Cholesterol 25-hydroxylation activity of CYP3A
To date, many studies have been conducted using 25-hydroxycholesterol, which is a potent regulator of lipid metabolism. However, the origins of this oxysterol have not been entirely elucidated. Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase is one of the enzymes responsible

Marek’s disease virus (MDV) causes a deadly lymphoproliferative disease in chickens, resulting in huge economic losses in the poultry industry. It has been suggested that MDV suppresses the induction of type I interferons and thus escapes immune control.

Identification and characterization of the cholesterol 25‐hydroxylase gene promoter
25‐Hydroxycholesterol (25HC) is the product of the cholesterol 25‐hydroxylase (CH25H) gene, and is one of the most potent inhibitors of cholesterol synthesis, through the suppression of SREBP activation. 25HC has also been implicated in neurodegenerative disease and shown to be toxic to primary cultured ...

CHO cells expressing the liver-specific gene product cholesterol-7α-hydroxylase showed a 6-fold increase in the biosynthesis of [14C]cholesterol from [14C]acetate, as well as increased enzymatic activities of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutarylcoenzyme A (HMG-CoA)

Under most experimental conditions, the activities of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA reductase) and cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase, change together in parallel directions.

Dendritic cells (DC) present tumour antigens to T cells but this process is defective in the tumour microenvironment. Here the authors find that downregulation of cholesterol 25-hydroxylase underlies defective cross presentation of tumour antigens.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is currently the most prevalent metabolic disorder all over the world, and lipid metabolic disorders and inflammation are closely associated and contribute to the pathogenesis of NAFLD. Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase

Metformin Alleviates Steatohepatitis in Diet-Induced Obese Mice in a SIRT1-Dependent Way
Metformin is the first-line anti-diabetic drug for type 2 diabetes. It has been found to significantly reduce liver aminotransferase in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, whether metformin improves NAFLD progression remains controversial.

Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase production by dendritic cells and macrophages is regulated by type I interferons [PDF]
Abstract TLR-mediated induction of cholesterol 25-hydoxylase transcription in dendritic cells and macrophages is dependent on IFN-α/IFN-β and signaling through INF-αR and STAT1. The oxysterol-producing enzyme CH25H plays an important role in regulating lipid metabolism, gene expression, and immune activation.

25-Hydroxycholesterol-Induced Oxiapoptophagy in L929 Mouse Fibroblast Cell Line
25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) is an oxysterol synthesized from cholesterol by cholesterol-25-hydroxylase during cholesterol metabolism. The aim of this study was to verify whether 25-HC induces oxiapoptophagy in fibroblasts.
