A New Route to 7-Dehydrocholesterol, Provitamin D3 [PDF]
IN 1935, Windaus, Lettre and Schenck1 described the preparation from cholesterol (I) of 7-dehydrocholesterol (III), which on irradiation gave a highly antirachitic product (vitamin D3), later2 shown to be identical with the naturally occurring vitamin D isolated from tunny liver oil.

7-Dehydrocholesterol is an endogenous suppressor of ferroptosis [PDF]
Abstract Ferroptosis is a form of cell death that has received considerable attention not only as a means to eradicate defined tumour entities but also because it provides unforeseen insights into the metabolic adaptation exploited by tumours to counteract phospholipid oxidation.

Localization and biosynthesis of 7-dehydrocholesterol in rat skin
By differential assay, the concentration of 7-dehydrocholesterol in the dead keratin layer, the epidermal mucosa, the sebaceous glands and associated appendages of the epidermis, and the dermis of rat skin was determined; 85% of the 7-dehydrocholesterol was isolated from slices of skin that contained surface keratin and sebaceous glands.Slices of skin ...

This study reveals a novel GC therapy targeting cholesterol homeostasis. Inhibiting the SCAP sterol‐sensing domain causes lethal ER stress via cholesterol accumulation, paradoxically forcing continuous synthesis that triggers ferroptosis. The findings link sterol sensing, metabolic dysregulation, and ferroptosis, establishing an anti‐cancer paradigm ...

Expanded Phenotype Associated With an Intronic PPP1R12A Variant: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Autosomal dominant PPP1R12A‐related genitourinary and/or brain malformation syndrome is a recently described multisystem disorder caused by loss‐of‐function variants in the protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 12a (PPP1R12A) gene. To date, 22 affected individuals have been reported with variable brain malformations and genitourinary ...

Harnessing ferroptosis from multilayer defense networks to nanoplatforms for specific cancer therapy
Nanomaterials target metabolically‐regulated ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Iron‐based or alternative nanoplatforms integrate ferroptosis with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. They enable stimulus‐responsive therapies (photothermal, photodynamic, sonodynamic) activated by near‐infrared, light, or ultrasound, achieving potent synergistic ...

TGF‐β signaling regulates extracellular vesicle (EV) release in cancer cells by modulating the expression and activity of genes associated with EV biogenesis. The TGF‐β‐induced upregulation of RAB4A expression facilitates fast endosomal recycling, a process that limits the fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane and EV secretion. Hence,

Relationship between vitamin D deficiency and early implant failure and osseointegration
Abstract Background This systematic review investigated the relationship between pre‐operative vitamin D levels and implant osseointegration and implant‐related outcomes. It also assessed studies involving vitamin D supplementation before implant placement.
