Targeting Brain Cholesterol Homeostasis in Alzheimer's Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Neurochem
Brain cholesterol homeostasis is tightly regulated and largely independent of peripheral cholesterol. This review proposes a unifying framework in which aging, sex, and related biological stressors, including hypercholesterolemia, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and oxidative stress, converge to disrupt cholesterol homeostasis in the brain ...

Genomics and proteomics of vertebrate cholesterol ester lipase (LIPA) and cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) [PDF]

open access: yes3 Biotech, 2011
Cholesterol ester lipase (LIPA; EC 3.1.1.13) and cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H; EC 1.14.99.48) play essential role in cholesterol metabolism in the body by hydrolysing cholesteryl esters and triglycerides within lysosomes (LIPA) and catalysing the formation of 25-hydroxycholesterol from cholesterol (CH25H) which acts to repress cholesterol ...

SCAP deficiency facilitates obesity and insulin resistance through shifting adipose tissue macrophage polarization

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2023
Introduction: Sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP) cleavage-associating protein (SCAP) is a sterol-regulated escort protein that translocates SREBPs from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus, thereby activating lipid metabolism ...

Cholesterol 25-Hydroxylase on Chromosome 10q Is a Susceptibility Gene for Sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]

open access: yesNeurodegenerative Diseases, 2005
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. It is characterized by β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques, neurofibrillary tangles and the degeneration of specifically vulnerable brain neurons. We observed high expression of the cholesterol 25-hydroxylase <i>(CH25H)</i> gene in specifically vulnerable brain regions of AD patients.

Highly automated nano-LC/MS-based approach for thousand cell-scale quantification of side chain-hydroxylated oxysterols[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2014
Iso-octyl chain-hydroxylated oxysterols were determined in attomoles per 10,000 cells concentrations in 10,000–80,000 cultured pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, using a sensitive, highly automated nano-LC-ESI-MS-based method.

Hepatic cholesterol metabolism in normo- and hyperlipidemic patients with cholesterol gallstones.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1979
In vivo studies have shown abnormalities in cholesterol and bile acid metabolism in primary hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP). The aim of the present investigation was to determine if the increased production of cholesterol in HLP type IV can be attributed to a

Repression of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase transcription by bile acids is mediated through protein kinase C in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
Inhibitors of protein kinases were screened for the ability to prevent the repression of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase mRNA by taurocholate in primary cultures of adult rat hepatocytes.

Activation of liver X receptor plays a central role in antiviral actions of 25-hydroxycholesterol

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2018
Production of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC), a potent inhibitor of viral infection, is catalyzed by cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H). We previously reported that 25HC induced CH25H expression in a liver X receptor (LXR)-dependent manner, implying that ...

Regulation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase expression by sterols in primary rat hepatocyte cultures.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
The importance of cholesterol and “oxysterols” in the regulation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase is not clear. Previous in vivo studies suggest that cholesterol may up-regulate cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid ...
