Mannose inhibits Plasmodium parasite growth and cerebral malaria development via regulation of host immune responses
D-mannose can be transported into a variety of cells via glucose transporter (GLUT), and supraphysiological levels of D-mannose impairs tumor growth and modulates immune cell function through mechanisms such as interference with glycolysis and induction of oxidative stress. Blood-stage Plasmodium ma...
