2‐Hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin reduces retinal cholesterol in wild‐type and Cyp27a1−/−Cyp46a1−/− mice with deficiency in the oxysterol production

British Journal of Pharmacology, 2020
2‐Hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (HPCD) is an FDA approved vehicle for drug delivery and an efficient cholesterol‐lowering agent. HPCD was proposed to lower tissue cholesterol via multiple mechanisms including those mediated by oxysterols.

The Influence of Schwann Cell Metabolism and Dysfunction on Axon Maintenance

Glia, Volume 73, Issue 12, Page 2338-2352, December 2025.
Main Points Sensory neurons depend on Schwann cells for survival. Schwann cells provide energy for axons dunng rapid firing or after injury. Dysregulated metabolism in Schwann cells can lead to the production of neurotoxic and axon degeneration. ABSTRACT Schwann cells are the glial cells in the peripheral nervous system responsible for the production ...

Targeting mitochondrial 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) regulates macrophage cholesterol efflux and lipid phenotype [PDF]

, 2014
The aim of the present study was to establish mitochondrial cholesterol trafficking 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) as a potential therapeutic target, capable of increasing macrophage cholesterol efflux to (apo)lipoprotein acceptors.

A Network of SLC and ABC Transporter and DME Genes Involved in Remote Sensing and Signaling in the Gut-Liver-Kidney Axis. [PDF]

, 2019
Genes central to drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination (ADME) also regulate numerous endogenous molecules. The Remote Sensing and Signaling Hypothesis argues that an ADME gene-centered network-including SLC and ABC "drug" transporters,

Alcohol‐Related Liver Disease and Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease: Molecular Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Interventions

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
Alcohol‐related (ALD) and metabolic dysfunction‐associated (MASLD) steatotic liver disease, while initiated by distinct etiologies (ethanol vs. metabolic stress), converge on shared core pathogenic pathways that drive progression. These include dysregulated lipid metabolism, programmed cell death, cellular senescence, gut dysbiosis, and immune ...

N,N-Dimethyl-3β-hydroxycholenamide Reduces Retinal Cholesterol via Partial Inhibition of Retinal Cholesterol Biosynthesis Rather Than its Liver X Receptor Transcriptional Activity

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
N,N-dimethyl-3β-hydroxycholenamide (DMHCA) is an experimental pharmaceutical and a steroidal liver X receptor (LXR) agonist, which does not induce undesired hepatic lipogenesis.

Downregulation of Cyp7a1 by Cholic Acid and Chenodeoxycholic Acid in Cyp27a1/ApoE Double Knockout Mice: Differential Cardiovascular Outcome

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) is a key enzyme in bile acids (BAs) biosynthesis and a regulator of cholesterol metabolism. Cyp27a1/Apolipoprotein E double knockout (DKO) mice fed with western diet (WD) are protected from atherosclerosis via up ...

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) patient's fibroblasts carrying a R395S mutation

Stem Cell Research, 2016
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were generated from dermal fibroblasts from a 60-year-old cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) patient, carrying a homozygous mutation c. [1183C>A]; p. R395S in CYP27A1.
