Measurement variability of plasma β-sitosterol and campesterol, two new biomarkers for cancer prevention

European Journal of Cancer Prevention, 2001
Phytosterols are plant sterols that are structurally similar to cholesterol and are characterized by anti-carcinogenic and anti-atherogenic properties. Beta-sitosterol and campesterol are the predominant phytosterols in blood. The present study aimed to analyse the reproducibility and overtime reliability of plasma beta-sitosterol and campesterol ...

Increased flux of the plant sterols campesterol and sitosterol across a disrupted blood brain barrier

Steroids, 2015
The intact blood-brain barrier in mammalians prevents exchange of cholesterol loaden particles between periphery and brain and thus nearly all cholesterol in this organ originates from de novo synthesis. Dietary cholesterol homologues from plants, campesterol and sitosterol, are known to get enriched to some extent in the mammalian brain.

β-Sitosterol and campesterol stabilisation by natural and synthetic antioxidants during heating

Food Chemistry, 2011
Abstract The aim of this study was to estimate the effect of natural and synthetic antioxidants in protecting phytosterols during heating at 180 °C. Green tea extract, rosemary extract, a mix of tocopherols from rapeseed oil, a mix of synthetic tocopherols, phenolic compounds extracted from rapeseed meal, sinapic acid and BHT were used.

Effect of a statin on hepatic apolipoprotein B-100 secretion and plasma campesterol levels in the metabolic syndrome

International Journal of Obesity, 2003
We aimed to study the effect of atorvastatin, a statin, on cholesterol synthesis and absorption and VLDL-apoB metabolism in obese men with the metabolic syndrome.A total of 25 dyslipidaemic obese men were randomized to atorvastatin (n=13) (40 mg/day) or matching placebo (n=12) for 6 weeks.

24‐Methylenecholesterol: Isolation and identification as an intermediate in the conversion of campesterol to cholesterol in the tobacco hornworm

Lipids, 1972
Abstract24‐Methylenecholesterol was positively identified as an intermediate in the dealkylation and the conversion of campesterol to cholesterol in the tobacco hornworm,Manduca sexta (L.). Biochemical and nutritional studies with3H‐labeled campesterol and 24‐methyl‐enecholesterol indicated that the conversion of campesterol to cholesterol in this ...
