LXR Activator

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 . 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 .

24-Hydroxycholesterol is a natural sterol, which serves as a positive allosteric modulator of N-Methyl-d-Aspartate (NMDA) receptorsR, and a potent activator of the transcription factors LXR.

Saikosaponin A is the main active ingredient in Bupleurum chinense, which can regulate lipid metabolism and promote cholesterol efflux in early atherosclerosis. In addition, Saikosaponin A may also serve as a potential peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) agonist, significantly promoting the expression of PPAR-γ. Saikosaponin A can be used in the study of hyperlipidemic pancreatitis.

Kuwanon G is a flavonoid compound and an antagonist of the bombesin receptor. Kuwanon G has multiple activities such as bactericidal, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-atherosclerotic, and neuroprotective effects. Kuwanon G exhibits strong antibacterial activity against oral pathogens, especially cariogenic bacteria and periodontal pathogens. Kuwanon G can induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation, migration, and invasion of tumor cells. Kuwanon G can be used in the research of diseases such as gastric cancer and atherosclerosis.

ABCA1 inducer 2 is a non-lipotropic ABCA1 inducer. ABCA1 inducer 2 upregulates the expression of ABCA1 by targeting the LXR pathway. ABCA1 inducer 2 can reduce ox-LDL-induced lipid accumulation and thus inhibit foam cell formation. ABCA1 inducer 2 has anti-atherosclerotic potential.

Desmosterol (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].

Ouabagenin is a naturally occurring LXR ligand with LXR selective agonist activity. Ouabagenin acts as an EC 3.6.3.9 (Na(+)/K(+)- transport ATPase) inhibitor.

25(S)-27-Hydroxy cholesterol is a metabolite of CYP27A1 mediated cholesterol hydroxylation. 25(S)-27-Hydroxy cholesterol inhibits melanoma cell proliferation.
