Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis
Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2013 Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare neurological disease characterized by accumulation of cholesterol and cholestanol in brain and tendons caused by a mutation in the sterol 27-hydroxylase gene (CYP27A1). The mechanism behind the accumulation of cholestanol in the brain was recently clarified and a role of 27-hydroxycholesterol as a ...
