Monosaccharides

Simple sugars, carbohydrates which cannot be decomposed by hydrolysis. They are colorless crystalline substances with a sweet taste and have the same general formula CnH2nOn. (From Dorland, 28th ed)

1.	Irritable Bowel Syndrome (Syndrome, Irritable Bowel) 11/01/2014 - "The FODMAP concept (fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides and polyols) is presented in more detail and recent studies on pathophysiological effects of FODMAP constituents and of therapeutic effects of a low FODMAP diet on symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome are discussed. " 04/27/2015 - "The low FODMAP (Fermentable Oligo-, Di- and Monosaccharides and Polyoles) diet (LFD) allegedly reduces symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). " 11/01/2015 - "A diet with reduced content of fermentable short-chain carbohydrates (fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides, and polyols [FODMAPs]) has been reported to be effective in the treatment of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). " 12/01/2015 - "Restriction of fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAPs) is an effective dietary treatment for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). " 08/01/2015 - "A low fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAP) diet can ameliorate symptoms in adult irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) within 48 h. "
2.	Infection 07/01/1992 - "3. The isolated monosaccharides from native and chemically pretreated snails were injected into mice and their protective effects were examined after infection of mice with cercariae of Schistosoma mansoni. " 12/26/2014 - "While monosaccharides have proved beneficial against such bacterial lung infection, the design of several multivalent glycosylated macromolecules has been shown to be also beneficial on biofilm dispersion. " 01/01/1984 - "The influence of monosaccharides on the receptor-mediated infection of vertebrate cells by trypomastigotes of T cruzi also varies between clones. " 05/01/1982 - "If monosaccharides are involved in infection by tachyzoites, they are ones not commonly found on animal cell surfaces. " 05/01/1982 - "In contrast (at a concentration of 50 mM or greater) the monosaccharides inhibited non-specifically the infection of BESM cells by T. "
3.	Cardiovascular Diseases (Cardiovascular Disease) 08/08/2014 - "Alditols and monosaccharides from sorghum vinegar inhibit multiple steps in the platelet aggregation pathway, and may be beneficial for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases."
4.	Prostatic Neoplasms (Prostate Cancer) 12/01/2009 - "Our previous study concluded that gp96 purified from various rat and human prostate cancers is differentially glycosylated based on the amino and neutral monosaccharide content, and it was postulated that the monosaccharides may play a role in its biological activity. " 05/01/1987 - "In this preliminary study, a variety of anti-BGA reagents, with known specificities that involve the carbohydrate backbone in addition to the BGA specific terminal monosaccharides, were used to study the expression of the A and H (O) BGA in cryostat sections of 16 patients with benign prostatic disease and nine with prostatic cancer. "
5.	Body Weight (Weight, Body) 04/01/2002 - "The results showed that LBP-4 is composed of six kinds of monosaccharides that can enhance food conversion rate and the content of zinc and iron in body of mice, and reduce the body weight." 02/01/1992 - "All five monosaccharides were well absorbed at constant rates for 2 hours with apparent rates of absorption (mumol.kg body weight-1.min-1, mean +/- SE) of D-glucose, 0.24 +/- 0.01; L-glucose, 0.20 +/- 0.02; 3-o-methyl-glucose, 0.19 +/- 0.02; alpha-methyl-glucoside, 0.16 +/- 0.03; and D-xylose, 0.10 +/- 0.04. " 11/01/1986 - "Glycemic curves were examined using provocative tests with equivalent quantities (1.5 g/kg body weight) of poly-, oligo- and monosaccharides (starch, maltose, glucose). " 01/01/1978 - "Studies into the half-life of monosaccharides as well as into the effects of intravenous infusion of sugar solutions (0.5 g/kg body weight of glucose, fructose, galactose, and invert sugar) on the concentration of various blood components were undertaken with six calves and five heads of young cattle.
