General description

5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol is a structural derivative of cholesterol and is an abundant oxysterols. 5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol-d7 is a deuterated form of 5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol.

Application

5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol-d7 has been used as an analyte in liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) analysis based multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) studies and as an internal standard in tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for analysis of plasma samples.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5α,6β-dihydroxycholestanol (5α,6β-diOH-Chol) or cholestane-3β,5α,6β-triol (C-triol) levels are elevated along with 7-ketocholesterol in Niemann-Pick type C (NP-C) disease and is a key biomarkers for detection. It has ,neuroprotective functionality and may elicit protection against neuronal injury during ischemia.

Niemann-Pick type C (NP-C) is a rare progressive neurodegenerative lipid storage disorder with heterogeneous clinical presentation and challenging diagnostic procedures. Recently oxysterols have been reported to be specific biomarkers for NP-C but knowledge on the intra-individual variation and on reference

Oxysterols are intermediates of cholesterol metabolism and are generated from cholesterol via either enzymatic or nonenzymatic pathways under oxidative stress conditions. Cholestan-3β,5α,6β-triol (C-triol) and 7-ketocholesterol (7-KC) have been proposed as new biomarkers for the diagnosis of Niemann-Pick type C (NP-C)

In patients suspected of a lipid storage disorder (sphingolipidoses, lipidoses), confirmation of the diagnosis relies predominantly on the measurement of specific enzymatic activities and genetic studies. New UPLC-MS/MS methods have been developed to measure lysosphingolipids and oxysterols, which, combined with
