Inositol, also known as cyclohexanehexol, is widely distributed in animals and plants and is a for animals and microorganisms. It was first isolated from myocardium and liver. Inositol exists in multiple cis and trans isomers in nature, and the naturally occurring isomer is cis-1,2,3,5-trans-4,6-cyclohexanehexol.
Inositol can be regarded as a polyhydric hydrocarbon derivative of cyclohexane in chemistry. In theory, there are 9 possible isomers, such as myo-inositol, epi-inositol, scyllo-inositol, etc. Almost all organisms contain free or bound inositol. In the nucleated red blood cells of plants and birds, inositol hexaphosphate exists in the form of hexaphosphate. Compounds with fewer phosphate groups than this compound are also distributed in plants and animals. In addition, free inositol is mainly found in muscles, heart, lungs, and liver, and is a component of phosphatidylinositol, a type of phospholipid.
Myo-inositol is an essential nutrient source for birds and mammals. Lack of myo-inositol can cause hair loss in mice and abnormalities around the eyes in rats. Rats can metabolize inositol in large quantities, but the amount excreted in urine is not much. Sharks seem to be able to convert inositol into a substance that stores energy. It is one of the components of vitalin I.
