 h English (en)In the early 1900s, several research laboratories were investigating constituents of foods, essential to maintain growth in rats. These constituents were initially divided into fat-soluble "vitamine" A and water-soluble "vitamine" B. (The "e" was dropped in 1920.) Vitamin B was further thought to have two components, a heat-labile substance called B<sub>1</sub> and a heat-stable substance called B<sub>2</sub>. Vitamin B<sub>2</sub> was tentatively identified to be the factor necessary for preventing [[pellagra]], but that was later confirmed to be due to [[Niacin (nutrient)|niacin]] (vitamin B<sub>3</sub>) deficiency. The confusion was due to the fact that riboflavin (B<sub>2</sub>) deficiency causes [[stomatitis]] symptoms similar to those seen in pellagra, but without the widespread peripheral skin lesions. For this reason, early in the history of identifying riboflavin deficiency in humans the condition was sometimes called "pellagra sine pellagra" (pellagra without pellagra).
 h Japanese (ja)1900年代初頭、いくつかの研究所では、ラットの成長維持に不可欠な食品の成分を調査していた。ビタミンBはさらに、B<sub>1</sub>と呼ばれる熱に不安定な物質と、B<sub>2</sub>と呼ばれる熱に不安定な物質の2つの成分があると考えられていた。ビタミンB<sub>2</sub>が[[pellagra/ja|ペラグラ]]の予防に必要な因子であることが仮に確認されたが、それは後に[[Niacin (nutrient)/ja|ナイアシン]](ビタミンB<sub>3</sub>)の欠乏によるものであることが確認された。この混乱は、リボフラビン(B<sub>2</sub>)の欠乏がペラグラに見られるものと似た[[stomatitis/ja|口内炎]]の症状を引き起こすが、広範な末梢の皮膚病変を伴わないという事実によるものであった。このため、ヒトのリボフラビン欠乏症が発見された初期には、この病態は「ペラグラ・シネ・ペラグラ」(ペラグラのないペラグラ)と呼ばれることもあった。
