Mannitol metabolism during pathogenic fungal–host interactions under stressed conditions

Frontiers 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).

Mannitol Sensitivity [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1972
The addition of mannitol to cultures of Salmonella typhimurium mutants missing mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase causes stasis or lysis. Mannitol-1-phosphate accumulates intracellularly to concentrations of 20 m m .

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

PLoS 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

Pharmaceutics, 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.

Mannitol for acute stroke [PDF]

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2001
Mannitol is an osmotic agent and a free radical scavenger which might decrease oedema and tissue damage in stroke.To test whether treatment with mannitol reduces short and long-term case fatality and dependency after acute ischaemic stroke or intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH).We searched the Cochrane Stroke Group Trials Register (searched December 2006),

Using osmotic stress to stabilize mannitol production in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background Mannitol is a C(6) polyol that is used in the food and medical sector as a sweetener and antioxidant, respectively. The sustainable production of mannitol, especially via the direct conversion of CO2 by photosynthetic cyanobacteria, has become

Low Mannitol Concentrations in Arabidopsis thaliana Expressing Ectocarpus Genes Improve Salt Tolerance

Plants, 2020
Mannitol is abundant in a wide range of organisms, playing important roles in biotic and abiotic stress responses. Nonetheless, mannitol is not produced by a vast majority of plants, including many important crop plants.
