Phospholipids, Sphingolipids, and Cholesterol-Derived Lipid Mediators and Their Role in Neurological Disorders. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
Neural membranes are composed of phospholipids, sphingolipids, cholesterol, and proteins. In response to cell stimulation or injury, the metabolism of lipids generates various lipid mediators, which perform many cellular functions.

7-Hydroperoxycholesterol and its products in oxidized low density lipoprotein and human atherosclerotic plaque

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
7-Hydroperoxycholesterols (7OOHs) are intermediates in cholesterol oxidation and potential cytotoxins. A normal-phase HPLC method with UV (205 nm) detection was developed that could resolve 7 alpha OOH, 7 beta OOH, 7-ketocholesterol (7K), and the ...

25-Hydroxycholesterol as a Signaling Molecule of the Nervous System

open access: yesBiochemistry (Moscow), 2022
Cholesterol is an essential component of plasma membrane and precursor of biological active compounds, including hydroxycholesterols (HCs). HCs regulate cellular homeostasis of cholesterol; they can pass across the membrane and vascular barriers and act ...

The Impact of Brain Cholesterol (24-hydroxycholesterol (24-HC) and 27- hydroxycholesterol (27-HC)) on Invitro Phenotypes of Brain Metastatic Breast Cancer Cells [PDF]

open access: yes
Introduction: Brain metastases is one of the leading causes of breast cancer mortality and rates continue to increase. It has been previously shown that cholesterol metabolism is an important regulator of cancer progression.

Oxysterols in the brain of the cholesterol 24-hydroxylase knockout mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Oxysterols are oxidised forms of cholesterol or its precursors. In this study we utilised the cholesterol 24-hydroxylase knockout mouse (Cyp46a1-/-) to study the sterol and oxysterol content of brain.

NCOA4 Accelerates Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Formation by Regulating Macrophage Activation and Ferroptosis via STAT1–CH25H Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Under pathological stimulation, NCOA4 in macrophages interacts with STAT1 to promote CH25H transcription. The subsequent increase in 25‐HC production activates macrophages, triggers inflammatory responses and ferroptosis, and accelerates the progression of AAA.
