Descripción

General description

5α,6α-epoxycholestanol (5α,6α-EC) is generated by cholesterol epoxidation. 5α,6α-epoxycholestanol-d7 is a deuterated derivative of 5α,6α-EC. It is catabolized by the enzyme cholesterol-5,6-epoxide hydrolase (ChEH) enzyme to 3β,5α,6β-triol.

Application

5α,6α-epoxycholestanol-d7 has been used as an internal standard in isotope dilution-mass spectrometry analysis of heart mitochondrial samples. It may be used as an internal standard in liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) analysis of plasma samples.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5α,6α-epoxycholestanol (5α,6α-EC) is a liver X receptor (LXR) antagonist. 5α,6α-EC is employed in anticancer treatments. It impairs redox state and affects atherogenesis. The levels of 5α,6α-EC are elevated in hypercholesterolemia. It mediates steroid receptor coactivator (SRC) recruitment.
