Lipids play essential roles in the hepatitis C virus (HCV) life cycle and patients with chronic HCV infection display disordered lipid metabolism which resolves following successful anti-viral therapy.

The disruption of a cluster of three snoRNAs in the epithelium of the gut deregulates the lipid and sterol (including the cholesterol) homeostasis. At the whole‐organism level, this chronic deregulation, all along life, decreases lifespan and leads to neurodegenerative lesions in old flies.

Inheritance of cholesterol metabolism of probands with high or low cholesterol absorption
Heredity of cholesterol absorption and synthesis was studied in siblings of hypercholesterolemic probands with low and high serum cholestanol to cholesterol ratio (assumed to indicate low and high absorption of cholesterol, respectively).

Lathosterolosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of cholesterol biosynthesis. It is caused by defects in the SC5D (sterol C5‐desaturase) gene which encodes for the 3‐beta‐hydroxysteroid‐delta‐5‐desaturase (also called sterol‐C5‐desaturase or ...

ABSTRACT Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are toxic cholesterol‐derived secondary metabolites present in several Solanaceae species. In potato, tuber SGA levels are for reasons of toxicity of concern in both table and starch cultivars. In the latter, SGAs bind to proteins and fibres in starch production side‐streams and prevent their further uses as ...

Abstract Background and Aims In dialysis patients, cholesterol-lowering therapy with statins is less effective than in other high-risk patients. This may partly be explained by a shift from cholesterol synthesis, which is inhibited by statin treatment, towards cholesterol absorption, which is ...

NUDT21 is overexpressed in colorectal cancer tumors and promotes colorectal cancer progression. NUDT21 promotes the production of a cyclin‐dependent kinase 19 (CDK19) mRNA isoform with a long 3′ UTR, which enhances cytoplasmic export and translation. Truncation of the CDK19 long 3′ UTR phenocopies NUDT21 loss, recapitulating the defects in cholesterol ...

We measured plasma markers of cholesterol synthesis (lathosterol) and absorption (campesterol, sitosterol, and cholestanol) in order to compare the effects of maximal doses of rosuvastatin with atorvastatin and investigate the basis for the significant ...
