Biosynthesis of cholestanol in higher plants

Phytochemistry, 2002
To understand the early steps of C(27) brassinosteroid biosynthesis, metabolic experiments were performed with Arabidopsis thaliana and Nicotiana tabacum seedlings, and with cultured Catharanthus roseus cells. [26, 28-2H(6)]Campestanol, [26-2H(3)]cholesterol, and [26-2H(3)]cholestanol were administered to each plant, and the resulting metabolites were ...

Cholestanol induces apoptosis of cerebellar neuronal cells.

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1999
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a hereditary lipid storage disease characterized by hyper-cholestanolemia, cerebellar ataxia, xanthoma, and cataract. We hypothesized that cholestanol in serum of CTX patients might induce neuronal cell death in the cerebellum and eventually lead to cerebellar ataxia.

Cholestanol Metabolism, Molecular Pathology, and Nutritional Implications

Journal of Medicinal Food, 2003
Cholestanol, not cholesterol, is a minor component in the human body and in foods, but an increase in cholestanol concentration in serum induces a pathological condition named cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX). In our investigation of this disease for more than 25 years, a procedure for quantification of cholestanol by high-performance liquid ...

Cholestanol: A serum marker to guide LDL cholesterol-lowering therapy

Atherosclerosis, 2006
Statins have been the mainstay of lipid-lowering therapy since their introduction. However, as lower LDL cholesterol targets are sought, adjunct therapies are becoming increasingly important. Few patients reach new targets with statin monotherapy. We propose that the cholestanol:cholesterol ratio can be used to guide lipid-lowering therapy and result ...
