Megaloblastic Anemia
This hypersegmented neutrophil is present along with macroovalocytes in a case of pernicious anemia. Compare the size of the
RBC's to the lymphocyte at the lower left center. Such anemias can
be due to B9 (folate) or to B12 (cobalamin) deficiency.

vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, C, and
B12?
• Which pathway depends on vitamin
A and how is it transported?
• Which pathways and enzymes
depend on vitamin B1, B2, B3, B6, B9,
and B12?
• Which pathway and enzyme
depends on p-aminobenzoic acid,
choline, lipoic acid, and
tetrahydrobiopterin?
• What are some clinical features and
tests of vitamin deficiencies?
