Cholesteryl Fatty Acid Esters and Free Cholesterol in Food of Animal Origin

European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 128, Issue 1, January 2026.
Cholesterol occurs in free (bioavailable) and esterified (transport/storage) forms. Here, we present a method that allows both forms to be determined independently. Finally, the quantities of free and esterified cholesterol were determined in several meat, animal fat, and cheese samples.

Arabidopsis root lipid droplets are hubs for membrane homeostasis under heat stress, and triterpenoid synthesis and storage

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 892-916, January 2026.
Summary Plant lipid droplets (LDs) and their associated proteins have numerous subcellular and physiological functions. While considerable progress has been made for LDs in many tissues, the function and composition of LDs in roots remain largely unexplored.

The Influence of Schwann Cell Metabolism and Dysfunction on Axon Maintenance

Glia, Volume 73, Issue 12, Page 2338-2352, December 2025.
Main Points Sensory neurons depend on Schwann cells for survival. Schwann cells provide energy for axons dunng rapid firing or after injury. Dysregulated metabolism in Schwann cells can lead to the production of neurotoxic and axon degeneration. ABSTRACT Schwann cells are the glial cells in the peripheral nervous system responsible for the production ...

Differences in hepatic levels of intermediates in bile acid biosynthesis between Cyp27−/− mice and CTX

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
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

Serum plant sterols and biliary cholesterol secretion in humans

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
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.

Vegan diet and nutritional status in infants, children and adolescents: A position paper based on a systematic search by the ESPGHAN Nutrition Committee

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Volume 81, Issue 5, Page 1318-1345, November 2025.
Abstract Vegan and other plant‐based diets are becoming increasingly popular in the paediatric age group. There is limited evidence in the current medical literature to determine whether a vegan diet is adequate for children, since the currently available society position papers are based on narrative reviews and expert opinion.

The relationships of cholesterol metabolism and plasma plant sterols with the severity of coronary artery disease1s⃞

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
Changes in the balance of cholesterol absorption and synthesis and moderately elevated plasma plant sterols have been suggested to be atherogenic. Measuring cholestanol, lathosterol, campesterol, and sitosterol, we investigated the relationships of ...
