General description

25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25OHC3S) is a nuclear oxysterol. It accumulates in hepatocyte nuclei upon steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (STARD1) overexpression.

Application

25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate has been used to induce anti-inflammatory responses and understand its effect on lymphocyte migration. It has also been used as an oxysterol sulfate standard in mass spectroscopy and liquid chromatography methods.

Biochem/physiol Actions

25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25OHC3S) is involved in lipid homeostasis in liver and is a lipid metabolism regulator. 25OHC3S acts on liver X receptor (LXR) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) and inhibits cholesterol synthesis by downregulating enzymes of the biosynthesis pathway in hepatocytes and macrophages. It also acts an agonist for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) and modulates the nuclear factor κ-light-chain-enhancer (NF-κB) based inflammatory response. 25OHC3S modulates tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα)-induced inflammatory response in hepatocytes.

Recently, a novel oxysterol, 5-cholesten-3beta, 25-diol 3-sulfate (25HC3S) was identified in primary rat hepatocytes following overexpression of the cholesterol transport protein, StarD1. This oxysterol was also detected in human liver nuclei. In the present study, 25HC3S was chemically synthesized. Addition

The nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are important in regulating lipid metabolism and inflammatory responses in macrophages. Activation of PPARγ represses key inflammatory response gene expressions. Recently, we identified a new cholesterol metabolite, 25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25HC3S), as a potent regulatory

The oxysterol receptor LXR is a key transcriptional regulator of lipid metabolism. LXR increases expression of SREBP-1, which in turn regulates at least 32 genes involved in lipid synthesis and transport. We recently identified 25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25HC3S) as an important regulatory

Dysregulation of lipid metabolism is frequently associated with inflammatory conditions. The mechanism of this association is still not clearly defined. Recently, we identified a nuclear oxysterol, 25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25HC3S), as an important regulatory molecule involved in lipid metabolism in hepatocytes. The

Although immune responses are essential to protect the body from infection, they can also harm tissues. Certain tissues and organs, including the eye, constitute specialized microenvironments that locally inhibit immune reactivity. Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 2 (DOCK2) is a Rac-specific
