Neuroprotective effects of ursodeoxycholic acid in Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease
In Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), various shared pathological mechanisms exist. UDCA has been shown to exert neuroprotective effects in preclinical and clinical studies. Such effects include the mitigation of neuroinflammation as well as rescue effects on mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, impaired autophagy, and ...

Gene expression of hepatic cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase in the course of puromycin-induced nephrosis
Gene expression of hepatic cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase in the course of puromycin-induced nephrosis. Cholesterol conversion to and biliary excretion of bile acids represents the principal pathway of cholesterol catabolism in mammals.

Regulation of bile acid biosynthesis by hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) regulates many genes that are preferentially expressed in liver. Mice lacking hepatic expression of HNF4α (HNF4αΔL) exhibited markedly increased levels of serum bile acids (BAs) compared with HNF4α-floxed (HNF4αF/F ...

ABSTRACT Background Cell senescence (CS) and lipid metabolism (LM) disorders have been reported in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the mechanism is still unclear. Methods Data were obtained from public databases; differential expression analysis and machine learning were performed to identify biomarkers and to understand the

Fetal growth restriction is associated with placental metabolic adaptations. In small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta (SGA), cholesterol receptors and steroidogenic enzymes are upregulated, enhancing steroidogenesis. NAD salvage pathway is also increased to support NADP+/NADPH requirements.

Regulation of rat liver microsomal cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase by MgATP: Effect of pH
Cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase when assayed under conditions that favour phosphorylation can be activated or inactivated by MgATP, depending on ATP concentration and the pH of the incubation medium. Maximum stimulation of 7α-hydroxylase was obtained with 0.5

Different hepatocytes express the cholesterol 7Α-hydroxylase gene during its circadian modulation in vivo [PDF]
Cholesterol 7Α-hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in bile salt synthesis from cholesterol is a P450 enzyme (CYP7A). Its expression and activity are regulated by bile salts, cholesterol, hormones and a circadian modulator.

ABSTRACT Hearing impairment is attributed to factors such as age, genetic predisposition, and environmental influences, among which environmental factors are considered modifiable. Among various environmental factors, the role of poor lifestyle habits is particularly critical, yet the specific mechanisms by which they contribute to hearing damage ...
