N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (ManNAc) is an oral active sialic acid precursor that can prevent hypertension by increasing sialylation of IgG, making it a promising candidate for cardiovascular disease research. Additionally, N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine can activate hypocretin (HCRT) gene expression in orexin neurons and improve neurodegeneration caused by aging, offering potential avenues for research in neurological disorders[1][2][3][4][5].
