Separation of sterols by vapor-programmed thin-layer chromatography
By vapor-programmed thin-layer chromatography on silica gel, it was possible to separate cholestanol from cholesterol and stigmastanol from β-sitosterol. The method was applied for the analysis of β-sitosterol-3-14C.

7α-Hydroxylation of cholestanol by rat liver microsomes
In a study of the mechanism whereby 5α-bile acids are formed from cholestanol, the 7α-hydroxylation of cholestanol was investigated in rat liver preparations in vitro.

ABSTRACT Geochemical data compiled from dried sediments from three water reservoirs at the ancient Maya city of Ucanal, Petén, Guatemala, reveal low to undetectable fecal biomarker concentrations. These low concentrations may be the result of the aerobic decay of sterols combined with well‐managed waste disposal practices.

Chemoselective hydride abstractor iminometalloids, derived from O‐mesylacetoxime (MAO) using Rh2(II/II) or Cu(I) catalysts, can activate the C–Hα bonds of alcohols and aldehydes ultimately forming ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters even in the presence of C–H bonds with comparable bond strengths.

The esterification of phosphinic, phosphonic, and phosphoric acids is not possible due the high enthalpy of activation. However, the barrier may be overcome under MW irradiation to give phosphinates, phosphonates, and alkoxyphosphoric acids, respectively. In the latter cases, the remaining P(O)OH group was esterified by alkylation.

Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare, recessively inherited lipid storage disease characterized by a markedly reduced production of chenodeoxycholic acid and an increased formation of 25-hydroxylated bile alcohols and cholestanol. Patients with

Synthesis of conjugated cholesterol and cholestanols.
The glucuronides, sulfates, glucosides and N-acetylglucosaminides of cholesterol and epimeric 5α-cholestan-3-ols have been synthesized. The formation of a β-glucoside linkage was readily achieved by means of the Koenigs-Knorr reaction with the corresponding α-acetohalosugar, employing cadmium carbonate as a catalyst.

Serum plant sterols and biliary cholesterol secretion in humans
Ratios of cholestanol, campesterol, and sitosterol to cholesterol in serum are known to reflect cholesterol absorption efficiency. Here, a possible link between these ratios and biliary secretion rates of cholesterol was investigated.

Phytochemicals in Asthma Management: Mechanism, Translational Gap and Clinical Integration
The phytochemicals including flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, and saponins modulate inflammatory, oxidative, and immune pathways in asthma. It highlights their mechanisms of action, translational challenges, advanced formulation strategies, and emerging clinical potential as adjunct therapies for precision‐based asthma management.
