Influence of methylcobalamin on energy and protein homeostasis during fasting

The goal of our work was a structural and functional analysis of the state of the fat-carbohydrate (energy) and protein metabolism in rats under conditions of complete alimentary fasting while maintaining the drinking regimen and administering of methylcobalamin. The state of the ultrastructural elements ensuring energy homeostasis was studied. The activity of a variety of compounds in the blood was determined. The results of the studies showed methylcobalamin to increase the adaptation mechanisms maintaining both energy and plastic homeostasis in a fasting organism.
