23.
Pyridoxine 5-phosphate oxidase is the enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limited step of the B 6 metabolism pathway.

Temporary impairment of proprioception has also been known to occur from an overdose of vitamin B6 ( pyridoxine and pyridoxamine ).
25.
Lack of biotin, pyridoxine ( vitamin B 6 ) and riboflavin ( vitamin B 2 ) may also be a cause.
26.
A study published in 2005 suggests that the addition of pyridoxine ( vitamin B6 ) may reduce some of the psychiatric symptoms.
27.
These pyridoxine-dependent seizures have been linked to the failure to oxidize ?-AASA in patients due to mutated antiquitin.
28.
It was produced in 1961 by Merck Laboratories by bonding 2 vitamin B 6 compounds ( pyridoxine ) together with a disulfide bridge.
29.
Once a peripheral neuropathy has occurred, INH must be stopped and pyridoxine should be given at a dose of 50 mg thrice daily.
30.
Pyridoxine, nicotinic acid, p-aminobenzoic acid and biotin are vitamins important for cellulose production whereas pantothenate and riboflavin have opposing effects.
