title: [Interaction of functionally coupled vitamins in the distribution and metabolism of [14C]nicotinic acid in tissues and blood cells].
abstract: Leucocytes adsorb by two orders of magnitude more labeled nicotinic acid ([14C]Na) than erythrocytes (as calculated on a per cell basis). The dynamics of binding of labeled vitamin by leucocytes is biphasic with the formation of predominantly [14C]nicotinic coenzymes already at very short time intervals after their injection to rats. Simultaneous injections of thiamine, riboflavin, lipoate and pantotenate increased the level of total labeled nicotinate metabolites in the blood and leucocytes 2.1- and 4.1-fold, respectively. The metabolism of subcutaneously injected [14C]NA was predominantly localized in the digestive system with a markedly pronounced two-phase dynamics of changes of the level of total labeled metabolites in the liver and small intestine concomitant with their secretion together with digestive juices. The functionally coupled vitamins injected simultaneously sharply increased the incorporation of the total label into liver tissues (up to 45% of the injected dose against 33% in the control) and the increase in the level of [14C]pyridine nucleotides. Similar effects were observed upon accumulation of labeled metabolites of [14C]NA in small intestine membranes. The increase in the maximal accumulation of nicotinate under effects of other group B vitamins in brain, heart and spleen tissues correlated with the dynamics, of their accumulation in the blood. In the postmaximal period in cardiac muscle and brain tissues, the second increase in the [14C]NA binding correlated with the dynamics of its accumulation in the digestive system.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
