cholesteryl

Cholesteryl palmitic acid is a cholesteryl ester. A cholesteryl ester is an ester of cholesterol. Fatty acid esters of cholesterol constitute about two-thirds of the cholesterol in the plasma. Cholesterol is a sterol (a combination of steroid and alcohol) and a lipid found in the cell membranes of all body tissues and transported in the blood plasma of all animals. The accumulation of cholesterol esters in the arterial intima (the innermost layer of an artery, in direct contact with the flowing blood) is a characteristic feature of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a disease affecting arterial blood vessels. It is a chronic inflammatory response in the walls of arteries, in large part to the deposition of lipoproteins (plasma proteins that carry cholesterol and triglycerides).

Cholesteryl Acetate is a cholesterol ester obtained from the esterification of the hydroxyl group of cholesterol with acetic acid. It functions as a metabolite in the human body and is both a cholesterol ester and an acetate ester.

Cholesteryl linoleate is the major cholesteryl ester in LDL and atherosclerotic lesions. It is present in LDL as a cholesteryl ester that is oxidized to form cholesteryl linoleate hydroperoxides using LDL receptor-associated proteins that are transferred to the plasma membranes of macrophages and CHO cells expressing 15-lipoxygenase.

Cholesteryl sulfate sodium (Sodium Cholesteryl Sulfate) is a sterol sulfate in human plasma. Cholesteryl sulfate sodium is a component of cell membrane and has a regulatory function. Cholesteryl sulfate sodium also activates multiple protein kinase C (PKC) iso-enzymes, especially the ε, η and ζ isoforms.

Cholesteryl formate (3beta-Acetoxy-cholest-5-ene), the first compounds to be isolated from red algae, is a cholesteryl ester.

Cholesteryl arachidonate is a human endogenous metabolite.

Cholesteryl behenate is a standard in electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry for the analysis of cholesteryl esters and cholesterol.

Cholesteryl oleate (Cholesteryl cis-9-octadecenoate) is a cholesteryl ester. Cholesteryl oleate can be used to synthesize solid lipid nanoparticles which is a nanoparticle-based gene therapy approach.

7-Oxocholesteryl acetate is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences and the catalog number is T124183.

Cholesterol is the primary sterol in mammals, accounting for approximately 20–25% of the plasma membrane structure. It plays a key role in regulating membrane fluidity, permeability, and protein function. As an endogenous agonist of estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα), cholesterol is widely involved in metabolic regulation and serves as a precursor for the synthesis of hormones and bile acids. It is commonly used in experimental models of hyperlipidemia.

Cholesterol Myristate (Cholesteryl Myristate) is a natural steroid found in traditional Chinese medicine that interacts with various ion channels, including the GABAA receptor, nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, and the inward-rectifier potassium ion channel.

Ilexoside XLVIII, a triterpene saponin isolated from the aqueous extract of Ilex kudincha leaves [1], functions as an acyl CoA cholesteryl acyl transferase (ACAT) inhibitor.

Isomucronulatol 7-O-glucoside, a natural product, has a molecular formula of C21H22O11. It is known for its glycosidic linkage between isomucronulatol and glucose, which contributes to its biological activity and potential therapeutic applications. This compound can be isolated from various plant species and has been studied for its pharmacological properties.

27-trans-p-Coumaroyloxyursolic acid and 27-cis-p-coumaroyloxyursolic acid show potent inhibitory activity in the acyl CoA cholesteryl acyl transferase (ACAT) assay.

Stachybotramide preferentially stimulate the plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP)-mediated transfer of cholesteryl esters (CE) from high density lipoprotein (HDL) to both very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL).
