Biochem/physiol Actions
Pyridoxine plays a key role in metabolism both carbohydrates and amino acids. It supports brain development and its deficiency levels may lead to depletion of ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels. Pyridoxine catalyzes the neurotransmitter biosynthesis like dopamine and serotonin. Pyridoxine in excess or deficient may lead to neuropathy.
