Hyodeoxycholic acid, also known as HDCA, is a secondary bile acid. Natural 6alpha-hydroxylated bile acids are receptor-specific activators of nuclear liver X receptor alpha (LXRalpha), a nuclear receptor regulating the expression of the cholesterol 7...
T0901317 is a potent, high affinity liver X receptors (LXRs) agonist. It upregulates expression of the ABCA1 gene associated with cholesterol efflux regulation and high-density lipoproteins metabolism. It also exhibits inverse agonist activity at con...
The isomer of fucosterol, isofucosterol, has been identified as a minor constituent of marine sponge, Gynostemma pentafillum, oat seeds and a few other plants. Isofucosterol of marine sponge is believed to be the biosynthetic precursors of the antivi...

Stigmastanol is a plant lipid molecule that resembles cholesterol in structure. It inhibits cholesterol absorption. Sitostanol powder (1 g) reduced cholesterol absorption by only 11.3 /- 7.4% (P = 0.2), confirming in vitro data showing poor solubili...
27-Hydroxycholesterol (27-HC) is an endogenous oxysterol produced by the enzyme CYP27A1, with multiple biological functions, including acting as a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) and as an agonist of the liver X receptor (LXR). Because ...
