LXR
Liver X receptor
LXRs (Liver X Receptor α and β) are members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors. LXRs are oxysterol-activated transcription factors that upregulate a suite of genes that together promote coordinated mobilization of excess cholesterol from cells and from the body. The LXRs, like other nuclear receptors, are anti-inflammatory, inhibiting signal-dependent induction of pro-inflammatory genes by nuclear factor-κB, activating protein-1, and other transcription factors.
LXRα is expressed predominately in some tissues, including the liver, kidney, macrophages, and adipose tissue. However, LXRβ is ubiquitously expressed. Activating LXRα (mainly expressed in liver) results in high triglyceride production, and growing evidence suggests that selective LXRβ agonists can reduce this side effect.

Ginsenoside C-K hexapropionate ester
0 ImagesGinsenoside C-K hexapropionate ester (Structure 2) is a selective agonist of LXRα, with no significant activation effect on LXRβ. Ginsenoside C-K hexapropionate ester upregulates the expression of downstream genes such as ABCA1 by activating LXRα, promoting reverse cholesterol transport, and reducing lipid deposition in macrophage-derived foam cells. It can be used in the research of atherosclerosis. Ginsenoside C-K hexapropionate ester is a derivative synthesized from ginsenoside Compound K, an active metabolite of Panax notoginseng saponins, by modification with propionic anhydride.

Desmosterol (Standard)
0 ImagesDesmosterol (Standard) is the analytical standard of Desmosterol. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Desmosterol is a cholesterol-like molecule. In the Bloch pathway of cholesterol biosynthesis, Desmosterol is a direct precursor of cholesterol. As an endogenous metabolite, Desmosterol is used to study cholesterol metabolism [1]. Desmosterol is an LXR activator and SREBP inhibitor, which can suppress macrophage inflammasome activation and prevent vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis. A reduction in Desmosterol promotes the production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) in macrophages and pyrin domain-dependent inflammasome activation of NLRP3. Desmosterol holds potential for research in inflammation, metabolism, and cardiovascular diseases [1][2][3].
