General description

22(S)-hydroxycholesterol is an enantiomer of 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol. 22(S)-hydroxycholesterol-d7 is a deuterated form of 22(S)-hydroxycholesterol.

Application

22(S)-hydroxycholesterol-d7 may be used as an internal standard in liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) analysis of plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL).

Biochem/physiol Actions

22(S)-hydroxycholesterol (22(S)-HC) promotes glucose catabolism and uptake and is regarded as a potential target to treat type 2 diabetes. 22(S)-HC also prevents the accumulation of lipids and lipid synthesis in hepatocytes and myotubes. Unlike 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol, 22(S)-HC is not estrogenic and is not a ligand for liver X receptor (LXR).
