The coordinated control of cholesterol biosynthesis and esterification by 25-hydroxycholesterol was studied in the macrophage-like cell line P388D1. Since 25-hydroxycholesterol rapidly stimulated incorporation of [3H]oleate into the cholesteryl ester ...

Marked accumulation of 27-hydroxycholesterol in SPG5 patients with hereditary spastic paresis
Patients with a recessively inherited “pure” hereditary spastic paresis (SPG5) have mutations in the gene coding for the oxysterol 7 α hydroxylase (CYP7B1).

25-Hydroxycholesterol stimulates sphingomyelin synthesis in Chinese hamster ovary cells.
In several experimental and pathological conditions the cellular concentrations of cholesterol and sphingomyelin (SM) change coordinately. In an effort to identify factors mediating co-regulation, a class of suppressors of cholesterol synthesis ...

Iso-octyl chain-hydroxylated oxysterols were determined in attomoles per 10,000 cells concentrations in 10,000–80,000 cultured pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, using a sensitive, highly automated nano-LC-ESI-MS-based method.

Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry and mass spectrometry imaging were used in combination with deuterium oxide administration to quantify and localise newly synthesised myelin lipids in the mouse brain. This methodology, used here to show sites of myelin repair, enables the measurement of dynamic lipid synthesis in living systems and ...

Oxygenation of desmosterol and cholesterol in cell cultures.
In order to determine whether hydration of the delta 24 bond of desmosterol contributes to the formation of the regulatory oxysterol, 25-hydroxycholesterol, [3H]desmosterol was incubated with two cultured cell lines and the labeled products were analyzed.

Simultaneous determination of oxysterols, cholesterol and 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3 in human plasma by LC-UV-MS. [PDF]
Oxysterols are promising biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases that are linked with cholesterol and vitamin D metabolism. There is an unmet need for methods capable of sensitive, and simultaneous quantitation of multiple oxysterols, vitamin D and ...
