The aim of this study was to determine the impact of diabetic macrosomia on cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism. Age-related changes in the activities of serum LCAT, hepatic HMG-CoA reductase, cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase, and ACAT, the major enzymes ...

Abstract Background Phenylbutazone (PBZ) can potentially induce gastrointestinal ulceration, and early detection of PBZ‐induced gastroenteropathy will be useful for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of PBZ toxicity. Objectives To identify putative proteins associated with equine gastric ulcer syndrome after clinical dose (4.4 mg/kg ...

Abstract Background Elevated low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol causes atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. Variables of whole‐body cholesterol metabolism, for example, high cholesterol absorption efficiency, might also be atherogenic, whereas the role of bile acids is controversial.

The liver-enriched transcription factor DBP is expressed with a stringent circadian rhythm. We present evidence that DBP is a regulator of the circadian expression of the rat gene encoding cholesterol 7α hydroxylase (C7αH), the rate-limiting enzyme in ...

The Regulatory Role of Iron Transporter SLC39A13 in Liver Fibrosis
SLC39A13/ZIP13, a newly discovered intracellular iron transporter, delivers iron to the ER/Golgi to catalyze procollagen hydroxylation during collagen maturation. Here, we systematically characterize the cell type‐specific functions of ZIP13 across distinct hepatic cell populations, and identify hepatic stellate cell‐specific ZIP13 as a promising and ...

On the substrate specificity of human CYP27A1
The mitochondrial sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) is required for degradation of the C27-sterol side chain in bile acid biosynthesis. CYP27A1 seems, however, to have roles beyond this, as illustrated by patients with a deficient sterol 27-hydroxylase due

Genomic Insights Into Carnivorous Fish in the Characiformes
This study employed comparative genomic approaches using 12 high‐quality Characiformes genomes (covering nine subfamilies) with zebrafish as an outgroup to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the carnivorous adaptation of Characiformes. Expanded gene families, positively selected genes, and rapidly evolving genes in carnivorous species were ...

Removal of the bile acid pool upregulates cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase by deactivating FXR in rabbits
We investigated the role of the orphan nuclear receptor farnesoid X receptor (FXR) in the regulation of cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1), using an in vivo rabbit model, in which the bile acid pool, which includes high affinity ligands for FXR, was ...

Mitochondrial sterol 27-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.15) is an important enzyme, not only in the formation of bile acids from cholesterol intermediates in the liver but also in the removal of cholesterol by side chain hydroxylation in extrahepatic tissues ...
