text: It has been reported that nicotinamide-overload induces oxidative stress associated
with insulin resistance, the key feature of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This
study aimed to investigate the effects of B vitamins in T2DM. Glucose tolerance
tests (GTT) were carried out in adult Sprague-Dawley rats treated with or without
cumulative doses of B vitamins. More specifically, insulin tolerance tests (ITT)
were also carried out in adult Sprague-Dawley rats treated with or without cumulative
doses of Vitamin B3. We found that cumulative Vitamin B1 and Vitamin B3 administration
significantly increased the plasma H2O2 levels associated with high insulin levels.
Only Vitamin B3 reduced muscular and hepatic glycogen contents. Cumulative administration
of nicotinic acid, another form of Vitamin B3, also significantly increased plasma
insulin level and H2O2 generation. Moreover, cumulative administration of nicotinic
acid or nicotinamide impaired glucose metabolism. This study suggested that excess
Vitamin B1 and Vitamin B3 caused oxidative stress and insulin resistance.
