Description

Thiothiamine is a water-soluble vitamin that belongs to the B-complex family. It is a cofactor for the enzyme DOPA β-hydroxylase, which converts dopamine to norepinephrine. Thiothiamine has been shown to protect against oxidative damage and may also have a role in treating autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. In addition, thiothiamine is used as an antioxidant in wastewater treatment and as an additive in animal feeds. The human pharmacokinetics of thiothiamine has been studied in detail, with a focus on the metabolic pathways of this vitamin and its glycoside derivatives. Studies have also examined the mechanisms of reactions involving thiamine intermediates.
