A method for rapid microsynthesis of radioactive cholesterol esters
A simple method for synthesizing esters of labeled cholesterol of high specific activity is described. The formation of acyl chlorides takes 10 min and they are reacted with labeled cholesterol to form the cholesterol esters in another 5 min. Yields were

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) is a microsomal enzyme required for the biosynthesis of oleate and palmitoleate, which are the major monounsaturated fatty acids of membrane phospholipids, triglycerides, and cholesterol esters.

Incorporation of labeled cholesterol esters into chylomicrons in vitro
Labeled cholesterol esters were incorporated into chylomicrons in vitro by adding an acetone solution of the cholesterol ester to a suspension of washed chylomicrons. The physical and metabolic properties of the added labeled ester were the same as those

Doxorubicin Affects Testicular Lipids with Long-Chain (C18-C22) and Very Long-Chain (C24-C32) Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids [PDF]
Doxorubicin disrupts spermatogenesis by causing apoptosis of spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of this agent on adult rat testicular lipids and their fatty acids.

Early steps in steroidogenesis: intracellular cholesterol trafficking
Steroid hormones are made from cholesterol, primarily derived from lipoproteins that enter cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis. In endo-lysosomes, cholesterol is released from cholesterol esters by lysosomal acid lipase (LAL; disordered in Wolman ...

Cholesterol esters of long-chain saturated fatty acids (C12 to C22), as well as those of the C18 unsaturated fatty acids (oleic, linoleic, and linolenic), were prepared by the ester interchange method, starting with cholesteryl acetate and the methyl ...

Oils and fats on food: is it possible to have a healthy diet? [PDF]
Oils and fats are an important part of our diet as components of many food formulations. Thus, they are retailed for domestic or hostelry uses and broadly used by food industry for the elaboration of margarines, ice cream, canned food, pre-cooked ...

A randomized double-blind study was made in 67 modestly hypercholesterolemic subjects by replacing 50 g of daily dietary fat by the same amount of a rapeseed oil preparation without and with fat-soluble sitostanol esters.

Breaking the Cycle, Cholesterol Cycling, and Synapse Damage in Response to Amyloid-ß [PDF]
Soluble amyloid-β (Aβ) oligomers, a key driver of pathogenesis in Alzheimer disease, bind to cellular prion proteins (PrPC) expressed on synaptosomes resulting in increased cholesterol concentrations, movement of cytoplasmic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) to ...

The influence of exogenous cholesterol on hepatic lipid composition of the rat*
Rats were fed diets containing cottonseed oil and/or cholesterol, cholic acid, methyl esters of long-chain fatty acids, and tocopherol. Livers, hearts, and aortas were examined histologically; liver lipids were fractionated by silicic acid chromatography;
