  3. 7α,27-Dihydroxycholesterol

7α,27-Dihydroxycholesterol is an oxysterol characterized by its oxidized side chains and is produced through the hydroxylation of 27-Hydroxycholesterol (27-OHC); it serves as a metabolite of interest in lipidomic analyses of various pathological conditions, including neurological diseases, Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome, obesity metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. Notably, levels of 7α,27-di-OHC decrease following lipopolysaccharide activation, and it also functions as a ligand for Epstein-Barr virus-induced gene 2 (EBI2). Additionally, 7α,27-di-OHC exists as a structural isomer of 7α,25-dihydroxycholesterol (7α25-OHC).

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
