Clinical and Genetic Characteristics of Splicing Variant in CYP27A1 in an Iranian Family with Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis [PDF]

open access: diamondIranian Biomedical Journal, 2021
Background Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare congenital lipid-storage disorder, leading to a progressive multisystem disease. CTX with autosomal recessive inheritance is caused by a defect in the CYP27A1 gene.

c.1263+1G>A Is a Latent Hotspot for CYP27A1 Mutations in Chinese Patients With Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
BackgroundCerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is an autosomal recessive disorder of bile acid synthesis caused by mutations in the CYP27A1 gene. CTX is an underdiagnosed and potentially treatable disease, thus a detailed appreciation of the phenotypic ...

Circulating 27-hydroxycholesterol and breast cancer tissue expression of CYP27A1, CYP7B1, LXR-β, and ERβ: results from the EPIC-Heidelberg cohort

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research, 2020
Background Experimental and epidemiological studies demonstrate a role for 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC) in breast cancer development, though results are conflicting. Cholesterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) and oxysterol 7-alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7B1) regulate
