The study, N-acetylglucosamine inhibits inflammation and neurodegeneration markers in multiple sclerosis: a mechanistic trial, was published in the Journal of Neuroinflammation.

Researchers conducted a cohort study that suggests oral N-acetylglucosamine treatment can hinder neurodegeneration and inflammation associated with multiple sclerosis (MS). Oral treatment of N ...

Irvine, CA - Oct. 7, 2020 - N-acetylglucosamine, a simple sugar found in human breast milk and sold as an over-the-counter dietary supplement in the United States, promotes myelin repair in mouse ...

Scientists led by Karla Satchell, Ph.D., the Anne Stewart Youmans Professor of Microbiology at Northwestern University, have discovered previously unknown molecular mechanisms that help a type of food ...

UCI researchers have found that a simple sugar, N-acetylglucosamine, reduces multiple inflammation and neurodegeneration markers in people who suffer from multiple sclerosis (MS). In addition ...

Here we generated mice deficient in both N-acetylglucosamine-6-O-sulfotransferase 1 (GlcNAc6ST-1) and GlcNAc6ST-2 and found that mutant mice had approximately 75% less homing of lymphocytes to the ...

Professor Sato and her collaborators tested N-acetylglucosamine, a glucose derivative used as a dietary supplement, on mice showing the main symptoms of DMD. "It's a simple sugar whose structure ...

were affected but differed from the other affected subjects with respect to the haplotype surrounding the gene for the alpha and beta subunits of N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate transferase (GNPTAB).

N-acetylglucosamine, a simple sugar found in human breast milk and sold as an over-the-counter dietary supplement in the United States, promotes myelin repair in mouse models and correlates with ...
