Stigmasterol Alleviates Cutaneous Allergic Responses in Rodents [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2018
The therapeutic potential of stigmasterol, a natural steroid alcohol with established immune-modulatory properties, was assessed on allergic cutaneous responses. We examined its suppressive effect on immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated active cutaneous anaphylaxis (ACA), compound 48/80 (C48/80)-induced pruritus, and irritant dermatitis induced by 12-O ...

Mechanism of stigmasterol dealkylation in insect [PDF]

open access: yesTetrahedron Letters, 1984
Abstract Deuterated stigmasterols (10, 11 and 12) were chemically synthesized and fed to silk-worm larvae. GC-MS analysis of the metabolites, cholesterol (4) and desmosterol (6), indicates the migration of 25-hydrogen to C-24 position during stigmasterol dealkylation.

Studies on Relation between Solubilities of Stigmasterol and Non-Stigmasterol prepared from Soysterol

open access: yesJournal of Japan Oil Chemists' Society, 1963
Solubility measurement in organic solvents was applied on stigmasterol, non-stigmasterol and these mixtures. These results are given in tables and figures.Separation of stigmasterol from the sterols mixtures was found difficult by inoculation method.From these data, stigmasterol and non-stigmasterol showed a behavior like a solid solution in ...
