General description

7α,27-dihydroxycholesterol (7α,27-di-OHC) is synthesized by the hydroxylation of 27-hydroxycholesterol (27-OHC). It is an oxysterol with side chains oxidized and is a structural isomer of 7α,25-dihydroxycholesterol. 7α,27-dihydroxycholesterol-d6 is a deuterated derivative of 7α,27-di-OHC.

Application

7α,27-dihydroxycholesterol-d6 has been used as a deuterated internal standard in liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric (LC/ESI-MS/MS) for human plasma oxysterol analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

7α,27-dihydroxycholesterol (7α,27-di-OHC) is a ligand for Epstein-Barr virus-induced gene 2 (EBI2). 7α27-di-OHC is implicated in neurological disease, Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome, obesity metabolic syndrome and diabetes by lipidomics analysis of human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. The levels of 7α,27-di-OHC decreases in lipopolysaccharide activation.

High amounts of cholesterol have been definitely associated with the pathogenesis of several diseases, including metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. In all these pathologies the exacerbation of pro-oxidant and inflammatory responses is a consistent feature. In this

Oxysterols are cholesterol derivatives that have been suggested to play a role in inflammatory diseases such as obesity, atherosclerosis, or neuroinflammatory diseases. However, the effect of neuroinflammation on oxysterol levels has only been partially studied so far. We used an

Oxysterols previously were considered intermediates of bile acid and steroid hormone biosynthetic pathways. However, recent research has emphasized the roles of oxysterols in essential physiologic processes and in various diseases. Despite these discoveries, the metabolic pathways leading to the different
