Solubility of Desmosterol in Five Organic Solvents
Journal of Chemical & Engineering Data, 2008The solubilities of desmosterol in methanol, ethanol, acetone, ethyl acetate, and acetonitrile were measured. The solubilities of desmosterol in these solvents increased with temperature and varied greatly with the solvent from a minimum of 0.1151 mol·L−1 in acetonitrile at 300.8 K to a maximum of 1.102 mol·L−1 in ethyl acetate at 332.8 K.

Desmosterol in Human and Experimental Brain Tumors in Tissue Culture
Archives of Neurology, 1976Desmosterol, a possible chemical indicator of brain tumors, was detected in cells of neurogenic, nitrosourea-induced rat tumors (neurinomas and gliomas, C6 cell line) and in human astrocytomas grown in lipid-poor media. A further increase in the amount of cell desmosterol was obtained when triparanol was added to media containing delipidized serum ...

Desmosterol, an intermediate in dealkylation of β-sitosterol in the tobacco hornworm
Life Sciences, 1967The mechanism of dealkylation of phytosterols such as β-sitosterol to cholesterol in insects is an important and little understood biochemical transformation. This alteration of the sterol side chain provides a means for omnivorous and particularly phytophagous insects to obtain their essential cholesterol from foodstuffs that are either very low or ...

Efflux and plasma transport of biosynthetic desmosterol
Previous work shows that the efflux of biosynthetic desmosterol from cells is three times more efficient than that of cholesterol. We wanted to determine the mechanism of this enhanced release. We labeled CHO-K1 cells with (3H) acetate precursor and measured sterols in the whole cells, plasma membranes and caveolae, and those released to high density ...Jane Ellen Phillips, William J.
