General description

5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol is a structural derivative of cholesterol and is an abundant oxysterols. 5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol-d7 is a deuterated form of 5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol.

Application

5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol-d7 has been used as an analyte in liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) analysis based multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) studies and as an internal standard in tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for analysis of plasma samples.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol (5α,6β-diOH-Chol) or cholestane-3β,5α,6β-triol (C-triol) levels are elevated along with 7-ketocholesterol in Niemann-Pick type C (NP-C) disease and is a key biomarkers for detection. It has ,neuroprotective functionality and may elicit protection against neuronal injury during ischemia.

Oxysterols are intermediates of cholesterol metabolism and are generated from cholesterol via either enzymatic or nonenzymatic pathways under oxidative stress conditions. Cholestan-3β,5α,6β-triol (C-triol) and 7-ketocholesterol (7-KC) have been proposed as new biomarkers for the diagnosis of Niemann-Pick type C (NP-C)

Overstimulation of NMDA-type glutamate receptors is believed to be responsible for neuronal death of the CNS in various disorders, including cerebral and spinal cord ischemia. However, the intrinsic and physiological mechanisms of modulation of these receptors are essentially unknown. Here

In patients suspected of a lipid storage disorder (sphingolipidoses, lipidoses), confirmation of the diagnosis relies predominantly on the measurement of specific enzymatic activities and genetic studies. New UPLC-MS/MS methods have been developed to measure lysosphingolipids and oxysterols, which, combined with
