple risk factors, should be emphasized because lifestyle modification for the reduction of visceral fat may be very effective for the reduction of risks of this type, namely metabolic syndrome in the narrow sense.

Vismodegib Drug MetabolismHomo sapiens
Vismodegib is a drug that is not metabolized by the human body as determined by current research and biotransformer analysis. Vismodegib passes through the liver and is then excreted from the body mainly through the kidney.

Vitamin A DeficiencyRattus norvegicus
Vitamin A deficiency can be caused by many causes. A defect in the BCMO1 gene which codes for beta,beta-carotene 15,15’-monooxygenase is one of them. Beta,beta-carotene 15,15’-monooxygenase catalyzes the chemical reaction where the two substrates are beta-carotene and O2, whereas its product is retinal. A defect in this enzyme results in decrease of levels of retinal and vitamin A in serum; Signs and symptoms include night blindness, poor adaptation to darkness, dry skin and hair.

Vitamin B1/Thiamine MetabolismSaccharomyces cerevisiae
The biosynthesis of thiamine begins with pyrithiamine reacting with thiaminase 2 resulting in the release of 4-Amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyrimidine. The latter compound reacts with a hydroxymethylpyrimidine/phosphomethylpyrimidine kinase resulting in the release of 4-amino-2-methyl-5-phosphomethylpyrimidine. The latter compound reacts with a hydroxymethylpyrimidine/phosphomethylpyrimidine kinase resulting in the release of 2-Methyl-4-amino-5-hydroxymethylpyrimidine diphosphate. The latter compound reacts with 4-methyl-5-(2-phosphonooxyethyl)thiazole, a product of oxythiamine metabolism, through a Thiamine biosynthetic bifunctional enzyme resultin in the release of a Thiamine monophosphate. The latter compound is phosphatased through a acid phosphatase complex resulting in the release of thiamine. The latter compound is phosphorylated through a thiamin pyrophosphokinase resulting in the release of thiamine pyrophosphate.
