Hyperabsorption and retention of campestanol in a sitosterolemic homozygote: comparison with her mother and three control subjects

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2000
We measured the percent absorption, turnover, and distribution of campestanol (24-methyl-5α-cholestan-3β-ol) in a sitosterolemic homozygote, her obligate heterozygous mother, and three healthy human control subjects.

Besnoitia besnoiti infection alters both endogenous cholesterol de novo synthesis and exogenous LDL uptake in host endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Besnoitia besnoiti, an apicomplexan parasite of cattle being considered as emergent in Europe, replicates fast in host endothelial cells during acute infection and is in considerable need for energy, lipids and other building blocks for offspring ...

Serum plant sterols and biliary cholesterol secretion in humans

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2002
Ratios of cholestanol, campesterol, and sitosterol to cholesterol in serum are known to reflect cholesterol absorption efficiency. Here, a possible link between these ratios and biliary secretion rates of cholesterol was investigated.

High dietary intake of phytosterol esters decreases carotenoids and increases plasma plant sterol levels with no additional cholesterol lowering

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2004
The objective of this study was to measure the effects on serum lipids and plasma phytosterols of 6.6 g/day phytosterols from three foods (bread, breakfast cereal, and spread) consumed for 12 weeks compared with a diet that was not enriched with ...

Inhibition of cholesterol absorption by the combination of dietary plant sterols and ezetimibe

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
Consumption of plant sterols and treatment with ezetimibe both reduce cholesterol absorption in the intestine. However, the mechanism of action differs between the two treatments, and the consequences of combination treatment are unknown.

Diatoms synthesize sterols by inclusion of animal and fungal genes in the plant pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Diatoms are ubiquitous microalgae that have developed remarkable metabolic plasticity and gene diversification. Here we report the first elucidation of the complete biosynthesis of sterols in the lineage.
