Relevance of 24S-hydroxycholesterol as a biomarker of optic neuropathies
Purpose: 24S-Hydroxycholesterol is formed by enzymatic oxidation of cholesterol via cholesterol-24S-hydroxylase (CYP46A1) activity in neurons, including retinal ganglion cells and neurons from the inner retina.

Iso-octyl chain-hydroxylated oxysterols were determined in attomoles per 10,000 cells concentrations in 10,000–80,000 cultured pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, using a sensitive, highly automated nano-LC-ESI-MS-based method.

GPR183/EBI2 links oxysterol metabolism with immune‐cell positioning and macrophage function in tuberculosis. The 7α,25‐OHC‐GPR183 axis regulates macrophage trafficking, autophagy and type I interferon responses. GPR183 represents a potential immunometabolic target for host‐directed therapy against tuberculosis..

26-Hydroxycholesterol: synthesis, metabolism, and biologic activities
Cholest-5-ene-3 beta,26-diol (26-hydroxycholesterol) is synthesized by a mitochondrial P-450 enzyme that appears to be widely distributed in tissues. Together with other C-27 steroid intermediates it is transported to the liver and metabolized to bile ...

Bile acid metabolism and signaling in human and animal health: A One Health perspective
Bile acids maintain host homeostasis through enterohepatic circulation, microbial transformation, and bile acid receptor signaling, thereby regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, intestinal barrier integrity, and immunity. These effects support human disease intervention and health‐oriented animal production, reducing drug dependence and residue ...

Levels of the brain-specific cholesterol metabolite 24S-hydroxycholesterol are proposed as possible biomarkers for multiple sclerosis (MS). It is not yet clear for which aspect of the MS disease manifestations 24S-hydroxycholesterol is a reflection.

We have previously presented evidence that most of the 24S-hydroxycholesterol present in the circulation originates from the brain and that most of the elimination of this oxysterol occurs in the liver.

24S-hydroxycholesterol in cerebrospinal fluid is elevated in early stages of dementia
The brain is the most cholesterol-rich organ in the human body. Accumulation of excess cholesterol in hippocampal neurons promotes the cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) into amyloidogenic components with the consequence of the acceleration ...
