Descripción

General description

5β,6β-epoxycholestanol (5β,6β-EC) is generated by cholesterol epoxidation and is a diastereoisomer of 5α,6α-epoxycholestanol (5α,6α-EC).

Application

5β,6β-epoxycholestanol may be used as a oxy-mix component in treating human colorectal adenocarcinoma CaCo-2 cells to test its effect on toll-like receptor (TLR) expression, in the preparation of langmuir monolayers for isotherm studies, as an internal standard for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS) chromatograms

Biochem/physiol Actions

5β,6β-epoxycholestanol (5β,6β-EC) is associated with human carotid plaques and is not down-regulated by apolipoprotein A1 (apoA-I) protein. 5,6β-EC along with 5α,6α-epoxycholesterol and other oxysterols are reported to be associated with Alzheimer′s disease. It is catabolized by the enzyme cholesterol-5,6-epoxide hydrolase (ChEH) enzyme to 3β,5α,6β-triol. 5β,6β-EC elicits cytotoxic and inflammatory properties.

Packaging

5 mL PTFE Vial with Screw Cap (700033P-5mg)
