Inhibition of herpes simplex-1 virus replication by 25-hydroxycholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol

Redox Biology, 2017
Oxysterols are known pleiotropic molecules whose antiviral action has been recently discovered. Here reported is the activity of a panel of oxysterols against HSV-1 with the identification of a new mechanism of action.

4β-Hydroxycholesterol Signals From the Liver to Regulate Peripheral Cholesterol Transporters

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Activation of pregnane X receptor (PXR) elevates circulating 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4βHC), an agonist of liver X receptor (LXR). PXR may also regulate 25-hydroxycholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol.

Metabolic Regulation of Immune Responses: Molecular Mechanisms, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
FBP1 loss drives immune evasion and therapy resistance by enhancing glycolysis, STAT3 activation, and PD‐L1 expression, leading to T cell exhaustion and NK cell inhibition. FBP1 restoration, via LNP‐mRNA or epigenetic modulation, reverses these immunosuppressive effects, reactivates cytotoxic T cells, promotes M1 macrophage polarization, and enhances ...

The Use of Statins in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's Disease: A 2021–2025 State‐of‐the‐Art Review of Clinical and Preclinical Evidence

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Statins, widely prescribed for cardiovascular prevention, have emerged as potential disease‐modifying agents in neurodegenerative disorders due to their pleiotropic effects on cholesterol metabolism, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and protein aggregation.

Altitude‐Associated Divergence of the Gut Microbiome in Endangered Forest Musk Deer: Evidence From Integrated Metagenomics, Metabolomics, and Culturomics

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐altitude environments expose mammals and their gut symbionts to multifaceted stressors—hypoxia, cold, and intense UV radiation. Whether gut microbial communities undergo compositional restructuring in response to these stressors, and whether such restructuring carries translational value for captive conservation, remain unresolved ...

Serum cholestenoic acid as a potential marker of pulmonary cholesterol homeostasis

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
The conversion of cholesterol into the more polar metabolites 27-hydroxycholesterol (27-OH) and cholestenoic acid by the cytochrome P450 sterol 27-hydroxylase is a cholesterol-removal mechanism used by almost all cells.

Targeting Brain Cholesterol Homeostasis in Alzheimer's Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 6, June 2026.
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 ...

Increased maternal and fetal cholesterol efflux capacity and placental CYP27A1 expression in preeclampsia[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2017
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific condition that leads to increased cardiovascular risk in later life. A decrease in cholesterol efflux capacity is linked to CVD.

Unravelling the biochemical aspects of the interaction between ticks and Leishmania using a tick cell line

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 350-359, June 2026.
Leishmania infantum propagated in IDE8 tick cell line in vitro. L. infantum reduces tick cell viability and induces reactive oxygen species production. Lipidic profile of IDE8 tick cell line is altered during Leishmania infection. Abstract Leishmaniasis comprises a group of vector‐borne neglected tropical diseases caused by species of the obligatory ...
