Ketone bodies were assayed in the urine of ten-week-old vitamin B12-deficient rats by a high-performance liquid chromatography. The urinary excretion of ketone bodies (352.5 +/- 68.3 mumol/day) as well as of methylmalonic acid was increased significantly by dietary vitamin B12 deficiency.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007657 Ketone Bodies The metabolic substances ACETONE; 3-HYDROXYBUTYRIC ACID; and acetoacetic acid (ACETOACETATES). They are produced in the liver and kidney during FATTY ACIDS oxidation and used as a source of energy by the heart, muscle and brain. Acetone Bodies,Bodies, Acetone,Bodies, Ketone
D008297 Male Males
D008764 Methylmalonic Acid A malonic acid derivative which is a vital intermediate in the metabolism of fat and protein. Abnormalities in methylmalonic acid metabolism lead to methylmalonic aciduria. This metabolic disease is attributed to a block in the enzymatic conversion of methylmalonyl CoA to succinyl CoA. Acid, Methylmalonic

D014806 Vitamin B 12 Deficiency A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of VITAMIN B 12 in the diet, characterized by megaloblastic anemia. Since vitamin B 12 is not present in plants, humans have obtained their supply from animal products, from multivitamin supplements in the form of pills, and as additives to food preparations. A wide variety of neuropsychiatric abnormalities is also seen in vitamin B 12 deficiency and appears to be due to an undefined defect involving myelin synthesis.
