L’importance du myo-inositol et du D-chiro-inositol pour soutenir la fertilité et la reproduction
, 2021 International audienceThis review details the physiologic roles of two insulin sensitizers, myo-inositol (MI)and D-chiro-inositol (DCI). In the human ovary, MI is a second messenger of follicle stimulatinghormone (FSH) and DCI is an aromatase inhibitor ...

Characterization of new polyol/H+ symporters in Debaryomyces hansenii. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Debaryomyces hansenii is a halotolerant yeast that produces and assimilates a wide variety of polyols. In this work we evaluate polyol transport in D. hansenii CBS 767, detecting the occurrence of polyol/H(+) (and sugar/H(+)) symporter activity, through ...

D-chiro-inositol metabolism in diabetes mellitus. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1993 D-chiro-inositol is a rare inositol isomer present in inositol phosphoglycans which are proposed mediators of insulin action. To study D-chiro-inositol metabolism in diabetes mellitus, a sensitive and specific assay was developed using negative-ion chemical ionization gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.
