Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25962821

N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc), a hexosamine monosaccharide, is the first committed biological precursor of Neu5Ac. N-acetylmannosamine is being investigated as a potential treatment for GNE myopathy. N-acetylmannosamine has being reported to improve the cognitive function in aged animals. It has potential therapeutic application for cognitive dysfunction. N-acetylmannosamine is under investigation for GNE myopathy.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) enhanced the hippocampal cell proliferation in mice. ManNAc had positive effects on the age-related brain dysfunction.
