Tetraploid Wheats: Valuable Source of Phytosterols and Phytostanols

Agronomy, 2019
Phytosterols are known as healthy compounds obtained mainly from oilseed crops. Cereals were also studied for their sterols content. Few insights have been devoted to other tetraploid species than emmer and durum wheats.

The biosynthesis, absorption, and origin of cholesterol and plant sterols in the Florida land crab.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1981
In order to study the biosynthesis, composition, and origin of sterols in the Florida land crabs, Cardisoma guanhumi (Latreille), we fed 17 male crabs either a cholesterol-free or a high cholesterol diet for 2 to 7 weeks.

A dietary sterol trade-off determines lifespan responses to dietary restriction in Drosophila melanogaster females

eLife, 2021
Diet plays a significant role in maintaining lifelong health. In particular, lowering the dietary protein: carbohydrate ratio can improve lifespan. This has been interpreted as a direct effect of these macronutrients on physiology.

Sterols in the small intestine of the rat, guinea pig, and rabbit

Journal of Lipid Research, 1971
The sterol content and composition of the small intestinal mucosa has been studied in the rat, guinea pig, and rabbit. In the three species, noncholesterol sterols formed a large proportion of the total sterol content. In the rat, the contribution due to

Evolution of Extra Virgin Olive Oil Quality under Different Storage Conditions

Foods, 2021
The extent and conditions of storage may affect the stability and quality of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). This study aimed at evaluating the effects of different storage conditions (ambient, 4 °C and −18 °C temperatures, and argon headspace) on three ...

Sea cucumber derived sulfated sterols alter glucose metabolism by promoting gluconeogenesis and reducing glycogenesis in healthy mice

Food Science and Human Wellness
Sea cucumber derived sulfated sterols significantly ameliorated insulin resistance and decreased lipid accumulation compared to plant sterols. Interestingly, our recent study found that intervention with sea cucumber sulfated sterols could significantly ...

Inhibitors of sterol synthesis. Chromatography of acetate derivatives of oxygenated sterols.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
The separation of the acetate derivatives of a number of oxygenated sterols was achieved by medium pressure liquid chromatography on silica gel columns and by normal and reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography.

Sterols of skin in the normal and triparanol-treated rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1963
Skin of normal rats and of rats treated with triparanol were incubated with acetate-2-H3 for 2 hr, and the sterols were extracted and separated chromatographically.

Lipid-lowering Activity of Natural and Semi-Synthetic Sterols and Stanols

Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2015
Consumption of plant sterols/ stanols has long been demonstrated to reduce plasma cholesterol levels. The objective of this review is to demonstrate the lipid-lowering activity and anti-atherogenic effects of natural and semi-synthetic plant sterols ...

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...
