Activation of liver X receptor plays a central role in antiviral actions of 25-hydroxycholesterol

Journal of Lipid Research, 2018
Production of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC), a potent inhibitor of viral infection, is catalyzed by cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H). We previously reported that 25HC induced CH25H expression in a liver X receptor (LXR)-dependent manner, implying that ...

Multi‐Omics Insights Into the Role of Fructooligosaccharides Supplementation in Alleviating Salpingitis in Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 105-119, February 2026.
Multi‐omics analysis revealed that FOS supplementation increased the abundance of Phascolarctobacterium, GCA‐900066575, Shuttleworthia, Olsenella, Eubacterium_hallii_group while decreasing Alistipes. It also influenced the metabolism of S‐lactoylglutathione, p‐cresol glucuronate, 2‐phenylethanol glucuronide, propionic acid, dulcitol, and inhibited the ...

Krüppel‐Like Factor 4, a Hub Gate for Cell Crosstalk in Tumor Microenvironment

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2026.
Krüppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4) exhibits a dual, context‐dependent role, acting as both a tumor suppressor and an oncogene. It remodels the tumor microenvironment by modulating cancer, stromal, and immune cells, representing a promising yet complex therapeutic target for cancer treatment.

Natural Products as Potential Resource Library for Control of Major Swine Enteric Viruses

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Major swine enteric viruses (SEVs), including porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), swine acute diarrhea syndrome coronavirus (SADS‐CoV), and porcine rotavirus (PoRV), cause severe gastrointestinal diseases in pigs, leading to huge economic losses to the swine industry ...

LL‐37 Inhibits TMPRSS2‐Mediated S2' Site Cleavage and SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection but Not Omicron Variants

Cell Proliferation, Volume 58, Issue 12, December 2025.
Cathelicidin LL‐37 inhibits SARS‐CoV‐2 by blocking the catalytic activity of TMPRSS2. The N764K mutation in the spike S2 subunit of Omicron variants confers resistance to LL‐37‐induced inhibition of TMPRSS2‐mediated S2' priming. ABSTRACT Continual evolution of SARS‐CoV‐2 spike drives the emergence of Omicron variants that show increased spreading and ...

Marked upregulation of cholesterol 25-hydroxylase expression by lipopolysaccharide

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
During screening of genes upregulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS; endotoxin) treatment of bone marrow-derived mouse macrophages, it was unexpectedly found that cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (Ch25h) was strongly upregulated.

Extracellular LCN2 Binding to 24p3R in Astrocytes Impedes α‐Synuclein Endocytosis in Parkinson's Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 39, October 20, 2025.
24p3R is an astrocytic receptor for α‐Syn uptake. When LCN2 is secreted from astrocytes, it binds to its receptor 24p3R in astrocytes and this binding impedes the α‐Syn PFF binding to 24p3R. This in turn inhibits 24p3R‐mediated α‐Syn PFF uptake and reduces the clearance of extracellular α‐Syn by astrocytes, which contributes to α‐Syn spread and ...

Regulating Innate and Adaptive Immunity for Controlling SIV Infection by 25-Hydroxycholesterol

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Persistent inflammation and extensive immune activation have been associated with HIV-1/SIV pathogenesis. Previously, we reported that cholesterol-25-hydroxylase (CH25H) and its metabolite 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) had a broad antiviral activity in ...

Transgenic tomatoes expressing the 6F peptide and ezetimibe prevent diet-induced increases of IFN-β and cholesterol 25-hydroxylase in jejunum

Journal of Lipid Research, 2017
Feeding LDL receptor (LDLR)-null mice a Western diet (WD) increased the expression of IFN-β in jejunum as determined by quantitative RT-PCR (RT-qPCR), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and ELISA (all P < 0.0001). WD also increased the expression of cholesterol
