Application
D-(+)-Mannose, a C-2 epimer of D-glucose, is used in the formation of glycan structure and glycosylation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Mannose, a six-carbon carbohydrate, is the C-2 epimer of glucose and a critical sugar for protein glycosylation. Mannose can also be utilized by the brain as an alternative energy source.

D-mannose is a monosaccharide approximately a hundred times less abundant than glucose in human blood. Previous studies demonstrated that supraphysiological levels of D-mannose inhibit tumour growth and stimulate regulatory T cell differentiation. It is not known whether D-mannose metabolism affects

HSV-2 infection is common and generally asymptomatic, but it is associated with increased HIV susceptibility and disease progression. This may relate to herpes-mediated changes in genital and systemic immunology. Cervical cytobrushes and blood were collected from HIV-uninfected African/Caribbean women in

The neutralizing anti-HIV-1 antibody 2G12 is of particular interest due to the sterilizing protection it provides from viral challenge in animal models. 2G12 is a unique, domain-exchanged antibody that binds exclusively to conserved N-linked glycans that form the high-mannose patch
