research Further Observations on Riboflavin as a Food Factor in Economy of Food Utilization
This study on ten pairs of male rats using a paired feeding method revealed that riboflavin deficiency significantly impacts weight gain and health. Riboflavin-deficient rats gained only 6.1 g on average over 125 days, compared to 61.3 g in controls receiving 20 μg of riboflavin daily. Unlike thiamine deficiency, riboflavin deficiency does not lead to severe anorexia but may result in varied food intake levels. Deficient rats exhibited symptoms such as alopecia, dermatitis, rough hair, conjunctivitis, keratitis, and premature senility. The study suggests that riboflavin is crucial for oxidative-enzymic processes in metabolism, and its deficiency may lead to metabolic waste and organism collapse.

research The retarded hair growth ( rhg ) mutation in mice is an allele of ornithine aminotransferase ( Oat )
The study investigated the genetic basis of the retarded hair growth (rhg) mutation in mice and identified it as an allele of the ornithine aminotransferase (Oat) gene. Researchers found a specific G to C transversion in the Oat gene associated with the rhg allele, leading to a glycine to alanine substitution. This mutation was shown to be responsible for the retarded hair growth phenotype through genetic crosses with mice carrying a null mutation in Oat. The study also noted that mice with the rhg mutation exhibited chorioretinal degeneration, similar to that seen in OatΔ/OatΔ mice, suggesting that the rhg mutant could serve as a model for studying gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina (GACR) in humans.
