Cholesterol is a molecule with a double bond in its structure, and therefore it is susceptible to oxidation leading to the formation of oxysterols. These oxidation products are found in many commonly consumed foods and are formed during their manufacture

Pharmacokinetic profiling of imatinib in relation to CYP3A4 activity in leukaemia patients
Aim Imatinib pharmacokinetics exhibit large interindividual variability because of differences in CYP3A4 activity—the main imatinib‐metabolizing enzyme. While therapeutic drug monitoring is effective, it requires steady‐state conditions and frequent sampling.

Detecting oxysterols in the human circulation
Oxysterols are oxygenated metabolites of cholesterol. On the basis of in vitro experiments, oxysterols have been ascribed many regulatory roles in connection with inflammation, neurodegeneration and atherosclerosis.

A quantitative LC-MS/MS method for analysis of mitochondrial -specific oxysterol metabolism
Oxysterols are critical regulators of inflammation and cholesterol metabolism in cells. They are oxidation products of cholesterol and may be differentially metabolised in subcellular compartments and in biological fluids.

CH25H deficiency permits optimal dendritic cell activation following BCG exposure, characterized by increased IL‐12p70 production. In vivo, CH25H deficiency promotes enhanced BCG‐mediated protection and sustained IL‐2 producing T cell response. ABSTRACT Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG) remains the only licensed vaccine for tuberculosis (TB), yet its ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

The production of oxysterols in bile by activated human leukocytes
Oxysterols are naturally occurring intermediates in the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids, the major route for elimination of cholesterol. Additionally, they are important signaling agents, particularly in control of cholesterol synthesis; however,

Involvement of 27-Hydroxycholesterol in Mitotane Action on Adrenocortical Carcinoma
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare cancer with poor prognosis. Mitotane, the standard treatment for ACC, impairs adrenocortical steroid biosynthesis and cholesterol metabolism.
