Recently, we demonstrated a net blood-to-brain passage of the oxysterol 27-hydroxycholesterol corresponding to 4–5 mg/day. As the steady-state levels of this sterol are only 1–2 μg/g brain tissue, we hypothesized that it is metabolized and subsequently ...

27-Hydroxycholesterol impairs neuronal glucose uptake through an IRAP/GLUT4 system dysregulation
Hypercholesterolemia is associated with cognitively deteriorated states. Here, we show that excess 27-hydroxycholesterol (27-OH), a cholesterol metabolite passing from the circulation into the brain, reduced in vivo brain glucose uptake, GLUT4 expression,

Perturbed cholesterol metabolism may play an important role in the development of dementia and its preclinical stage, mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Oxysterols, the metabolites generated during cholesterol oxidation, also appear to be risk factors for ...

27-Hydroxycholesterol Promotes Cell-Autonomous, ER-Positive Breast Cancer Growth
SummaryTo date, estrogen is the only known endogenous estrogen receptor (ER) ligand that promotes ER+ breast tumor growth. We report that the cholesterol metabolite 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC) stimulates MCF-7 cell xenograft growth in mice.

Serum 24S-hydroxycholesterol and hippocampal size in middle-aged normal individuals
The present study assessed the association between serum 24S-hydroxycholesterol (24S-OH-Chol) and 27-hydroxycholesterol (27-OH-Chol) and hippocampal volumes in 69 middle-aged cognitively normal individuals.
