Abstract: History suggests that tasteful properties of sugar have been domesticated as far back as 8000 BCE. With origins in New Guinea, the cultivation of sugar quickly spread over centuries of conquest and trade. The product, which quickly integrated into common foods and onto kitchen tables, is sucrose, which is made up of glucose and fructose dimers. While sugar is commonly associated with flavor, there is a myriad of biochemical properties that explain how sugars as biological molecules function in physiological contexts. Substantial research and reviews have been done on the role of glucose in disease. This review aims to describe the role of its isomers, fructose and mannose, in the context of inborn errors of metabolism and other metabolic diseases, such as cancer. While structurally similar, fructose and mannose give rise to very differing biochemical properties and understanding these differences will guide the development of more effective therapies for metabolic disease. We will discuss pathophysiology linked to perturbations in fructose and mannose metabolism, diagnostic tools, and treatment options of the diseases.

This review intends to narrow pertinent data from the vast body of research, including both in vivo and in vitro experiments. SDF and IDF share a number of the theorized beneficial properties in the diet including weight loss, increased satiety, effects on inflammatory markers, and intestinal microbiota.

Sucrose can be utilized as a major source of energy. Sucrose includes sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum, maple sugar pineapple, ripe fruits and honey Corn syrup is recognized as high fructose corn syrup which gives the impression that it is very rich in fructose content but the difference between the fructose content in sucrose and high fructose corn syrup is only 5-10%. HFCS is rich in fructose because the sucrose extracted from the corn syrup is treated with the enzyme that converts some glucose in fructose which makes it more sweet.

Different starch botanical sources contain different starch architectures, which may alter sweetener-starch interactions and the effects of sweeteners on Tgels. To document these effects, the Tgels of wheat, potato, waxy corn, dent corn, and 50% and 70% high amylose corn starches were determined in the presence of eleven different sweeteners and varying sweetener concentrations. Tgels of 2:1 sweetener solution:starch slurries were measured using differential scanning calorimetry. The extent of Tgel elevation was affected by both starch and sweetener type. Tgels of wheat and dent corn starches increased the most, while Tgels of high amylose corn starches were the least affected. Fructose increased Tgels the least, and isomalt and isomaltulose increased Tgels the most. Overall, starch Tgels increased more with increasing sweetener concentration, molar volume, molecular weight, and number of equatorial and exocyclic hydroxyl groups. Starches containing more short amylopectin chains, fewer amylopectin chains that span through multiple clusters, higher number of building blocks per cluster, and shorter inter-block chain lengths exhibited the largest Tgel increases in sweetener solutions, attributed to less stable crystalline regions.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: Fructose intake and circulating triglycerides: an examination of the role of APOC 3. Eric Spencer Campbell, Nutrition, 2014 Directed By: Professor, Dr. Thomas Castonguay, Nutrition and Food Science Department of Nutrition and Food Science, University of Maryland, College Park MD USA Fructose consumption can lead to marked increases in plasma triglycerides in both humans and laboratory animals. We have observed that overnight access to a 16% fructose solution can promote hypertriglyceridemia in rats. Several investigators have suggested that APOC 3 may be implicated in promoting fructose-induced hypertriglyceridemia. Wehave examined the role of APOC 3 in liver and blood taken from rats that had been given access to a fructose solution overnight as a supplement to standard laboratory chow. Hepatic APOC3 mRNA expression from fructose alone resulted in a 14 % reduction compared to control. Interestingly, hepatic APOC3 expression was increased by about 250% in sucrose, high fructose corn syrup and glucose groups. The serum protein levels of APOC3 did not differ across groups. Contrary to our hypothesis, these results indicate that glucose containing sugars increased hepatic APOC3 mRNA expression but no sugar was capable of increasing the serum protein level.

Sucrose (table sugar) consists of glucose and fructose 2. Free fructose: fruits (fruit sugar), honey, vegetables 3. Sweetener: High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) Fructose Absorption • Free fructose is absorbed from intestinal lumen through GLUT5 found at the apical membrane of the intestinal absorptive cells (enterocytes) • Fructose then crosses to blood capillaries through GLUT2 at the basolateral membrane • Fructose absorption and entrance into cells is insulin independent • Glucose and Galactose are absorbed via SGLT1 at the apical end and then through GLUT2 at the basolateral membrane. Fructose Metabolic Pathways • Fructose can be metabolized by one of two metabolic pathways: 1. Major Pathway (called Fructose-1-phosphate) in Liver 2. Minor Pathway in other tissues (Extrahepatic cells like kidney and testis) the fructose is phosphorylated by hexokinase and the generated fructose-6-phosphate directly joins the glycolysis Fructose Metabolism in Liver • Fructose-1-phosphate (F-1-P) pathway (Fructolysis) consists of 3 steps: 1. Phosphorylation of fructose by the hepatic enzyme fructokinase to generate fructose-1-phosphate. This step is important to trap fructose inside hepatocytes and to destabilize fructose (an activation step) 2.
