trans-Aconitic acid
trans-Aconitic acid, also known as trans-aconitate or (e)-aconitic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tricarboxylic acids and derivatives. These are carboxylic acids containing exactly three carboxyl groups. trans-Aconitic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. trans-Aconitic acid is a dry, musty, and nut tasting compound. Outside of the human body, trans-aconitic acid has been detected, but not quantified in several different foods, such as garden tomato fruits, root vegetables, soy beans, and rices. trans-Aconitic acid is normally present in human urine, and it has been suggested that is present in larger amounts with Reyes syndrome and organic aciduria. trans-Aconitic acid in the urine is a biomarker for the consumption of soy products. trans-Aconitic acid is a substrate of enzyme trans-Aconitic acid 2-methyltransferase (EC2.1.1.144). Isolated from Asarum europaeum, from cane-sugar molasses, roasted chicory root, roasted malt barley, passion fruit, sorghum root and sugar beet. Flavouring agent used in fruit flavours and alcoholic beverages. Aconitic acid is an organic acid. The two isomers are cis-aconitic acid and trans-aconitic acid. The conjugate base of cis-aconitic acid, cis-aconitate is an intermediate in the isomerisation of citrate to isocitrate in the citric acid cycle. It is acted upon by aconitase. Trans-aconitate in the urine is a biomarker for the consumption of soy products. (E)-Aconitic acid is found in many foods, some of which are cereals and cereal products, rice, garden tomato (variety), and root vegetables. Acquisition and generation of the data is financially supported in part by CREST/JST.

scyllo-Inositol
scyllo-Inositol or scyllitol is an inositol isoform. Inositol is a derivative of cyclohexane with six hydroxyl groups, making it a polyol. It also is known as a sugar alcohol, having exactly the same molecular formula as glucose or other hexoses. Inositol exists in nine possible stereoisomers, including scyllo-inositol, myo-inositol (the most abundant), muco-inositol, D-chiro-inositol, L-chiro-inositol, neo-inositol, allo-inositol, epi-inositol, and cis-inositol. scyllo-Inositol was first isolated from the kidneys of fish in 1858 by Staedeler and Freierchs. scyllo-Inositol is a naturally occurring plant sugar alcohol found most abundantly in the coconut palm. It appears to accumulate in a number of human tissues and biofluids through dietary consumption. It 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). Results reported by Viola et al (PMID: 15340856) suggest that high CSF concentrations of scyllo-inositol can be induced by chronic alcoholism. scyllo-Inositol when fed to transgenic mice that exhibit a memory disease very similar to human Alzheimers disease, can block the accumulation of soluble amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques in the brain. scyllo-Inositol was found to reverse memory deficits in the mice, reduce the amount of Aβ plaque in the brains of the mice, and reversed other symptoms associated with the presence of Aβ in the brain (PMID: 16767098). Scyllitol is an isomer of cyclohexanehexol or inositol. It was first isolated from the kidneys of fish in 1858 by Staedeler and Freierchs.

D-chiro-Inositol is used clinically for the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and diabetes mellitus, which can reduce hyperglycemia and ameliorate insulin resistance[1][2][3]. i-Inositol is a chemical compound related to lipids found in many foods, especially fruits such as cantaloupe and oranges. i-Inositol is a chemical compound related to lipids found in many foods, especially fruits such as cantaloupe and oranges. Scyllo-Inositol, an amyloid inhibitor, potentialy inhibits α-synuclein aggregation. Scyllo-Inositol stabilizes a non-fibrillar non-toxic form of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ42) in vitro, reverses cognitive deficits, and reduces synaptic toxicity and lowers amyloid plaques in an Alzheimer's disease mouse model[1].

epi-Inositol
epi-Inositol is an inositol isoform. Inositol is a derivative of cyclohexane with six hydroxyl groups, making it a polyol. It also is known as a sugar alcohol, having exactly the same molecular formula as glucose or other hexoses.

In humans, most inositol is synthesized in the kidneys, typically in amounts of a few grams per day.
