Few nutrition topics generate as much confusion as the debate between high-fructose corn syrup and table sugar. Both ...

Fructose, a monosaccharide abundant in diet and generated endogenously via the polyol pathway, has emerged as a key substrate in cancer cell metabolism. Tumours frequently upregulate specific ...

Excessive fructose consumption has emerged as a potent driver of liver injury through its unique metabolic handling in hepatocytes. Unlike glucose, fructose is rapidly phosphorylated by ketohexokinase ...

Reston, VA—A new PET radiotracer can differentiate diseased tissues from healthy tissues based on fructose metabolism, according to new research published in the March issue of The Journal of Nuclear ...

People love sweet stuff, and the abundance of sugary foods in the modern world is thought to have played a major role in the rise of several serious health conditions like cardiovascular disease, ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that specialized immune cells within the glioblastoma tumor metabolize fructose to suppress immune responses and promote tumor growth, reports a study ...

Fructose, the most common food sweetener, is widely used in processed sugary beverages, candies, and baked goods. Excessive fructose intake is closely associated with metabolic diseases like obesity, ...

A new PET radiotracer can differentiate diseased tissues from healthy tissues based on fructose metabolism, according to new research published in the March issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that specialized immune cells within the glioblastoma tumor metabolize fructose to suppress immune responses and promote tumor growth, reports a study ...

Adults who drink just one sugar-sweetened beverage a day face roughly 60 percent higher odds of developing non-alcoholic ...

Scientists have developed a new radiotracer (called [18F]4-FDF) that can map how cells use fructose for energy. The vast majority of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging systems map out how the ...

First study linking fructose metabolism by brain immune cells to glioblastoma growth Blocking a key fructose transporter activated tumor-killing immune cells in mice Findings suggest a promising new ...
