In recent years, mannitol has been widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a substitute for lactose. Mannitol is widely available and can be produced by a variety of methods. Due to its water solubility, low hygroscopicity and chemical inertness, it is commonly added to various formulations, especially tablet formulations. A better understanding of the Critical Material Attributes (CMAs) of raw materials can help guide tablet quality improvement and mannitol development based on quality by design. In addition, co-processing of mannitol can introduce more desirable properties to the resulting particles. In this review, we focused specifically on the recent advances and development of mannitol on direct compression (DC) tableting, including the functions in tablet formulations, potential CMAs, and mannitol-based co-processed excipients, therefore providing a reference for further studies.

Mannitol is a naturally occurring C(6) polyol with a wide range of applications in the food and pharmaceutical industry. In a previous study, mannitol production was achieved via the direct conversion of CO in sp. PCC6803.

Hyperosmolar therapy, specifically the use of mannitol, has been employed to improve brain relaxation, but mannitol use may cause hypovolemia and electrolyte imbalance. Given these risks, hypertonic saline was introduced as an alternative; however, data on its efficacy and safety are limited. Researchers conducted a prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled trial.

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a fatal disease caused by mutations in feline enteric coronavirus, posing significant challenges in feline medicine. GS-441524 (GS), the active metabolite of remdesivir, has demonstrated efficacy in FIP treatment. However, its poor solubility and low oral bioavailability require high doses for therapeutic effect, limiting its practicality.

Maternal diabetes (MD) increases the risk for neurodevelopmental disorders and leads to neural tube defects (NTDs) which are severe anomalies of the nervous system. In order to elucidate the etiology and pathological mechanisms causing NTDs in MD and try to search for new therapeutic strategies as well, the exposure of induced pluripotency stem cell (iPSC)-neural stem cells (NSCs) to high glucose (HG) may be associated with fetal progressive deterioration of neuronal functions in utero ultimately leading to MD-related NTDs. In the present study, although HG (25 mM) had no effect on the viability of undifferentiated iPSC-NSCs compared with the positive control mannitol (25 mM), HG attenuated iPSC-NSCs cell proliferation and induced the presence of decreased βIII-tubulin and neurite network length during 7-day neuronal differentiation, resulting in the inability of nerve-to-nerve connections to communicate effectively.
