Biological variation of β-sitosterol, campesterol, and lathosterol as cholesterol absorption and synthesis biomarkers

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2014
The analysis of blood for β-sitosterol and campesterol is the measures of cholesterol absorption while lathosterol is a measure of cholesterol synthesis.The biological variability of β-sitosterol, campesterol, and lathosterol was measured using liquid-chromatography tandem mass spectrometry from a cohort of 25 apparently healthy subjects, where blood ...

Ratio of lathosterol to campesterol in serum predicts the cholesterol-lowering effect of sitostanol-supplemented margarine

Int. Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2005
Plant sterol/stanol margarines are recommended as a lipid-lowering dietary supplement in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Parameters predicting the individual cholesterol-lowering effect have not been elucidated so far. Therefore, we investigated the responsiveness to sitostanol-supplemented margarine in a specially selected population.From a ...

Simultaneous determination of serum lathosterol and cholesterol by semi-micro high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection

Journal of Chromatography B, 2011
A simple method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of lathosterol and cholesterol by high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC-ECD). Lathosterol was found to be electrochemically oxidized and its current peak height was linearly related to the amount of lathosterol injected, ranging from 0.15 μmol/L ...

A Calorimetric and Spectroscopic Comparison of the Effects of Lathosterol and Cholesterol on the Thermotropic Phase Behavior and Organization of Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine Bilayer Membranes

Biochemistry, 2011
We performed differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic measurements to study the effects of lathosterol (Lath) on the thermotropic phase behavior and organization of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) bilayer membranes and compared our results with those previously reported for cholesterol (Chol ...

[Radiation-induced changes in the content of squalene, lathosterol and cholesterol in rat blood proteins].

Radiobiologiia, 1991
Normal and irradiated fibrinogen, gamma-globulins, alpha- and beta-globulins and albumins of blood plasma were shown to contain squalene, lathosterol, cholesterol and some other compounds as lipid components. Radiation alteration of the total number of unsaponifiable substances and some lipid components in the individual blood plasma proteins followed ...

Response of plasma lathosterol concentration to change in the quality of dietary fat in men and women.

European journal of clinical nutrition, 1996
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of replacing saturated fatty acids (SAFA) with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in the diet on plasma lathosterol concentration, an index of cholesterol synthesis, in mildly hypercholesterolaemic subjects.The study was a randomised, cross-over trial.Seventy-six subjects were recruited and one dropped ...

Partial purification and characterization of lathosterol 5-desaturase from rat liver microsomes.

Journal of biochemistry, 1985
The terminal oxidase of the NADH-dependent lathosterol 5-desaturation system was solubilized from rat liver microsomes with 2% Triton X-100, and partially purified approximately 18-fold with 19% yield after DEAE-cellulose and 6-aminohexyl-Sepharose column chromatography.

Biosynthesis of 20-hydroxyecdysone in Ajuga hairy roots: fate of 6alpha- and 6beta-hydrogens of lathosterol.

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry, 2000
The fate of 6alpha- and 6beta-hydrogens of lathosterol during the transformation into 20-hydroxyecdysone was chased by feeding [3alpha,6beta-2H2]- and [3alpha,6alpha-2H2]-lathosterols to hairy roots of Ajuga reptans var. atropurpurea. The behavior of 6beta-hydrogen, which mostly migrated to the C-5 position of 20-hydroxyecdysone, was in agreement with ...
