D-Tagatose (D-(-)-Tagatose) is a natural low-calorie rare sugar. D-Tagatose inhibits the activities of sucrase, maltase and intestinal disaccharidases, reduces the digestion of sucrose and starch, and blocks the absorption of sucrose, maltose and glucose. D-Tagatose promotes glucokinase activity and inhibits glycogen phosphorylase activity via tagatose-1-phosphate, regulates the synthesis and decomposition of hepatic glycogen, reduces postprandial and fasting blood glucose levels, and improves hyperinsulinemia. D-Tagatose regulates lipid profiles, stimulates GLP-1 secretion, and exhibits prebiotic effects. D-Tagatose is a bulking sweetener. D-Tagatose can be used in research related to diabetes, hyperlipidemia, dental caries, atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes.

D-Tagatose regulates lipid profiles, stimulates GLP-1 secretion, and exhibits prebiotic effects. D-Tagatose is a bulking sweetener. D-Tagatose can be used in research related to diabetes, hyperlipidemia, dental caries, atherosclerosis and type 2 diabetes[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

D-Tagatose was synthesized from starch via an ATP-free in vitro multi-enzyme pathway, with high yield enabled by the final irreversible dephosphorylation step[1].
D-Tagatose does not increase mutation frequency in mouse L5178Y lymphoma cancer cells, with or without metabolic activation[2].
D-Tagatose is thermally stable in milk and lemonade, with minimal degradation and preserved prebiotic activity during processing and storage[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

D-Tagatose (4000-20000 mg/kg/day; i.g.; daily; gestational days 6 to 15) shows no developmental toxicity in Sprague-Dawley rats at doses up to 20000 mg/kg/day, with only transient gastrointestinal effects and reduced food intake at mid and high doses[2].
D-Tagatose (sole carbohydrate source in diet; dietary; ad libitum; 16 weeks), when substituted for sucrose in hypercholesterolemic mouse diets, prevents the development of obesity, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis observed with sucrose feeding[2].
D-Tagatose produces antidiabetic effects in the SHR/N-cp rat model of type 2 diabetes[2].
D-Tagatose (0.9-1.8 g/(rat·d); oral; mixed with basal diet; 21-day adaptation period; 40-41-day balance period) provides effectively zero net metabolizable energy to growing male Wistar rats, with a calculated NEVs of -0.5 kJ/g that is not significantly different from zero[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Wistar rats (male, initial weight 80-100 g)[3]
Dosage: 0.9 g/(rat·d); 1.8 g/(rat·d)
Administration: oral (mixed with basal diet; 21-day adaptation period; 40- or 41-day balance period)
Result: Did not significantly alter live weight gain during the balance period.
Did not increase energy gain as protein or fat, unlike sucrose.
Yielded a calculated net metabolizable energy value (NEVs) of -0.5 kJ/g (SEM ±2.2 kJ/g), which was not significantly different from zero.
Elevated metabolizable energy for maintenance plus substrate-induced energy losses by 24 kJ/g average protein mass after adjustment for balance period duration and lean mass.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
