    Biological Activity
    Description: d-chiro-Inositol (DCI), an isomer of inositol, possesses antioxidative and endothelial protective properties. d-chiro-Inositol significantly reduced BMI, blood glucose, insulinemia, HOMA-IR, serum LH levels, total testosterone and DHEAS. However, after long-term use, there will be elevated serum estradiol and abnormal menstruation. D- chiro-Inositol facilitates adiponectin biosynthesis and activates the AMPKα/PPARs pathway to inhibit high-fat diet-induced obesity and liver lipid deposition. d-Chiro-Inositol extends the lifespan of male Drosophila melanogaster better than d-Pinitol through insulin signaling and autophagy pathways. Dietary administration of D-chiro-inositol attenuates sex-specific metabolic imbalances in the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.

    Potential role of d- chiro-inositol in reducing oxidative stress in the blood of nonobese women with polycystic ovary syndrome[Pubmed: 35413205]
    d-chiro-Inositol (DCI), an isomer of inositol, possesses antioxidative and endothelial protective properties. Possibly due to a deficiency of insulin mediators, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is often associated with insulin resistance (IR) and hyperinsulinemia, likely responsible for an elevated production of reactive oxygen species. We investigated oxidative-related alterations of inositol in the blood of women with PCOS before and after treatment with DCI. A total of 38 normal-weight PCOS women were investigated before and after DCI administration (500 mg/day for 12 weeks; n = 38) by evaluating serum testosterone, serum androstenedione, fasting serum insulin, fasting serum glucose, and parameters of IR. From the blood, we determined biomarkers of oxidative stress: superoxide anion radicals, hydrogen peroxide, nitric oxide, and the index of lipid peroxidation. The activity of catalase and superoxide dismutase and the reduced glutathione (GSH) content in the hemolysate were also assessed. Data showed that PCOS patients' plasma underwent oxidative stress, as indicated by the higher level of prooxidants and reduced cytosolic GSH content. DCI treatment significantly improved the metabolic parameters. Also, serum values of testosterone were reduced. In conclusion, PCOS patients suffer from a systemic oxidative stress that induces endothelial dysfunction. Treatment with DCI is effective in reducing hormonal, metabolic, and oxidative abnormalities in PCOS patients by improving IR.

    The Improvement Effect of D-Chiro-Inositol and Ecklonia cava K. in the Rat Model of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome[Pubmed: 35928256]
    Introduction: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is known to be an endocrine state that is characterized by oligomenorrhea, hyperandrogenism, and highly cystic follicles in the ovaries. The use of food ingredients and traditional medicine in Asian countries is well known, and previous studies have shown that Ecklonia cava K. [Alariaceae] (EC) is able to alleviate PCOS symptoms. d-chiro-Inositol (DCI) administration in pathologies where steroid biosynthesis is a crucial factor, i.e., PCOS, has provided satisfactory results. Methods: Therefore, we studied the synergistic effects of the two previously known active compounds. In rats with letrozole-induced PCOS, we focused on alternative therapies using EC and/or DCI extracts to alleviate ovarian failure. Results: As a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor, letrozole inhibits the conversion of testosterone to estrogen and subsequently causes PCOS. We divided 6-week-old female mice into the following six groups and evaluated them: vehicle, PCOS, PCOS + MET (metformin), PCOS + DCI, PCOS + EC, and PCOS + DCI + EC. In our study, PCOS rats treated with EC and DCI had low serum LH and T levels and low serum levels of inflammatory cytokines such as TNFα and IL-6. These treatments also appeared to regulate the production of factors that affect follicle formation and inflammation in the ovaries. Conclusion: We concluded that EC extract and/or DCI administration influenced aromatase production and reduced LH and T stimulation, and cotreatment with EC and DCI consequently restored ovarian dysfunction or anti-inflammatory responses in rats with PCOS-like symptoms.

    D- chiro-Inositol facilitates adiponectin biosynthesis and activates the AMPKα/PPARs pathway to inhibit high-fat diet-induced obesity and liver lipid deposition[Pubmed: 35708620]
    d-chiro-Inositol (DCI) is a natural cyclohexanol isomer that widely exists in all living beings, which can effectively prevent glucose and lipid metabolism disorders in mammals. This study revealed the DCI elevated adiponectin levels to reduce obesity and hepatic lipid deposition in high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice. Twelve weeks of DCI supplementation (50 and 100 mg per kg body weight per day) lowered body weight and serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, insulin, and fasting glucose levels. Histopathology analysis revealed that DCI inhibited hepatic steatosis and adipocyte expansion. Remarkably, DCI significantly increased serum adiponectin levels and upgraded the expressions of adiponectin receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) in the liver. The results of western blot and qRT-PCR showed that DCI impeded the inhibitory effect of HFD on liver AMPKα and PPARs activities through activating AdipoRs and regulated downstream fatty acid metabolism. In addition, we analyzed the concentration difference of DCI in mouse liver and adipose tissue by the HRLC-MS/MS technology, indicating the preference of DCI in different tissues. Therefore, DCI relieved liver lipid deposition and hyperlipidemia potentially by promoting adiponectin synthesis in white adipose tissue and activating the AdipoR-AMPKα/PPARs pathway in the liver.

    d-Chiro-Inositol extends the lifespan of male Drosophila melanogaster better than d-Pinitol through insulin signaling and autophagy pathways[Pubmed: 35644418]
    d-Pinitol (DP) is the methylated product of d-chiro-Inositol (DCI), which is one of the nine isomers of inositol with optical activity. Both substances possess antioxidant activity. This study was conducted to investigate and compare the antioxidant and life-prolonging effects of DCI and DP on male Drosophila melanogaster. Results showed that DCI and DP prolonged the lifespan and improved the climbing, anti-stress, and antioxidant activities. After treatment with DCI and DP, intestinal homeostasis was improved and the abnormal proliferation of intestinal stem cells (ISCs) was attenuated. Furthermore, real-time PCR revealed downregulated expression levels of PI3K and Akt and upregulated expression levels of Dilp5 and FOXO, which consequently activated Atg1, Atg5, Atg8a, and Atg8b and increased the number of lysosomes. Altogether, DCI exerts a slightly better effect than DP based on various indicators. RNAi D. melanogaster lifespan and molecular docking results further suggested that DCI and DP could prolong longevity through insulin signaling (IIS) and autophagy pathways.

    Dietary administration of D-chiro-inositol attenuates sex-specific metabolic imbalances in the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer's disease[Pubmed: 35483188]
    Increasing evidence shows that hypothalamic dysfunction, insulin resistance, and weight loss precede and progress along with the cognitive decline in sporadic Alzheimer's Disease (AD) with sex differences. This study aimed to determine the effect of oral dietary administration of d-chiro-Inositol (DCI), an inositol used against insulin resistance associated with polycystic ovary, on the occurrence of metabolic disorders in the transgenic 5xFAD mouse model of AD (FAD: Family Alzheimer's Disease). DCI was administered from 6 to 10 months of age to male and female 5xFAD mice and control (non-Tg) littermates. Energy balance and multiple metabolic and inflammatory parameters in the hypothalamus, liver and plasma were evaluated to assess the central and peripheral effects of DCI. Results indicated that weight loss and reduced food intake in 5xFAD mice were associated with decreased neuropeptides controlling food intake and the appearance of a pro-inflammatory state in the hypothalamus. Oral administration of DCI partially restored energy balance and hypothalamic parameters, highlighting an increased expression of Npy and Agrp and female-specific downregulation of Gfap and Igf1. DCI also partially normalized impaired insulin signaling and circulating insulin, GLP-1, and GIP deficiencies in 5xFAD mice. Principal component analysis of metabolic parameters indicated the presence of a female-specific fatty liver in 5xFAD mice: DCI administration reversed hepatic fat accumulation, β-oxidation, inflammation and increased GOT and GPT levels. Our study depicts that metabolic impairment along with the cognitive decline in a mouse model of AD, which is exacerbated in females, can be ameliorated by oral supplementation with insulin-sensitizing DCI.

    The effect of D-chiro-inositol on renal protection in diabetic mice[Pubmed: 35439732]
    d-chiro-Inositol (DCI) exerts a hypoglycaemic effect, participates in lipid metabolism and reduces kidney damage. In this study, we preliminarily explored the protective effect of DCI on renal injury in diabetic mice. Male db/db mice were used in this study. After treatment with DCI (35 and 70 mg/kg/d) for 6 consecutive weeks, random blood glucose (RBG) measurements were conducted at 0 and 6 weeks. Creatinine (Cr) and serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels were measured using assay kit, and morphological changes in the kidneys were observed by HE staining, Masson staining and electron microscopy. Immunohistochemical and Western blot experiments were used to examine the protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ). We discovered that the increased RBG levels were alleviated after treatment with DCI. Moreover, the Cr and BUN levels were reduced, glomerular mesangial hyperplasia was alleviated, and the degree of renal fibrosis was reduced. In addition, DCI improved the protein expression of MMP-9 and PPAR-γ in kidney tissue, which in turn inhibited NF-κB protein expression, as shown by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Our findings showed that DCI ameliorated the renal injury induced by diabetes by upregulating MMP-9 and PPAR-γ expression and downregulating NF-κB expression. We preliminarily concluded that the renal protective effect of DCI on diabetic mice may occurs through the MMP-9/NF-κB signalling pathway.
