✔️ Pharmacology

Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, is a water-soluble micronutrient that is essential for human health. It, like the other B vitamins, aids in energy production by assisting in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Vitamin B2 is also required for red blood cell formation and respiration, antibody production, and the regulation of human growth and reproduction. It is necessary for healthy skin, nails, hair, and overall health, including thyroid activity regulation. Riboflavin can also help prevent or treat a variety of eye diseases, including cataracts in some cases. It binds to the enzymes riboflavin hydrogenase, riboflavin kinase, and riboflavin synthase. Riboflavin is a precursor to flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) (FAD). Riboflavin's antioxidant activity stems primarily from its role as a precursor of FAD and as a cofactor in the production of antioxidant-reduced glutathione. Reduced glutathione is a cofactor for glutathione peroxidase, which contains selenium. The main antioxidant enzyme is glutathione peroxidase. The FAD-containing enzyme glutathione reductase produces reduced glutathione.
