چکیده

Myo-inositol was given orally to nine multiple sclerosis patients and nine healthy control subjects. Pattern reversal evoked potential testing was used to assess its effect. The principal positive wave increased in amplitude, duration and area in a dose-dependent manner in the multiple sclerosis group compared with controls. Cerebrospinal fluid concentrations of myo-inositol in multiple sclerosis and controls were similar. The significance of these observations is discussed in relation to recent discoveries in inositol phospholipid function.

A review on the role of inositol in aquaculture

Inositol is usually classified as an essential vitamin for most animals, and is recognised as a part of the B-complex vitamins. Among all other inositol isomer forms, myo-inositol possesses biological activity. It is found in the brain, skeletal, heart, and main reproductive tissues and exists as a structural component of phosphatidylinositol in biological cell membranes. Myo-inositol, also act...

Myo-inositol at High Concentration Reduced Viability and Proliferation of Rat Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells via Electrolyte Imbalance and Elevation of Aerobic Metabolism

Myo-inositol (MI) which is produced at low concentration is an essential substance for animal’s natural growth. This study was performed to investigate the effects of MI on viability, proliferation and some biochemical factors of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). To investigate the cell viability using trypan blue assay, BMSCs after third passage were treated with different concen...

Evidence of elevated glutamate in multiple sclerosis using magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 3 T.

Histopathological reports of multiple sclerosis and its animal models have shown evidence of a link between axonal injury in active lesions and impaired glutamate metabolism. Mature oligodendrocytes play a role in glutamate uptake to maintain glutamate homeostasis but in multiple sclerosis white matter the loss of expression of glutamate transporters in the lesion vicinity results in ineffectiv...
