Gene variants of the SLC2A5 gene encoding GLUT5, the major fructose transporter, do not contribute to clinical presentation of acquired fructose malabsorption [PDF]
Background While role of ALDOB-related gene variants for hereditary fructose intolerance is well established, contribution of gene variants for acquired fructose malabsorption (e.g. SLC2A5, GLUT5) is not well understood.

Internalizing psychological symptoms in children and adolescents with fructose malabsorption [PDF]
IntroductionDue to an inhibited tryptophan resorption, patients with fructose malabsorption are expected to experience decreased serotonin synthesis. A deficiency of serotonin may cause internalizing mental disorders like depression and anxiety, and a ...

Disproportionately higher asthma risk and incidence with high fructose corn syrup, but not sucrose intake, among Black young adults: the CARDIA Study [PDF]
Objective: There have been unsafe levels of unpaired fructose in the high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) in US beverages, and research/case study evidence shows that their intake is associated with greater asthma prevalence/risk/incidence, a debilitating ...

Disproportionately higher cardiovascular disease risk and incidence with high fructose corn syrup sweetened beverage intake among black young adults–the CARDIA study [PDF]
Background The black/white heart disease mortality disparity began increasing in the early 1980’s, coincident with the switch from sucrose to high-fructose-corn-syrup/(HFCS) in the US food supply.

Fructose Metabolism and Its Effect on Glucose-Galactose Malabsorption Patients: A Literature Review
Glucose-galactose malabsorption is a rare inherited autosomal recessive genetic defect. A mutation in the glucose sodium-dependent transporter-1 gene will alter the transportation and absorption of glucose and galactose in the intestine.
