Tumor-Suppressive and Immune-Stimulating Roles of Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase in Pancreatic Cancer Cells. [PDF]
Abstract Cholesterol dependence is an essential characteristic of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) catalyzes monooxygenation of cholesterol into 25-hydroxycholesterol, which is implicated in inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis and in cholesterol ...

Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase mediates neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in a mouse model of tauopathy. [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, in addition to neuroinflammation and changes in brain lipid metabolism. 25-Hydroxycholesterol (25-HC), a known modulator of both inflammation and lipid metabolism, is produced by cholesterol 25-hydroxylase encoded by Ch25h expressed as a “disease-associated ...

Silencing of Cholesterol 25-Hydroxylase Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Cardiomyocyte Damage In Vitro. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The underlying mechanisms of sepsis‐induced myocardial dysfunction (SIMD) remain elusive, and no targeted therapies currently exist. This study aimed to explore the expression features and functional effects of cholesterol 25‐hydroxylase (CH25H) in SIMD in vitro.

Pathogenic mycobacterium upregulates cholesterol 25-hydroxylase to promote granuloma development via foam cell formation [PDF]
Summary: Pathogenic mycobacteria orchestrate the complex cell populations known as granuloma that is the hallmark of tuberculosis. Foam cells, a lipid-rich cell-type, are considered critical for granuloma formation; however, the causative factor in foam ...

Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase negatively regulates porcine intestinal coronavirus replication by the production of 25-hydroxycholesterol. [PDF]
Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) has been shown lately to be a host restriction factor that encodes an enzyme, which catalyzes the oxidized form of cholesterol to 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC). A series of studies have shown that 25HC activity in hosts plays a vital role in inhibiting viral infection. In this study, we explored the antiviral effect of

Fish Cholesterol 25-Hydroxylase Inhibits Virus Replication via Regulating Interferon Immune Response or Affecting Virus Entry [PDF]
Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) is an interferon (IFN)-induced gene that catalyzes the oxidation of cholesterol to 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC), which exerts broad-spectrum antiviral function.

Interferon-inducible cholesterol-25-hydroxylase broadly inhibits viral entry by production of 25-hydroxycholesterol. [PDF]
Interferons (IFN) are essential antiviral cytokines that establish the cellular antiviral state through upregulation of hundreds of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), most of which have uncharacterized functions and mechanisms. We identified Cholesterol-25-hydroxylase (Ch25h) as an antiviral ISG that can convert cholesterol to a soluble antiviral ...

CYP46A1-Targeted Treatment Alleviates Long-Term White Matter Injury Following Traumatic Brain Injury by Promoting Cholesterol Metabolic Clearance and Remyelination. [PDF]
Our findings demonstrate that CYP46A1 plays a critical role in regulating cholesterol homeostasis in microglia and that the targeting of CYP46A1 may offer a viable therapeutic approach for traumatic brain injury (TBI). The CYP46A1 activator Efavirenz reduces white matter damage by increasing the levels of the cholesterol metabolite 24OHC, thereby ...
