D-mannoheptulose was recently proposed to be transported into cells by GLUT2, whereas its hexaacetate ester may cross the plasma membrane without requiring the intervention of a specific carrier system. In the light of these proposals, the effects of unesterified D-mannoheptulose
A complete process model and economic analysis has been developed for itaconic acid production via catalytic condensation of dimethyl succinate and formaldehyde. The process model is based on experimental yields and selectivities obtained for the condensation reaction and on recovery

In rats injected with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 5 gamma mg/g body weight [BWT]), the toxin provokes death within 24 h in 23% of the animals and, in surviving rats, causes a decrease in BWT, hyperlactacidemia, hyperlipacidemia, and hyperketonemia, as well

Succinic acid methyl esters are potent insulin secretagogues in rat pancreatic islets, but they do not stimulate insulin release in mouse islets. Unlike rat and human islets, mouse islets lack malic enzyme and, therefore, are unable to form pyruvate from

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is often referred to as a glucose-dependent insulinotropic agent and is currently under investigation as a tool in the treatment of noninsulin-dependent diabetes. This report shows that, in the absence of glucose, a nonglucidic nutrient, namely
