DETAILS

Description (English)
Biochem/physiol Actions
A component of membrane phospholipids, glycosyl-phosphatidyl-inositol anchors that bind glycoproteins to cell membranes, and inositol phosphate second messengers.
Other Notes
Metabolism and function of myo-inositol and inositol phospholipids1; Review 2,3; Component of the liquid stationary phase in the GLC separation of nitroxylene and xylenol isomers4
Tandem Mass Spectrometry data independently generated by Scripps Center for Metabolomics is available to view or download in PDF. 57569.pdf Tested metabolites are featured on Scripps Center for Metabolomics METLIN Metabolite Database. To learn more, visit sigma.com/metlin.
Application
Myo-Inositol, an organic osmolyte, is used to improve ovarian function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Myo-Inositol may be used to study the H+-myo-inositol transporter SLC2A13, a Potential Marker for Cancer Stem Cells in an Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
