We recently identified the sulfated oxysterol, 5‐cholesten‐3beta, 25‐diol 3‐sulfate (25HC3S), as an important regulatory molecule. When cholesterol delivered to mitochondria was increased by overexpression of the transport protein StarD1 in primary rat hepatocytes, 25‐Hydroxycholesterol (25HC) and 25HC3S were ...

Development trends of human organoid‐based COVID‐19 research based on bibliometric analysis
Keyword co‐occurrence overlay visualization of the research of organoids for SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. More studies focused on pulmonary infection using organoid models at the early stages of the COVID‐19 pandemic. Recently, keywords included ‘drug repurposing’, ‘personalized medicine’, ‘repair’, ‘therapy’, ‘resistance’ and ‘therapeutics’ are more popular.

RORα and 25-Hydroxycholesterol Crosstalk Regulates Lipid Droplet Homeostasis in Macrophages. [PDF]
Nuclear hormone receptors have important roles in the regulation of metabolic and inflammatory pathways. The retinoid-related orphan receptor alpha (Rorα)-deficient staggerer (sg/sg) mice display several phenotypes indicative of aberrant lipid metabolism,

Chicken CH25H inhibits ALV-J replication by promoting cellular autophagy
Autophagy plays an important role in host antiviral defense. The avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) has been shown to inhibit autophagy while promoting viral replication. The underlying autophagic mechanisms, however, are unknown.

Activation of liver X receptor plays a central role in antiviral actions of 25-hydroxycholesterol
Production of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC), a potent inhibitor of viral infection, is catalyzed by cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H). We previously reported that 25HC induced CH25H expression in a liver X receptor (LXR)-dependent manner, implying that ...

Antiviral Actions of 25-Hydroxycholesterol in Fish Vary With the Virus-Host Combination
Cholesterol is essential for building and maintaining cell membranes and is critical for several steps in the replication cycle of viruses, especially for enveloped viruses. In mammalian cells virus infections lead to the accumulation of the oxysterol 25-

Phenotypic switch of vascular smooth muscle cells in COVID-19: Role of cholesterol, calcium, and phosphate. [PDF]
Abstract Although the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2), primarily manifests as severe respiratory distress, its impact on the cardiovascular system is also notable. Studies reveal that COVID‐19 patients often suffer from certain vascular diseases, partly attributed to ...

25-Hydroxycholesterol Inhibition of Lassa Virus Infection through Aberrant GP1 Glycosylation
Lassa virus (LASV) infection is a major public health concern due to high fatality rates and limited effective treatment. The interferon-stimulated gene cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the production of 25 ...

Biosynthesis of the regulatory oxysterol, 5-cholesten-3β,25-diol 3-sulfate, in hepatocytes
Cellular cholesterol homeostasis is maintained through coordinated regulation of cholesterol synthesis, degradation, and secretion. Nuclear receptors for oxygenated cholesterol derivatives (oxysterols) are known to play key roles in the regulation of ...
