N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine  (Synonyms: N-Acetylmannosamine; ManNAc)

Cat. No.: HY-128850 Purity: ≥98.0%
SDS COA Handling Instructions Technical Support

N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (ManNAc) is an oral active sialic acid precursor that can prevent hypertension by increasing sialylation of IgG, making it a promising candidate for cardiovascular disease research. Additionally, N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine can activate hypocretin (HCRT) gene expression in orexin neurons and improve neurodegeneration caused by aging, offering potential avenues for research in neurological disorders.

Description

N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (ManNAc) is an oral active sialic acid precursor that can prevent hypertension by increasing sialylation of IgG, making it a promising candidate for cardiovascular disease research. Additionally, N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine can activate hypocretin (HCRT) gene expression in orexin neurons and improve neurodegeneration caused by aging, offering potential avenues for research in neurological disorders[1][2][3][4][5].

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vivo

N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (administered orally in drinking water at a concentration of 1%, p.o., once daily for 16 weeks) can prevent obesity-induced hypertension in a high-fat diet-induced hypertensive mouse model by increasing the sialylation level of IgG glycans[3].
N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (administered orally in drinking water at a dose of 2 g/kg, 4-6 mL per day, for 12 weeks) can reverse the reduction in sialylation in the kidneys and muscles of a GNE myopathy C57BL/6J mouse model with the knock-in (Gne p.M712T) mutation[4].
N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (administered orally in drinking water at a concentration of 0.5%, ad libitum, for 8 weeks) improves synaptic transmission and Long-Term Potentiation (LTP) in 6-month-old and 14-month-old SAMR1 mice[4]

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: High-fat diet-induced hypertension C57BL/6 mice model[2]
Dosage: Dissolved in drinking water at a concentration of 1%
Administration: Oral gavage (p.o.), once daily for 16 weeks
Result: Inhibited high-fat diet-induced weight gain and increased the sialylation of IgG glycans.
Animal Model: Knock-in C57BL/6J mice model (Gne p.M712T) of GNE myopathy
Dosage: 1 or 2 g/kg
Administration: Administered via drinking water (4-6 mL daily), once daily for 12 weeks
Result: Showed a significant decrease of proteinuria after only one week on the treatment (2 g/kg)

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
