Comprehensive prognostic and immune analysis of sterol O-acyltransferase 1 in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. [PDF]

World J Hepatol
BACKGROUND Sterol O-acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1) is an important target in the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer. However, the prognostic value of SOAT1 in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still not clear.

Sterol O-Acyltransferase 1 (<i>SOAT1</i>): A Genetic Modifier of Niemann-Pick Disease, Type C1. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Niemann-Pick disease type C1 (NPC1) is a lysosomal disorder due to impaired intracellular cholesterol transport out of the endolysosomal compartment.. Marked heterogeneity has been observed in individuals with the same NPC1 genotype, thus suggesting a ...

Sterol-O-acyltransferase-1 has a role in kidney disease associated with diabetes and Alport syndrome. [PDF]

Kidney Int, 2020
Defective cholesterol metabolism primarily linked to reduced ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) expression is closely associated with the pathogenesis and progression of kidney diseases, including diabetic kidney disease and Alport Syndrome.

Characterization of thraustochytrid-specific sterol O-acyltransferase: modification of DGAT2-like enzyme to increase the sterol production in Aurantiochytrium limacinum mh0186. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol, 2023
Thraustochytrids are marine microorganisms expected to produce useful lipids. They synthesize polyunsaturated fatty acids and sterols and store them in lipid droplets as a form of triacylglycerol (TG) and sterol ester (SE), respectively.

Sterol O-Acyltransferase Inhibition Ameliorates High-Fat Diet-Induced Renal Fibrosis and Tertiary Lymphoid Tissue Maturation after Ischemic Reperfusion Injury. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2022
Metabolic syndrome is associated with the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We previously demonstrated that aged kidneys are prone to developing tertiary lymphoid tissues (TLTs) and sustain inflammation after injury, leading to CKD progression;

Sterol O-Acyltransferase 2-Driven Cholesterol Esterification Opposes Liver X Receptor-Stimulated Fecal Neutral Sterol Loss. [PDF]

Lipids, 2016
AbstractStatin drugs have proven a successful and relatively safe therapy for the treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, even with the substantial low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol lowering achieved with statin treatment, CVD remains the top cause of death in developed countries.

Inhibition mechanism of human sterol O-acyltransferase 1 by competitive inhibitor [PDF]

bioRxiv, 2020
Sterol O-acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident, multi-transmembrane enzyme that belongs to the membrane-bound O-acyltransferase (MBOAT) family 1.

Niemann-Pick C1-deficient mice lacking sterol O-acyltransferase 2 have less hepatic cholesterol entrapment and improved liver function. [PDF]

Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol, 2018
Cholesteryl esters are generated at multiple sites in the body by sterol O-acyltransferase (SOAT) 1 or SOAT2 in various cell types and lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase in plasma.

Sterol O-acyltransferase (SOAT/ACAT) activity is required to form cholesterol crystals in hepatocyte lipid droplets [PDF]

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids
Objective Excess unesterified (free) cholesterol can induce formation of cholesterol crystals in hepatocyte lipid droplets. Presence of such crystal distinguishes metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASH) from simple steatosis and may ...

Sterol O-Acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1, ACAT) Is a Novel Target of Steroidogenic Factor-1 (SF-1, NR5A1, Ad4BP) in the Human Adrenal [PDF]

Endocrine Reviews, 2011
Context: Steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1, NR5A1, Ad4BP) is a master regulator of adrenal development and steroidogenesis. Defects in several known targets of SF-1 can cause adrenal disorders in humans.Objective: We aimed to identify novel targets of SF-1 in
