Mannitol metabolism during pathogenic fungal-host interactions under stressed conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Numerous plants and fungi produce mannitol, which may serve as an osmolyte or metabolic store; furthermore, mannitol also acts as a powerful quencher of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Response of Tribolium castaneum to dietary mannitol, with remarks on its possible nutritive effects. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Mannitol, one of the sugar alcohols, is often used as a low-calorific carbohydrate by animals. In some insects, mannitol acts as a cryoprotectant to endure coldness, but also become a poisonous agent.

Label-Free Assessment of Mannitol Accumulation Following Osmotic Blood–Brain Barrier Opening Using Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2022
Purpose: Mannitol is a hyperosmolar agent for reducing intracranial pressure and inducing osmotic blood–brain barrier opening (OBBBO). There is a great clinical need for a non-invasive method to optimize the safety of mannitol dosing.
