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 .

Rebaudioside D is an orally active sweetener that targets and activates FXR, modulates Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase, and inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase. Rebaudioside D regulates bile acid homeostasis and lipid metabolism, reduces the synthesis rates of fatty acids and cholesterol, and exerts multiple effects including anti-adipogenesis, hepatoprotection, anti-steatosis, gut microbiota modulation, enhancement of secondary bile acid metabolism, anti-endotoxin activity, regulation of bile acid transport, and inhibition of bile acid efflux. Rebaudioside D also reduces body weight gain, visceral fat accumulation, hepatic triglyceride and cholesterol accumulation, hepatic lipid peroxidation, and decreases the circulating level of lipopolysaccharide-binding protein. Rebaudioside D additionally enhances the secondary bile acid metabolic pathway of intestinal bacteria, upregulates the gene expression of ileal organic solute transporter α, and downregulates the gene expression of hepatic bile salt export pump. Rebaudioside D does not affect glucose homeostasis, alter total caloric intake or fecal energy excretion, induce weight gain, exacerbate obesity, promote hepatic steatosis, impair brown adipose tissue function, nor change skeletal muscle metabolism-related proteins. Rebaudioside D can be used in diet-induced obesity and obesity-related research .

Dehydroergosterol is a fluorescent cholesterol analog (Ex/Em = 325/375 nm) used in cholesterol transport, membrane structure research, and live-cell imaging. Unlike cholesterol, Dehydroergosterol contains three additional double bonds, an extra methyl group, and an ergosterol side chain, forming a conjugated system that produces intrinsic fluorescence. In its monomeric form, Dehydroergosterol exhibits excitation peaks at 310-311, 324, and 338-340 nm, as well as emission peaks at 354, 371-375, 390-394, and 414 nm; in its microcrystalline form, Dehydroergosterol shows enhanced excimer emission around 404 and 426 nm. Dehydroergosterol mimics the properties of cholesterol, integrates into membranes and lipoproteins, and localizes to organelles .

Fluoresterol (22-NBD Cholesterol) is a cholesterol-specific fluorescent probe with cholesterol-mimicking binding properties. Fluoresterol is ineffective orally and does not cross the blood-brain barrier. Fluoresterol specifically binds to cholesterol transport-related proteins (such as ABCA1 and ABCG1) and is primarily used in cholesterol metabolism research, particularly for the visualization and quantitative analysis of cholesterol absorption, efflux, intracellular transport efficiency, and reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) processes. The commonly used concentration of Fluoresterol in in vitro experiments is 0.1-10 μM, and the commonly used dose in in vivo experiments is 5-20 mg/kg (gavage or intraperitoneal injection), with excitation/emission wavelengths of 472/540 nm. Fluoresterol can be applied to the study of cholesterol metabolism mechanisms related to hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) .
