mannose 50.0%
galactose 50.0%
Physiological Functions It has a protective effect on Aβ₂₅₋₃₅-induced neurotoxicity in PC12 cells. It can inhibit apoptosis, regulate the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax, improve mitochondrial function, inhibit the release of cytochrome c and the activation of caspase-3. The mechanism is related to the activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
Intestinal Microbiota Regulation unknown
