Efficiency of the D-chiro-inositol for the polycystic ovary syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder that develops in 10–15% of reproductive aged women. Over the past two decades, the inositol effectiveness in normalizing the clinical and hormonal disorders associated with PCOS has been actively studied.

Absorption and biosynthesis of D‐chiro‐inositol in mice
D‐chiro‐inositol (DCI) is known to possess insulin‐like properties. Mice were fed with either regular chow (control group) or DCI‐free diet over a five‐week period. The levels of DCI declined significantly in plasma (1.91 ± 0.17 to 0.056 ± 0.0 μM), stool (20.2 ± 6 to 0.147 ± 0.05 nmoles) and urine (27.39 ± 8.2 ...

D-chiro-Inositol and Pinitol Extend the Life Span of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
D-chiro-inositol, a member of the inositol family, and pinitol, a 3-methoxy analogue of D-chiro-inositol, have been proposed to have antidiabetic, antiinflammatory, anticancer and stamina enhancing effects. We found that supplementing the diet of Drosophila with D-chiro-inositol and pinitol extended adult longevity in both male and female flies.

Microbiota‐Mediated Sequential Gallery Colonization by Adults and Larvae of an Invasive Bark Beetle
Dispersing adult beetles harbor more pinitol‐degrading microbes to colonize novel host pines with high levels of pinitol stress. These microbes from the beetle's exoskeleton and gut will be transmitted into the gallery via adults’ feeding and frass, whose proliferation in the gallery contributes to the formation of a low‐pinitol microhabitat.

The importance of myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol to support fertility and reproduction [PDF]
This 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 stimulating hormone (FSH) and DCI is an aromatase inhibitor.
