Benfotiamine is a lipid-soluble form of vitamin B1 (thiamine).{37093} In vitro, it corrects defective replication of, and prevents formation of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) in, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) grown under high glucose conditions.{37094} In vivo, administration of benfotiamine increases nerve conduction velocity (NCV) and prevents microalbuminuria, proteinuria, and formation of AGEs in mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes.{37093,37095} Benfotiamine reduces liver levels of aspartate and alanine aminotransferases, markers of hepatic damage, and lipid peroxidation in a rat model of acute ethanol intoxication.{37096} Administration of benfotiamine reduces the number of amyloid plaques and amount of phosphorylated tau in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease.{37097} It also improves spatial memory performance in the Morris water maze.

Description

A lipid-soluble form of vitamin B1; corrects defective replication of, and prevents formation of AGEs in, HUVECs grown under high glucose conditions; increases NCV and prevents microalbuminuria, proteinuria, and formation of AGEs in mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes; reduces levels of aspartate and alanine aminotransferase and lipid peroxidation in livers in a rat model of acute ethanol intoxication; reduces the number of amyloid plaques and amount of phosphorylated tau in brains in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease
