The switch from fetal γ-globin to adult β-globin is controlled by BCL11A. Genetic manipulation of BCL11A improves disease outcomes by turning γ-globin expression back on to compensate for ...

The sugar molecule mannitol is a promising and reliable option for directly measuring kidney function - both in critically ill patients and those with stable chronic kidney disease. That’s the ...

Although the mechanism by which mannitol diuresis protects against classic organic renal failure is not known clinical and experimental observations suggest that a further trial of mannitol ...

A breakthrough study sheds new light on how brain cells relay critical information from their extremities to their nucleus, leading to the activation of genes essential for learning and memory.

What Is Mannitol?Mannitol, chemical formula C6H14O6, is a white, crystalline powder with a sweet taste. It is classified as a sugar alcohol, which means it has characteristics of both sugars and ...

Intravenous mannitol can significantly reduce intraocular pressure in eyes that have undergone vitrectomy and those that have not. Intravenous mannitol significantly lowers intraocular pressure (IOP) ...
