Plasma Campesterol Is Positively Associated with Carotid Plaques in Asymptomatic Subjects

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Background: Increased cholesterol absorption and reduced synthesis are processes that have been associated with cardiovascular disease risk in a controversial way. However, most of the studies involving markers of cholesterol synthesis and absorption include conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, which can be confounding factors.

Unveiling the approach of campesterol: Its application and circular bio-economy

CABI Reviews
Abstract Campesterol is a naturally occurring phytosterol found in the plant cell membranes, and it shows medicinal uses in nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals due to its strong biological activities, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties.

Phytosterols Are Involved in Sclareol-Induced Chlorophyll Reductions in Arabidopsis

Plants, 2023
Sclareol, a diterpene, has a wide range of physiological effects on plants, such as antimicrobial activity; disease resistance against pathogens; and the expression of genes encoding proteins involved in metabolism, transport, and phytohormone ...

Analysis of bioaccessibility of campesterol, stigmasterol, and β-sitosterol in maize by in vitro digestion method

Journal of Cereal Science, 2020
Abstract The content of campesterol, stigmasterol, and β-sitosterol in raw and cooked Big Flint Maize (BFM), Pop Corn Maize (PCM) and Red Maize (RM) were analyzed by using a chemical method and using in vitro digestion of cooked samples. RM contained 15.14, 8.36, and 72.19 mg/100 g campesterol, stigmasterol, and β-sitosterol, respectively, which were

Plasma campesterol and ABCG5/ABCG8 gene loci on the risk of cholelithiasis and cholecystitis: evidence from Mendelian randomization and colocalization analyses

Human Genomics
The causal relationships between plasma metabolites and cholelithiasis/cholecystitis risks remain elusive. Using two-sample Mendelian randomization, we found that genetic proxied plasma campesterol level showed negative correlation with the risk of both ...

Modification of phytosterol composition influences cotton fiber cell elongation and secondary cell wall deposition

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Cotton fiber is a single cell that arises from the epidermis of ovule. It is not only a main economic product of cotton, but an ideal material for studying on the growth and development of plant cell.
