1. Glicação avançada em macrófagos diminui o conteúdo dos receptores de HDL - ABCA-1 e ABCG-1- e induz acúmulo intracelular de 7 -cetocolesterol / Advanced Glycation in macrophages decreases the content of the HDL receptor ABCA-1 and ABCG-1 - and induces intracellular accumulation of 7-ketocholesterol
Produtos de glicação avançada (AGE) alteram o metabolismo de lípides e, em especial, o efluxo de colesterol de macrófagos, por meio da redução dos receptores ABCA-1 e ABCG-1. Isto prejudica o transporte reverso de colesterol, sistema que favorece o fluxo de colesterol de macrófagos arteriais ao fígado, permitindo sua excreção na bile e eliminaçã

2. Side effects of oxysterols: cytotoxicity, oxidation, inflammation, and phospholipidosis
Oxysterols are 27-carbon atom molecules resulting from autoxidation or enzymatic oxidation of cholesterol. They are present in numerous foodstuffs and have been demonstrated to be present at increased levels in the plasma of patients with cardiovascular diseases and in atherosclerotic lesions. Thus, their role in lipid disorders is widely suspected, and they

3. A 7-ketocholesterol containing-nanoemulsion (LDE/7KC) inhibits growth of melanoma tumor in mice and increases survival rate / Nanoemulsão contendo 7-cetocolesterol (LDE/7KC) promove inibição do crescimento de melanoma em camundongos e aumento de sobrevida
7-ketocholesterol (7KC) is an oxysterol known to inhibit cell proliferation and to be cytotoxic. A nanoemulsion containing-7KC (LDE/7KC) was shown to have antiproliferative effects on RPMI 8226 myeloma cell line and melanoma (B16F10), in vitro. This particle is taken up mainly by LDL receptors. Here we have evaluated the plasma kinetic, biodistribution, anti

4. Avaliação do valor nutricional e ocorrência de óxidos de colesterol em peixe mandim (Arius spixii) comercializado em Maceió-AL.
Fish has long been highly regarded for its significant nutritional value. However, the presence of highly unsaturated fatty acids and high levels of cholesterol in some species, associated to the technological procedures employed in the processing, favor the oxidation of cholesterol. Cholesterol oxides are linked to adverse biological effects such as cytotox

5. Estabilidade oxidativa do colesterol em ovo integral em pó e em macarrão contendo ovos medida através do 7-cetocolesterol livre / Cholesterol oxidative stability in whole egg powder and pasta with eggs measured by free 7-ketocholesterol
O ovo é importante como alimento e matéria-prima industrial. O ovo é rico em colesterol que, por sua vez, está sujeito à oxidação, formando-se óxidos tóxicos. O presente trabalho teve como objetivos, a avaliação da formação do 7-cetocolesterol livre em ovo integral em pó e em macarrão contendo ovos, e a verificação da estabilidade oxidativa

6. Efeito citotóxico causado por emulsão lipídica contendo 7-cetocolesterol (OxLE) em cultura de células tumorais / Cytotoxic effects caused by 7-ketocholesterol-containing emulsion (OXLE) in tumor cells in culture
Oxysterols are oxygenated derivatives of cholesterol that may be formed by autoxidation or by action of specific enzymes. They exhibit a number of biologic activities including inhibition of cellular proliferation and cytotoxicity. Among oxysterols, 7-ketocholesterol (7-KC), that differs form cholesterol by a functional ketone group at C7, is known to induce

7. Nitric oxide, cholesterol oxides and endothelium-dependent vasodilation in plasma of patients with essential hypertension
The objective of the present study was to identify disturbances of nitric oxide radical (·NO) metabolism and the formation of cholesterol oxidation products in human essential hypertension. The concentrations of·NO derivatives (nitrite, nitrate, S-nitrosothiols and nitrotyrosine), water and lipid-soluble antioxidants and cholesterol oxides were measured in

8. 7-Ketocholesterol Incorporation into Sphingolipid/Cholesterol-enriched (Lipid Raft) Domains Is Impaired by Vitamin E: A SPECIFIC ROLE FOR α-TOCOPHEROL WITH CONSEQUENCES ON CELL DEATH*
Cholesterol oxides, in particular 7-ketocholesterol, are proatherogenic compounds that induce cell death in the vascular wall when localized in lipid raft domains of the cell membrane. Deleterious effects of 7-ketocholesterol can be prevented by vitamin E, but the molecular mechanism involved is unclear. In this study, unlike γ-tocopherol, the α-tocopherol

10. Inhibition of cholesteryl ester formation in human fibroblasts by an analogue of 7-ketocholesterol and by progesterone
The synthesis of cholesteryl esters in cultured human fibroblasts is catalyzed by a microsomal acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.26). The acyltransferase activity is enhanced when fibroblasts take up cholesterol contained in plasma low density lipoprotein. In the current studies two steroids, SC-31769 (an analogue of 7-ketocholesterol) an

11. NAD(P)H Oxidase Nox-4 Mediates 7-Ketocholesterol-Induced Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Apoptosis in Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells
The mechanisms involved in the cytotoxic action of oxysterols in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis still remain poorly understood. Among the major oxysterols present in oxidized low-density lipoprotein, we show here that 7-ketocholesterol (7-Kchol) induces oxidative stress and/or apoptotic events in human aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs). This specific ef

12. OSBP-related protein 2 is a sterol receptor on lipid droplets that regulates the metabolism of neutral lipidss⃞
Oxysterol binding protein-related protein 2 (ORP2) is a member of the oxysterol binding protein family, previously shown to bind 25-hydroxycholesterol and implicated in cellular cholesterol metabolism. We show here that ORP2 also binds 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol [22(R)OHC], 7-ketocholesterol, and cholesterol, with 22(R)OHC being the highest affinity ligand of
