Inverse relationship between plasma cholestanol concentrations and bile acid synthesis in sitosterolemia

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1994
We investigated the relationship between plasma cholestanol (5 alpha-dihydrocholesterol) concentrations and the activity and mRNA levels of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase, the rate-controlling enzyme for bile acid synthesis, in three female ...

Regulation of bile acid synthesis. IV. Interrelationship between cholesterol and bile acid biosynthesis pathways.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
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.

Regulation of bile acid synthesis. Measurement of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase activity in rat liver microsomal preparations in the absence of endogenous cholesterol

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1981
A rapid procedure was developed to measure hepatic cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase activity in the absence of endogenous microsomal cholesterol. This method involves the preparation of an acetone powder from the microsomal fraction of rat liver that ...

Regulation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase in the liver. Cloning, sequencing, and regulation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase mRNA.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1990
Monospecific antibody against purified rat liver cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase cytochrome P-450 was used to screen a lambda gt11 cDNA library constructed from immuno-enriched polysomal RNA of cholestyramine-treated female rat liver. Two types of cDNA clones differing in the length of the 3'-untranslated region were identified, and DNA sequences were ...

Dietary cholesterol and downregulation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase and cholesterol absorption in African green monkeys. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1994
In this study, hepatic production of bile acid was considered together with intestinal cholesterol absorption as potential regulatory sites responsive to dietary cholesterol. Sequential liver biopsies were taken from 45 feral African green monkeys studied during three different diet periods.

Deletion of hepatic small heterodimer partner ameliorates development of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2023
Small heterodimer partner (SHP, Nr0b2) is an orphan nuclear receptor that regulates bile acid, lipid, and glucose metabolism. Shp−/− mice are resistant to diet-induced obesity and hepatic steatosis. In this study, we explored the potential role of SHP in

Studies on the link between HMG-CoA reductase and cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase in rat liver.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1988
Under most experimental conditions, there is a covariation between the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, HMG-CoA reductase, and the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis, cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase.

Regulation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase in the liver. Purification of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase and the immunochemical evidence for the induction of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase by cholestyramine and circadian rhythm.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1990
Two cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase isozymes were purified from liver microsomes of cholestyramine-treated female rats by using anion exchange high performance liquid chromatography. These two cytochrome P-450 isozymes were similar in electrophoretic mobility, immunocross-reactivity, and Vmax but differed in Km for cholesterol, turnover number, and ...

Regulation of rat liver microsomal cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase: reversible inactivation by ATP + Mg2+ and a cytosolic activator.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1981
Modulation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase catalytic activity by adenine nucleotides was studied in rat liver microsomal preparations. Inactivation of cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase showed specific requirements of ATP and ADP. AMP and cyclic AMP were

7 alpha-hydroxylation of 27-hydroxycholesterol: biologic role in the regulation of cholesterol synthesis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
The report of a novel cytochrome P450 enzyme in mouse hippocampus (cyp7b) with close homology to cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase led us to determine the substrate specificity with respect to 27-hydroxycholesterol, known to be a potent inhibitor of ...
