Plasma 24S-hydroxycholesterol correlation with markers of Huntington disease progression [PDF]

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2013
24S-hydroxycholesterol (24OHC) is involved in the conversion of excess cholesterol in the brain, and its level in plasma is related to the number of metabolically active neuronal cells.

Population pharmacokinetics, enzyme occupancy, and 24S‐hydroxycholesterol modeling of soticlestat, a novel cholesterol 24‐hydroxylase inhibitor, in healthy adults [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Translational Science, 2023
Soticlestat is a first‐in‐class, selective inhibitor of cholesterol 24‐hydroxylase (CH24H), which catabolizes cholesterol to 24S‐hydroxycholesterol (24HC) in the brain, in phase III development for Dravet syndrome and Lennox–Gastaut syndrome treatment ...

Effects of Complete and Partial Loss of the 24S-Hydroxycholesterol-Generating Enzyme Cyp46a1 on Behavior and Hippocampal Transcription in Mouse [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules
Brain cholesterol metabolic products include neurosteroids and oxysterols, which play important roles in cellular physiology. In neurons, the cholesterol oxidation product, 24S-hydroxycholesterol (24S-HC), is a regulator of signaling and transcription ...

24S-hydroxycholesterol and 25-hydroxycholesterol differentially impact hippocampal neuronal survival following oxygen-glucose deprivation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs), a major subtype of glutamate receptor mediating excitatory transmission throughout the CNS, participate in ischemia-induced neuronal death.

Plasma levels of 24S-hydroxycholesterol reflect the balance between cerebral production and hepatic metabolism and are inversely related to body surface

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2000
We have previously presented evidence that most of the 24S-hydroxycholesterol present in the circulation originates from the brain and that most of the elimination of this oxysterol occurs in the liver.

Targeting Brain Cholesterol Homeostasis in Alzheimer's Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Neurochem
Brain cholesterol homeostasis is tightly regulated and largely independent of peripheral cholesterol. This review proposes a unifying framework in which aging, sex, and related biological stressors, including hypercholesterolemia, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and oxidative stress, converge to disrupt cholesterol homeostasis in the brain ...

24S-Hydroxycholesterol Correlates With Tau and Is Increased in Cerebrospinal Fluid in Parkinson's Disease and Corticobasal Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
24S-hydroxycholesterol (24OHC) and Tau are produced in neuronal cells and neurodegeneration leads to increased flux of both of them into cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

Cytoprotective Activities of Milk Thistle Seed Oil Used in Traditional Tunisian Medicine on 7-Ketocholesterol and 24S-Hydroxycholesterol-Induced Toxicity on 158N Murine Oligodendrocytes [PDF]

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2018
The Asteraceae family is economically very important, because many of these plants are grown mainly for their food value, such as lettuce (Lactuca), chicory (Cichorium), and sunflower (Heliantus aminus).
