Vitamin B12 and folate deficiencies can cause megaloblastic anemia. The document discusses the roles of vitamin B12 and folate in DNA synthesis and cell maturation. It outlines the pathways of vitamin B12 and folate metabolism and consequences of deficiencies. Diagnosis involves evaluating mean corpuscular volume, blood smear examination, and levels of vitamin B12, folate, methylmalonic acid and homocysteine. Treatment involves vitamin B12 and folate supplementation.

41. 30 Treatment B12 can be supplemented in healthy subjects by oral pill; sublingual pill, liquid, or strip; intranasal spray; or by injection. B12 is available singly or in combination with other supplements. B12 supplements are available in forms including cyanocobalamin, hydroxocobalamin, methylcobalamin, and adenosylcobalamin (sometimes called "cobamamide" or "dibencozide"). Oral treatments involve giving 250Β ug to 1Β mg of B12 daily.[28] Vitamin B12 can be given as intramuscular injections of hydroxycobalamin, methylcobalamin, or cyanocobalamin. Body stores (in the liver) are refilled with half a dozen injections in the first couple of weeks and then maintenance with monthly to quarterly injections throughout the life of the patient. B12 has traditionally been given parenterally to ensure absorption. However, oral replacement is now an accepted route, as it has become increasingly appreciated that sufficient quantities of B12 are absorbed when large doses are given. This absorption does not rely on the presence of intrinsic factor or an intact ileum. Generally 1 to 2Β mg daily is required as a large dose [3]. By contrast, the typical Western diet contains 5β7Β Β΅g of B12 (Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Daily Value [29]).
44. 33 Hematological findings The blood film can point towards vitamin deficiency: Decreased red blood cell (RBC) count and hemoglobin levels[citation needed] Increased mean corpuscular volume (MCV, >95 fl) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) Normal mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC, 32-36 g/dL) The reticulocyte count is decreased due to destruction of fragile and abnormal megaloblastic erythroid precursor. The platelet count may be reduced.[citation needed] Neutrophil granulocytes may show multisegmented nuclei ("senile neutrophil"). This is thought to be due to decreased production and a compensatory prolonged lifespan for circulating neutrophils, which increase numbers of nuclear segments with age.[citation needed] Anisocytosis (increased variation in RBC size) and poikilocytosis (abnormally shaped RBCs). Macrocytes (larger than normal RBCs) are present. Ovalocytes (oval-shaped RBCs) are present. Howell-Jolly bodies (chromosomal remnant) also present. Blood chemistries will also show: In increased lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) level. The isozyme is LDH-2 which is typical of the serum and hematopoetic cells. Increased homocysteine and methylmalonic acid in B12 deficiency Increased homocysteine in folat
53. 41 Vitamin B12 Analogues Vitamin B12 is a coenzyme: it is needed for enzymes to do their job of changing one molecule into another. As vitamins go, B12 is large. One part of its structure is known as the corrin nucleus, which holds an atom of cobalt. The corrin resembles the heme of hemoglobin which holds an atom of iron. Any molecule that contains a corrin nucleus is considered a corrinoid. The corrin plus other atoms make up the cobalamin part of B12. There are many different cobalamins and they are named after their attachments. For example, methylcobalamin is cobalamin with a methyl group (one carbon and three hydrogens) attached. All corrinoids (including all cobalamins) are considered B12 analogues. Many corrinoids, and possibly even some cobalamins, are not useable by human B12 enzymes. These are considered inactive B12 analogues.

82. 57 Methylmalonic acid (MMA) is a dicarboxylic acid that is a C-methylated derivative of malonate. Pathology Increased methylmalonic acid levels may indicate a vitamin B12 deficiency. However, it is sensitive without being specific. MMA is elevated in 90-98% of patients with B12 deficiency. This test may be overly sensitive, as 25-20% of patients over the age of 70 have elevated levels of MMA, but 25-33% of them do not have B12 deficiency. For this reason, MMA is not routinely recommended in the elderly. [1] An excess is associated with methylmalonicacidemia. MMA concentrations in blood are measured by Gas chromatographicMass spectrometry
83. 58 Folic acid and vitamin B12Large amounts of folic acid can mask the damaging effects of vitamin B12 deficiency by correcting the megaloblastic anemia caused by vitamin B12 deficiency [3,5] without correcting the neurological damage that also occurs [1,31]. Moreover, preliminary evidence suggests that high serum folate levels might not only mask vitamin B12 deficiency, but could also exacerbate the anemia and worsen the cognitive symptoms associated with vitamin B12 deficiency [6,11]. Permanent nerve damage can occur if vitamin B12 deficiency is not treated. For these reasons, folic acid intake from fortified food and supplements should not exceed 1,000 mcg daily in healthy individuals [5].

119. 63 The present invention relates to a new method named the COBASORB test, which can be used for testing the cause of cobalamin malabsorption in humans. The COBASORB test contains three separate tests (first, second and third test) than can be performed separately, sequentially or in random order and number. The first test use non-radioactive cobalamin for ingestion, the second test uses non-radioactive cobalamin and recombinant intrinsic factor for ingestion and the third test uses recombinant haptocorrin saturated with cobalamin for ingestion. All three tests involve analysis of changes in the concentration of cobalamin saturated transcobalamin (holo-TC) and cobalamin saturated haptocorrin (holo-HC) in the blood. Also disclosed are fits suitable for use in these methods.
120. 64 Salivary haptocorrin, also known as the R-protein, binds strongly to Vitamin B12 (after it is released from food by gastric pepsin), stabilizing it and preventing its breakdown in the low-pH environment of the stomach. The complex is absorbed by ilealvilli into the blood. HC accounts for 10-40% of B12 serum level.
