inositol and Peroxisomal Disorders

inositol has been researched along with Peroxisomal Disorders in 2 studies

Inositol: An isomer of glucose that has traditionally been considered to be a B vitamin although it has an uncertain status as a vitamin and a deficiency syndrome has not been identified in man. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1379) Inositol phospholipids are important in signal transduction.
inositol : Any cyclohexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol.
1D-chiro-inositol : Belonging to the inositol family of compounds, D-chiro-inositol (DCI) is an isomer of glucose. It is an important secondary messenger in insulin signal transduction.
muco-inositol : An inositol that is cyclohexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol having a (1R,2R,3r,4R,5S,6r)-configuration.

Peroxisomal Disorders: A heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders marked by absent or dysfunctional PEROXISOMES. Peroxisomal enzymatic abnormalities may be single or multiple. Biosynthetic peroxisomal pathways are compromised, including the ability to synthesize ether lipids and to oxidize long-chain fatty acid precursors. Diseases in this category include ZELLWEGER SYNDROME; INFANTILE REFSUM DISEASE; rhizomelic chondrodysplasia (CHONDRODYSPLASIA PUNCTATA, RHIZOMELIC); hyperpipecolic acidemia; neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy; and ADRENOLEUKODYSTROPHY (X-linked). Neurologic dysfunction is a prominent feature of most peroxisomal disorders.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Late juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCL) is a lysosomal neurodegenerative disorder caused by the accumulation of lipopigment in neurons."1.30MR imaging and localized proton MR spectroscopy in late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. ( Grodd, W; Klose, U; Nägele, T; Schwab, A; Seeger, U; Seitz, D, 1998)
"Despite regional variability of demyelination, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed a specific metabolic pattern in all patients, with only moderate reduction of N-acetylaspartate, normal or reduced choline-containing compounds, normal or enhanced myo-inositol and no detectable lactate, which differs from findings in progressive cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy which usually exhibits a severe reduction of N-acetylaspartate and marked increases of choline-containing compounds, myo-inositol, and lactate."1.29Arrested cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy: a clinical and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy study in three patients. ( Frahm, J; Hanefeld, F; Hunneman, DH; Jost, W; Korenke, GC; Krasemann, E; Pouwels, PJ; Stoeckler, S, 1996)
