| 5-CHOLESTEN-3-BETA, 7-ALPHA-DIOL Usage And Synthesis |
Description | 7α-Hydroxycholesterol (566-26-7) is a metabolite resulting from the action of cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase on cholesterol. 7α-Hydroxycholesterol is the first intermediate and a rate limiting step in the major pathway for bile acid synthesis in humans.??A pro-inflammatory mediator which upregulates production of CCL2 and MMP9 in macrophages and may promote progression of atherosclerosis.2,3?Possible biomarker for cellular lipid peroxidation.4 | Chemical Properties | White Solid | Uses | Secondary metabolite of Cholesterol. | Definition | ChEBI: The 7alpha-hydroxy derivative of cholesterol. | References | 1) Duane and Javitt (2002),?Conversion of 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol to bile acid in human subjects: is there an alternate pathway favoring cholic acid synthesis?; J.
