Product Information
- 1,9-Dihydro-9-beta-L-ribofuranosyl-6H-purin-6-one
L-Inosine is a purine nucleoside that is found in plants and animals. It is an intermediate in the pentose phosphate pathway and can be synthesized from the amino acid L-lysine. L-Inosine has been shown to inhibit the growth of trichomonas vaginalis and giardia, but not uninfected human erythrocytes. The mechanism of action of L-Inosine is not well understood, but it may have a role in transporting adenosine into cells. The oral bioavailability of L-Inosine is low due to its rapid conversion to l-adenosine by nonsaturable enzymes. L-Inosine does not appear to be a substrate for transport across mammalian cells, but it does act as a competitive inhibitor for glucose transport.
