chiro-inositol deficiency and insulin resistance: a comparison of the chiro-inositol- and the myo-inositol-containing insulin mediators isolated from urine, hemodialysate, and muscle of control and type II diabetic subjects.
chiro- and myo-Inositols are major components of the two inositol phosphoglycan mediators of insulin action. Previous work in this laboratory has shown hypo-chiro-inositoluria in type II diabetic subjects and decreased chiro-inositol in mediator prepared .....
