Heterogeneous tempo and mode of evolutionary diversification of compounds in lizard chemical signals [PDF]
, 2017 Important part of the multivariate selection shaping social and interspecific interactions among and within animal species emerges from communication. Therefore, understanding the diversification of signals for animal communication is a central endeavor ...

Conversion of cholesterol injected into man to cholestanol via a 3-ketonic intermediate
Journal of Lipid Research, 1967 Cholesterol-3-3H,4-14C was injected intravenously in man and its transformation to cholestanol was studied. From the 3H:14C ratios in cholestanol isolated from blood, evidence for the participation of a ketonic intermediate in the conversion was obtained.

Low density lipoprotein cholesterol is inversely correlated with abdominal visceral fat area: a magnetic resonance imaging study [PDF]
, 2011 Background Visceral Fat Area (VFA) is an independent predictor of coronary disease. While low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is used to determine risk and guide therapy, its accuracy fails in obese patients who may have low LDL-C despite high ...

Experimental isovalthinuria. III. Induction by bile acids, and hypocholesterolemic agents [PDF]
, 1963 Some bile acids (dehydrocholic, cholic, chenodeoxycholic, ursodeoxycholic, and deoxycholic acids), and some hypocholesterolemic agents (22, 25 diazacholestanol, 20,25-diazacholesterol, triparanol, and SKF 525-A) are the inducers of isovalthinuria in ...

High levels of plant sterols and cholesterol precursors in cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1991 We measured the cholestanol, cholesterol precursor (lathosterol), and plant sterol (campesterol and sitosterol) concentrations of serum and bile in 11 patients with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis.

Familial variability of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis lacking typical biochemical findings
JIMD Reports, 2021 Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of bile acid synthesis caused by pathogenic variants in the CYP27A1 gene encoding the mitochondrial enzyme sterol 27‐hydroxylase.
