In this lecture, we explore the reduction reaction of monosaccharides, a key biochemical process in carbohydrate metabolism with important clinical relevance.
🔬 Topics Covered:
Reduction of monosaccharides and formation of sugar alcohols (polyols)
Detailed explanation of the sorbitol (polyol) pathway
Role of aldose reductase and sorbitol dehydrogenase
Sorbitol accumulation and its effects in diabetes mellitus
Pathogenesis of diabetic complications such as cataract, peripheral neuropathy, and nephropathy
Mannitol as a sugar alcohol: mechanism of action as an osmotic diuretic
Clinical uses of mannitol in raised intracranial pressure, cerebral edema, and acute renal failure
🩺 This lecture is highly useful for MBBS, BDS, BSN, and allied health students, helping link biochemistry with clinical medicine.
📌 Watch till the end to understand how a simple biochemical reaction plays a major role in diabetic complications and emergency medical management.
