- Inositol, (of which the
most prominent naturally occurring form is myo-inositol,
cis-1,2,3,5-trans-4,6-cyclohexanehexol), is a carbocyclic polyol that
plays an important role as the structural basis for a number of
secondary messengers in eukaryotic cells, including inositol phosphates,
phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP)
lipids.
- It is found in many
foods, in particular, in cereals with high bran content, nuts, beans,
and fruit, especially cantaloupe melons and oranges. Inositol is not
considered a vitamin itself because it can be synthesised by the
body.
Inositol is needed for health at cellular level and a fair
concentration is found in the lens of the human eye as well as the
heart.
- Men taking extra
inositol reported that their hair loss had improved, with less hair
falling out - although this has not been tested under clinical
situations
- Extracts of immature
kernels of Zea mays catalysed the synthesis of indol-3-
ylacetyl-myo-inositol galactoside from indol-3-ylacetyl-myo-inositol and
UDP-galactose.
The product of the reaction contained radioactivity
from UDP-[U-'4C]galactose and was identified as
indol-3-ylacetylmyo-inositol galactoside by gas chromatography-mass
spectrometry.
- Indol-3-ylacetyl-myo-inositol galactosyltransferase
(indol-3-ylacetylmyo-inositol galactoside synthase) is present in
developing kernels of Zea mays.
- The solution containing
IAA-myo-inositol glycosides,used as a standard, was prepared from an
acetone/water (7:3, v/v) extract from 300 g of dry kernels. The acetone
extract (2600 ml) was evaporated to 20% of its volume and left overnight
in a cold-room. After filtration, the filtrate was evaporated to
dryness, dissolved in propan-2-ol/water.
- Myo-inositol (MI), a
molecule that is located within astrocytes, is presumed to act as an
osmolyte, and its concentration is altered in many brain disorders (1).
MI is also involved in the activation of protein C kinase.
- The enzyme inositol
oxygenase (myo-inositol : oxygen oxidoreductase; is a monooxygenase that
converts inositol into glucuronic acid in the presence of molecular
oxygen.
- Myo-inositol and
several other polyols in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma from 10 AD
subjects and 10 healthy age-matched controls by using
a gas
chromatographic-mass spectrometric technique.
- A myo-inositol
transport mutant was isolated from UV-mutagenized S. cerevisiae cells
using the replica-printing technique.
- There is a paucity of
data on the way (cAMP, inositol), qualitatively or quantitatively,
altered in heart failure (HF). These studies were performed separately
on animal models, but no study checked cAMP and inositol changes in the
same animal model simultaneously.
- Pig feed is mainly
based on cereals where phosphorus (P) is mostly present in inositol
hexaphosphate (IP6), which is not readily available to monogastric
animals. More available P sources are often added to ensure that pigs’
requirements are fulfilled; this results in high excretion levels of P.
The digestibility of P depends on phytase activity and amount of IP6 in
feedstuffs.
-
The formation of inositol within the
animal body was used for the normal concentration of body inositol and
the continued urinary excretion of inositol by rats fed a low inositol
diet for prolonged periods.
-
Inositol phosphate-containing
molecules play an important role in a broad range of cellular processes.
Inositol 5-phosphatases participate in the regulation of these signaling
molecules.
-
Inositol is a simple isomer of glucose
that is a key metabolic precursor in the phosphatidylinositol
cycle.
- Currently there are 11 active producers of
inositol in China, and most of them are distributed in North China.
- China is a large producing country of inositol
in the world, about 80% of whose output was exported to overseas market.
Thus overseas demand of inositol has an important impact on Chinese
inositol industry.
