Differential response of chondrocytes and chondrogenic-induced mesenchymal stem cells to C1-OH tributanoylated N-acetylhexosamines. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Articular cartilage has a limited ability to self-repair because of its avascular nature and the low mitotic activity of the residing chondrocytes. There remains a significant need to develop therapeutic strategies to increase the regenerative capacity ...

Synthesis of Hexosamine in the Rat
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1955 Summary1. The relationship of carcass hexosamine concentration to age in growing rats showed that a marked decrease occurs between 10 and 80 days of age. 2. Hexosamine synthesis within the rat was demonstrated by means of balance studies on fasted animals and on animals fed diets containing very small or moderate amounts of hexosamine.

Química Nova, 2005 alpha-Aminoketones are expected to undergo enolization and subsequent aerobic oxidation yielding oxyradicals and highly toxic a-oxoaldehydes. Our interest has been focused on two endogenous a-aminoketones: 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and aminoacetone (AA)

Evidence that intracellular stages of Leishmania major utilize amino sugars as a major carbon source. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2010 Intracellular parasites, such as Leishmania spp, must acquire suitable carbon sources from the host cell in order to replicate. Here we present evidence that intracellular amastigote stages of Leishmania exploit amino sugars in the phagolysosome of ...

Disruption of O-GlcNAc cycling in C. elegans perturbs Nucleotide Sugar pools and Complex Glycans
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2014 The carbohydrate modification of serine and threonine residues with O-linked beta-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is ubiquitous and governs cellular processes ranging from cell signaling to apoptosis.
