Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Cholestanone is a cholesterol metabolite that has a keto group in place of the 3-hydroxy group on cholesterol.1 It decreases TGF-β-induced Smad2 phosphorylation and TGF-β expression and prevents inhibition of DNA synthesis by TGF-β in Mv1Lu cells when used at a concentration of 50 μg/ml.2 Increased fecal excretion of cholestenone is correlated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer. Cholestenone reduces serum cholesterol levels in a variety of animal models but is toxic to rats when administered at doses of 700-1,000 mg/kg per day, inducing hypertrophy in and reducing the activity of the adrenal gland.3 It has been used as synthetic intermediate in the synthesis of steroids.4 | [Chemical Properties]

4-Cholesten-3-one is used as a chiral building block for proteomics research. It is an intestinal metabolite of cholesterol and exhibits an anti-obesity effect on animals. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Cholest-4-en-3-one is a cholestanoid that is cholest-4-ene substituted by an oxo group at position 3. It has a role as a human metabolite and a plant metabolite. It is a cholestanoid and a 3-oxo-Delta(4) steroid. | [General Description]
Cholestenone is a cholesterol metabolite and analog, which substitutes membrane cholesterol and elevates membrane fluidity. | [storage]
