Biological Activity
D-Galactose is a natural aldohexose and C-4 epimer of glucose, it accelerates the aging of invertebrates and mammals and is used as a model of aging. D-galactose given by oral route causes cognitive impairments in rats which are accompanied by oxidative damage. Cognitive impairments is observed in the open-field test in the 4th and 6th weeks after d-gal administration, as well as an impairment in spatial memory in the radial maze test after the 6th week of d-gal administration.
