Alternative pre-mRNA splicing of the sterol 27-hydroxylase gene (CYP 27) caused by a G to A mutation at the last nucleotide of exon 6 in a patient with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX)

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
A recently identified G to A mutation at the last nucleotide of exon 6 of the sterol 27-hydroxylase gene (CYP 27) in a patient with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) was shown here to cause alternative pre-mRNA splicing of the gene.

Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis patients with late diagnosed in single orthopedic clinic: two novel variants in the CYP27A1 gene

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal recessive lipid storage disorder caused by loss of function variants in the CYP27A1 gene which encodes sterol 27-hydroxylase, on chromosome 2q35.

Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) treatment during pregnancy in women with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX): lessons learned from 19 pregnancies.

open access: yesGenetics in Medicine
PURPOSE Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare, autosomal recessive bile acid synthesis disorder. Biallelic pathogenic variants in CYP27A1, encoding for sterol 27-hydroxylase, impair cholic acid (CA) and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) synthesis and

Increased plasma bile alcohol glucuronides in patients with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis: effect of chenodeoxycholic acid

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1987
Large quantities of C27 bile alcohols hydroxylated at C-25 are excreted in the bile and urine of patients with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, a lipid storage disease that results from defective bile acid synthesis.

Meat levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in Moroccan one-humped dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of this study was to determine the 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OH-D3) amounts in meat and serum of the Moroccan one-humped camels. The obtained results showed that the 25-OH-D3 amounts in serum (ng/mL), liver, kidney and muscle (ng/g) were 390±45; 7.
