General description

D-galactosamine (d-GalN) is a specific hepatotoxic agent metabolized particularly in hepatocytes. It is a 6-carbon amino sugar derived from galactose.

Application

D-(+)-Galactosamine (D-chondrosamine) has been used with lipopolysaccharides (LPS) to induce models of acute hepatic failure (LPS/D-GalN-induced liver injury, hepatitis) for therapeutic research to find new drugs.
D-(+)-Galactosamine hydrochloride has been used:
  • for the surface binding of mannan-binding lectin (MBL) to modified mica surfaces
  • in sterile phosphate buffer saline (PBS) before the intraperitoneal injection
  • in mice for the generation of primary bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Galactosamine (Gal) induces hepatocyte death both by necrosis and apoptosis. It prevents the production of liver RNA via the production of uridine diphosphate hexosamines. D-galactosamine lowers the intracellular pool of uracil nucleotides and thereby prevents the production of RNA and proteins.
