N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine-d3

N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine-d3 (N-Acetyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose-d3) is deuterium labeled N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine. N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine (N-Acetyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose), the D isomer of N-acetylglucosamine, is an orally active monosaccharide derivative of glucose with anti-tumor and anti-inflammation properties. N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine is also a bacterial metabolite, which is found in Escherichia coli. N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine can induce yeast-mycelial conversion in Candida albicans. N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine also enhances healing of cartilaginous injuries in rabbits[1][2][3].
