Video Summary:
This video is on Biochemistry/Pharmacology of vitamin K. It covers it's functions, mechanism of action, deficiency etc. Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin. It occurs in 3 types. K1 is synthesized by plants. K2 by bacteria and K3 is synthetic and water soluble. Its daily requirement is variable as it is synthesized by intestinal flora. Is about 100 microgram per day. Dietary sources are alfalfa, spinach, cabbage, cauliflower, other GLV, egg yolk, meat and dairy products. Absorption in intestine requires bile salts. Storage occurs mainly in liver. However, it declines rapidly without regular dietary intake. Vitamin K is required for synthesis if clotting factor II, VII, IX and X. They are carbonylated by gamma glutamyl carboxylase. The reaction converts active hydroquinone form of vitamin K into inactive epoxide form. Vitamin K reductase reactivates vitamin K utilizing NADH. Carboxylation of these factors is essential for their participation in coagulation. Also, vitamin K is required for synthesis of protein C and protein S which are anticoagulant factors and osteocalcin. Its deficiency can occur in new-borns as vitamin K does not enter placenta or breast milk in enough quantity, they have low storage and do not have intestinal microflora to synthesize vitamin K. Prolonged antibiotic use destroys intestinal bacteria and cause deficiency. Malabsorption can also cause deficiency of vitamin K. In hepatocellular disease patient develop features of vitamin K deficiency at it is not utilized. Without vitamin K there is no carboxylation of glutamic acid residues in clotting factor which impairs coagulation. This increases bleeding tendency which manifests as bruising, ecchymosis, epistaxis, haematuria, gastrointestinal bleeding, post-operative haemorrhage and increased bleeding and clotting time. It is used in its dietary deficiency, malabsorption, in new-borns, poisoning with warfarin and similar oral anticoagulants, and prolonged use of antibiotics and salicylates. Vitamin K1 and 2 are considered safe. Toxicity usually occurs with vitamin K3. It includes haemolysis, hyperbilirubinemia and jaundice and precipitation of kernicterus in new-borns. So, vitamin K3 should not be used.

Was having a hard time understanding the the functions of Vitamin K, but you made it very easy. More power to you.🙌💯
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you very much for creating this video! It is very well presented, paced and organized. The illustrations are very helpful to visualize the material discussed. The summary at the end is also very useful. Thanks a million!!
Omggg you are a life saver thanks alott💕💕💕💕
Most helpful sir...❤❤❤❤.. thank you sir..😊
Thank you 💜 it was helpful
Welcome 😊
Amazing MashaALLAH
Informative video and awesome presentation thank u
Welcome 😊
הרבה תודות על המידע המעניין ועל צורת העברה האיכותית.
Thanks a lot
U deserve to subscribe ❤️🔥❤️🔥
thank you sir
I have antithrombin3 . Recently had ca oxalate kidney stone . Is it safe to take vitamin K2 ? I know vit K1 promotes clotting but can’t find info on vit K2 and antithrombin 3 .Any thoughts? Thank you for this helpful video!!!
Good job Sir 👍
It is a very good video👍
Thank you
Welcome ☺️
Awesome!
Thank you 😊
Thank you!! :)
You're welcome!
Sir plz make video on all vitamins
Amazing
Please share the videos. 😊
Sir what is hydroquinone?
Very helpful
Thank you😊
Fantastic video sir
Thanks. Please share the videos to support us.
Very helpfull
Thank you...!
Really helpful video ❤️🇵🇰
Thank you 😊
Thank u sir😍
Welcome 😊
Very good video 🙏
Thank you
you are smart
🤓
SO COOOL
Thanks. Keep watching.!😊
Sir can you please, make the videos of pathology
Pathology is not in plan in near future. But I do touch upon relevant pathological aspects here and there. And yes I want to cover all the subjects eventually. Thank you.
What is the last factor to be depressed in Vitamin K deficiency?
Excuse me sir ! when oxygen and carbon dioxide binds with clotting factorys then it's mean that Glutamic acid residues are carboxilated?
carboxylation is addition of carboxyl group. for clotting factors, this occurs at glutamic acid residues.
Sir does carboxilation take place after hydroquinone give electrons to the glutamic acid residues??
Honestly, as a medical person I never needed to go into that intricate chemistry.!!! Whatever I have shown in the video was enough to understand all the related concepts so I never explored these detail. This makes me curious... in which field you are?
@@NonstopNeuron Sir I'm in class seven . I'm doing O
Levels
And I want to be a cardiac surgeon in future .
@@NonstopNeuron And Sir your videos are so good and are really helpful to me .I mostly watch your videos.
Glad to be helpful to future surgeon 😊
@@NonstopNeuron Thank you Sir 🙂
Warfarin is anticoagulant but vit k is help clotting of blood then how vit k uses as warfarin?
vitamin K is used as antidote to reverse the effect of warfarin.
Why carboxilation need oxygen????
this allows it to bind with calcium which in tern allows it to fix on platelets during coagulation cascade. Watch the video on coagulation cascade. You will get the idea.
carboxy = carb + oxy = carbon + oxygen
lol at 4:11 u wrote 7 as IIV instead of VII
Yaa I know 🫣🙈
What is being said at 1:10 - 1:13 ? Your accent is a bit thick. The name koagulation stems from danish Im pretty sure. After all it was the danish chemist Henrik Dam that indentified vitamin k
Hi there, thanks for the comment. From 1:08 to 01:18 its “It is stored mainly in liver. However, the storage does not occur to a larger extend and its level declines rapidly if it’s not taken in diet regularly.” You can turn on CC also.
Regarding origin of name, few books and other sources (including that I referred) mention it as German. Seems its same (Koagulation) in Danish and German. But yes, Danish makes more sense as Henrik Dam was Danish. Thank you.!
