Localization of sterols and oxysterols in mouse brain reveals distinct spatial cholesterol metabolism [PDF]
Dysregulated cholesterol metabolism is implicated in a number of neurological disorders. Many sterols, including cholesterol and its precursors and metabolites, are biologically active and important for proper brain function. However, spatial cholesterol

Abstract Background Elevated low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol causes atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. Variables of whole‐body cholesterol metabolism, for example, high cholesterol absorption efficiency, might also be atherogenic, whereas the role of bile acids is controversial.

Characterization of several hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) cultivars based in chemical, fatty acid and sterol composition [PDF]
Nineteen cultivars of hazelnuts (Corylus avellana L.) collected during the 2001 crop, from Vila Real, Portugal, were analysed for chemical composition, including moisture, total oil content, crude protein, ash, carbohydrates and nutritional value.

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.

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.

The ecdysteroidome of Drosophila: influence of diet and development [PDF]
Ecdysteroids are the hormones regulating development, physiology and fertility in arthropods, which synthesize them exclusively from dietary sterols. But how dietary sterol diversity influences the ecdysteroid profile, how animals ensure the production ...
