Sex difference in flux of 27-hydroxycholesterol into the brain. [PDF]
Background and PurposeThe cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)/plasma albumin ratio (QAlb) is believed to reflect the integrity of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). Recently, we reported that QAlb is lower in females. This may be important for uptake of neurotoxic 27‐hydroxycholesterol (27OH) by the brain in particular because plasma levels of 27OH are higher in ...

Proliferation of human mammary cancer cells exposed to 27-hydroxycholesterol [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to identify the possible mechanisms by which certain estradiol receptor (ER)-positive mammary tumor cells remain resistant to treatment with anti-estrogens or inhibitors of local estradiol (E(2)) production. To this end, we compared the proliferative effects on mammary cancer cells of the novel selective ER modulator 27-

Inhibition of Marek's Disease Virus Replication and Spread by 25-hydroxycholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol In Vitro. [PDF]
Marek’s disease virus (MDV) causes a deadly lymphoproliferative disease in chickens, resulting in huge economic losses in the poultry industry. It has been suggested that MDV suppresses the induction of type I interferons and thus escapes immune control.

The role of 27-hydroxycholesterol in meta-inflammation. [PDF]
27-Hydroxycholesterol (27OHChol), a prominent cholesterol metabolite present in the bloodstream and peripheral tissues, is a kind of immune oxysterol that elicits immune response. Recent research indicates the involvement of 27OHChol in metabolic inflammation (meta-inflammation) characterized by chronic responses associated with metabolic ...

Deciphering the role of 27-hydroxycholesterol in neurodegeneration
Cholesterol is constantly attributed to neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This is due to the association of high blood cholesterol and the consequences of cholesterol metabolism in these conditions. However the brain isolates itself from the peripheral cholesterol with the use of its impervious barrier, therefore how does ...

The Cytotoxicity of 27-Hydroxycholesterol in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231. [PDF]
Abstract Background: Although several roles of 27-hydroxycholesterol (27-HC), the most abundant oxysterol in blood circulation, in cancers have been elucidated, its impact on breast cancer proliferation and its pathway remain unknown.

27-hydroxycholesterol and DNA damage repair: implication in prostate cancer. [PDF]
IntroductionWe previously reported that cholesterol homeostasis in prostate cancer (PC) is regulated by 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC) and that CYP27A1, the enzyme that converts cholesterol to 27HC, is frequently lost in PCs. We observed that restoring the CYP27A1/27HC axis inhibited PC growth.
