Cholesterol (synthetic) is the major sterol in mammals. It is making up 20-25% of structural component of the plasma membrane. Plasma membranes are highly permeable to water but relatively impermeable to ions and protons. Cholesterol (synthetic) plays an important role in determining the fluidity and permeability characteristics of the membrane as well as the function of both the transporters and signaling proteins . Cholesterol (synthetic) is also an endogenous estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) agonist .

CAS No.: 11041-12-6
Synonyms: Cholestyramine resin; Colestyramine
Cholestyramine (Cholestyramine resin) is an orally active bile acid sequestrant. Cholestyramine upregulates the expression of intestinal Apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter and hepatic Cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase. Cholestyramine induces the expression of intestinal and hepatic cholesterol synthesis genes as well as hepatic lipogenesis genes, and promotes bile acid- and neutral sterol-mediated reverse cholesterol transport. Cholestyramine reduces intestinal cholesterol absorption and induces cholesterol efflux. Cholestyramine is applicable to research related to coronary artery disease, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis .

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 .

Mitotane (2,4′-DDD), an isomer of DDD and derivative of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), is an antineoplastic agent, can be used to research adrenocortical carcinoma. Mitotane exert its adrenocorticolytic effect at least in part through lipotoxicity induced by intracellular free cholesterol (FC) accumulation. Mitotane can have direct pituitary effects on corticotroph cells. Mitotane can induce CYP3A4 gene expression via steroid and xenobiotic receptor (SXR) activation, and has agent-agent interactions .
