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 ...

Influence of the sebaceous gland density on the stratum corneum lipidome [PDF]
The skin surface lipids (SSL) result from the blending of sebaceous and epidermal lipids, which derive from the sebaceous gland (SG) secretion and the permeability barrier of the stratum corneum (SC), respectively.

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.

Chromosomal location of a gene that controls sterol esterification in Triticum aestivum L. [PDF]
A previously described D genome locus (Pln) that controls sterol esterification in the wheat kernel has been assigned to the short arm of chromosome 7 D by comparison of the steryl ester phenotype of euploid kernels of Triticum aestivum variety Chinese ...

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;

Clinical outcome of a patient with lysosomal acid lipase deficiency and first results after initiation of treatment with Sebelipase alfa: A case report [PDF]
We report on a case of very rare autosomal recessive cholesteryl ester storage disease due to lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LALD). LALD is caused by mutations in the lysosomal acid lipase A (LIPA) gene resulting in cholesteryl ester accumulation in

The formation and consequences of cholesterol-rich deposits in atherosclerotic lesions
Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death throughout the world. Accumulation of lipoprotein-associated lipids and their interaction with macrophages are early steps in the development of atherosclerotic lesions.

In vitro incorporation of cholesterol-14C in to very low density lipoprotein cholesteryl esters
The cholesteryl esters of very low density lipoproteins become labeled when human plasma is incubated with cholesterol-14C. The relative order of magnitude of the specific activity of the cholesteryl esters of the major lipoprotein fractions is: high ...
