Changes in brain oxysterols at different stages of Alzheimer's disease: Their involvement in neuroinflammation

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2016
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a gradually debilitating disease that leads to dementia. The molecular mechanisms underlying AD are still not clear, and at present no reliable biomarkers are available for the early diagnosis.

Associations between serum estradiol and estrone and Alzheimer's disease biomarkers: An analysis in female participants from the European Prevention of Alzheimer's Dementia Longitudinal Cohort Study (EPAD LCS)

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Postmenopausal estrogen decline may contribute to Alzheimer's disease (AD), but evidence linking circulating estrogens to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) AD biomarkers remains limited. METHODS We analyzed 854 female participants from the European Prevention of Alzheimer's Dementia Longitudinal Cohort Study with baseline serum estradiol ...

Biomimetic mineralization‐inspired formulation‐adjuvant integrated circRNA nanovaccine against COVID‐19

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, Volume 4, Issue 5, September 2026.
Inspired by the role of Mg2+ in stabilizing RNA secondary structures, we developed a one‐pot biomimetic mineralization method for synthesizing a circular RNA‐based nanovaccine (circRNA@FAiNVac) that integrates formulation and adjuvant functions. This nanovaccine exhibits potent immunostimulatory activation enabling multimodal immune responses and ...

Insights from the Structure of Estrogen Receptor into the Evolution of Estrogens: Implications for Endocrine Disruption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the last decade, there has been important progress in understanding the origins and evolution of receptors for adrenal steroids (aldosterone, cortisol) and sex steroids (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone) due to the sequencing of genomes from ...

Studies on the oxysterols 4alpha- and 4beta-hydroxycholesterol

open access: yes, 2011
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes catalyze the metabolism of both foreign and endogenous substances such as drugs and steroids. Enzymes in subfamily CYP3A sum up to 30% of the total CYP content in the liver and metabolize about 50% of all drugs.

Baat‐Deficient Mice Recapitulate Elevated 7α‐Hydroxy‐3‐Oxo‐4‐Cholestenoic Acid Observed in a Japanese Patient With BAAT Deficiency

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACTBile acid Coenzyme A: amino acid N‐acyltransferase (BAAT) catalyzes the conjugation of bile acids with taurine or glycine, a process essential for bile acid solubility and intestinal lipid absorption. Mutations in BAAT cause an inborn error of bile acid metabolism, typically characterized by reduced conjugated bile acids and fat‐soluble vitamin

Oxysterols in Cancer: From Biosynthesis and Pathophysiology to Targeted Therapeutics

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Mechanisms by which oxysterol targeting may enhance immunotherapy efficacy. This figure illustrates potential metabolic interventions that may improve antitumor immunity by modulating oxysterol related pathways. CH25H modulation may reduce 25‐HC accumulation, promote the conversion of cold tumors into hot tumors, and increase T cell infiltration and PD‐

A comprehensive method for extraction and quantitative analysis of sterols and secosteroids from human plasma

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
We describe the development of a method for the extraction and analysis of 62 sterols, oxysterols, and secosteroids from human plasma using a combination of HPLC-MS and GC-MS. Deuterated standards are added to 200 μl of human plasma.

Low‐Dose Fisetin Supplementation and Its Association With Chronic Inflammation in Middle‐Aged and Older Adults: Study Protocol for a Triple‐Blind, Randomised, Placebo‐Controlled Trial

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 139, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Systemic chronic inflammation contributes to the development of many age‐related chronic diseases and represents a promising target for interventions aiming at promoting healthy aging. Fisetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid with anti‐inflammatory, antioxidant and senolytic effects in vitro and in animal models, but evidence from randomised

Cholesterol‐Mediated Metabolic‐mechanotransductive Crosstalk Orchestrates Castration Resistance in Prostate Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 48, 28 August 2026.
Full androgen deprivation (FAD) induces paracrine cholesterol in prostate cancer that drives the polarization of cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and subsequent elevated matrix stiffness. Matrix stiffness in turn potentiates tumor cell survival under FAD pressure via dual mechanotransductive activation of the IRE1α‐XBP1s stress‐response axis ...
