Expression and purification of human cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase in Escherichia coli.
Cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (P450c7) is the first and rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis and is the product of a cytochrome P450 gene, CYP7.

Hormonal regulation of the cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase gene (CYP7)
The transcriptional regulation of the rat cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase gene (CYP7) by hormones and signal transduction pathways was studied by transient transfection assay of the promoter activity. HepG2 cells were transfected with deletion mutants of

Endotoxin, TNF, and IL-1 decrease cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase mRNA levels and activity.
Endotoxin (LPS) and cytokines increase cholesterol synthesis and the secretion of lipoproteins by the liver in rodents resulting in hypercholesterolemia.

Compared to BALB/c mice, inbred C57BL/6 mice are more susceptible to developing fatty streak atherosclerotic lesions when fed a cholesterol-rich diet containing taurocholate. We examined the metabolic basis for the taurocholate requirement.

Cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (cyp7) is the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis. Previously, dietary cholesterol was shown to induce cyp7 gene expression. However, recent studies have produced data that are inconsistent with this observation,

Oxysterol 7α-Hydroxylase Activity by Cholesterol 7α-Hydroxylase (CYP7A) [PDF]
A 7 alpha-hydroxylation is necessary for conversion of both cholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol into bile acids. According to current theories, cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A) is responsible for the former and oxysterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7B) for the latter reaction.
