Synthesis, Physical Properties, and In Vitro-Simulated Gastrointestinal Digestion of Hydrophilic β‑Sitosterol Sugar Esters

open access: yes, 2022
Hydrophilic β-sitosterol sugar esters were synthesized by a two-step biocatalytic approach using β-sitosterol vinyl adipate as an intermediate. The maximum conversion (above 90%) of β-sitosterol vinyl adipate was achieved using the saccharides glucose ...

β-sitosterol inhibits trimethylamine production by regulating the gut microbiota and attenuates atherosclerosis in ApoE–/– mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
The intestinal microbial metabolite trimethylamine (TMA), which is activated by flavin monooxygenase (FMO) to produce trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis (AS), leading to the development of ...
