Non-Coding RNAs as Critical Modulators of Cholesterol Metabolism in Cancer [PDF]
Cholesterol metabolism reprogramming helps tumor cells meet their high energy and biosynthetic needs. Many studies link high cholesterol levels to a higher risk of cancers, such as breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer.

27-Hydroxylation of oncosterone by CYP27A1 switches its activity from pro-tumor to anti-tumor
Oncosterone (6-oxo-cholestane-3β,5α-diol; OCDO) is an oncometabolite and a tumor promoter on estrogen receptor alpha-positive breast cancer (ER(+) BC) and triple-negative breast cancers (TN BC). OCDO is an oxysterol formed in three steps from cholesterol:

Localization of sterols and oxysterols in mouse brain reveals distinct spatial cholesterol metabolism [PDF]
Dysregulated cholesterol metabolism is implicated in a number of neurological disorders. Many sterols, including cholesterol and its precursors and metabolites, are biologically active and important for proper brain function. However, spatial cholesterol
