A candy way to say no to pain: Rare sugar-based therapy for inflammation and arthritis:D-Allose, an aldohexose sugar and C-3 epimer of glucose, increases IL-9 levels, augments proliferation of ILC2s (type 2 innate lymphoid cells) and regulatory T (Treg) cells, promotes resolution of inflammation, attenuates cartilage destruction, decreases bone loss, and inhibits pathological features associated with arthritis via up-regulation of its target genes, 18/March/2018, 9.34 am

Introduction: What they say A study from Department of Internal Medicine 3-Rheumatology and Immunology, Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and Universitätsklinikum Erlangen, Erlangen, Germany shows that […]

NAFLD

A candy way to treat Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: Sugar-based therapy for Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD): D-Mannose, a C-2 epimer of glucose, promotes degradation of HMGCR, decreases the levels of triglycerides, free cholesterol, and total cholesterol and prevents the progression of Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD via down regulation of its target gene, 18/March/2018, 8.51 am

Significance of the study: Given that: (1) 15-30% of Western populations suffer from Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), while 6-25% of Asian populations suffer from it; (2) 75 to […]
