| Application: | Bovine aortic endothelial cells were treated with 22(R)-Hydroxycholesterol to study the effects on production of free radicals and in studies related to fatty acid metabolism. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | 22(R)-Hydroxycholesterol is an intermediate of the pregnenolone synthesis pathway from cholesterol. It reported has neuroprotective properties and protects the neurons against β-amyloid-induced cell death. 22(R)-Hydroxycholesterol acts as the ligand of liver X receptors that act as sensors of sterol concentration and regulates the fatty acid metabolism. |
