Abstract：
:The aim of this experiment was to clarify whether an amino acid supplement could enhance the therapeutic effect of vitamin B2 (riboflavin 5'-sodium phosphate; purity > 97%) in mice with lipopolysaccharide-induced shock. Six hours after injection of a lethal dose of lipopolysaccharide, treatment (6-h i.v. infusion) was commenced. All mice died in the groups treated with saline or aminolevane (an amino acids mixture used to treat hepatopathy); however, the survival rates in the vitamin B2 (10 mg/kg/6 h) and vitamin B2 plus aminolevane groups were 45% (P < 0.05) and 80% (P < 0.05), respectively. Valine (200 mg/kg/6 h) alone had little effect on the survival rate (10%), but the combination of vitamin B2 (10 mg/k/g/6 h) and valine was highly effective (80%, P < 0.05). Clinical trials of vitamin B2 plus amino acids for the treatment of patients with sepsis would appear to be warranted.
