Food Iminosugars and Related Synthetic Derivatives Shift Energy Metabolism and Induce Structural Changes in Colon Cancer Cell Lines [PDF]
Iminosugars have a carbohydrate-like backbone in which the ring oxygen is replaced by nitrogen. They are naturally found in foods such as rice, buckwheat, mulberries, and fermented vegetables, and are reported to exert anti-hyperlipidemic and anti ...
