| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
24(S)-hydroxy Cholesterol is a side-chain substituted oxysterol that has important roles in cholesterol homeostasis. It is generated by the action of CYP46 on cholesterol in the brain and diffuses across the blood-brain barrier to the systemic circulation where it can modulate cell signaling, be used for further sterol biosynthesis, or be metabolized in the liver. 24(S)-hydroxy cholesterol potently activates LXRα and LXRβ nuclear receptors (EC50 = 4 and 3 μM, respectively), causing upregulation of cholesterol-lowering genes. In the brain, this oxysterol controls cholesterol processing to facilitate neurological repair during Alzheimer’s disease and other neuropathological conditions. | [Uses]
(3β,24S)-Cholest-5-ene-3,24-diol is used as a biomarker in the analysis of disease.
| [Definition]
ChEBI: (24S)-24-hydroxycholesterol is a 24-hydroxycholesterol that has S configuration at position 24. It is the major metabolic breakdown product of cholesterol in the brain. It has a role as a mouse metabolite, a biomarker and a human blood serum metabolite. | [General Description]
24(S)-hydroxycholesterol (24HC) is synthesized from cholesterol in brain dendrites by the action of enzyme cholesterol 24-hydroxylase (CYP46A1). It is catabolized to bile acids in the liver. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
24(S)-hydroxycholesterol (24HC) elevated levels are reported in liver inflammation and fibrosis. It is a N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) modulator. The levels of 24HC are potential indicators of brain development as well as pathology including Alzheimer′s disease (AD) and multiple sclerosis. Polymorphism in the cholesterol 24-hydroxylase (CYP46A1) gene leads to elevated 24HC levels and toxicity. 24HC is a mediator of apoptosis and necroptosis. Elevated levels of 24HC are reported in liver inflammation and fibrosis. | [References]
