7-KETOCHOLESTEROL Chemical Properties,Usage,Production
Description
7-keto Cholesterol is a bioactive sterol and a major oxysterol component of oxidized LDL. It is produced by oxidation of cholesterol via ethanol-mediated lipid peroxidation or photodamage as well as oxidation of 7-dehydro cholesterol by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP7A1. 7-keto Cholesterol inhibits CYP7A1 (IC50 = ~1 μM). It induces activation and chemotaxis of retinal microglia as well as polarization to a pro-inflammatory state via NLRP3 inflammasome activation in vitro. Intraocular implantation of 7-keto cholesterol coated wafers increases ocular levels of VEGF, IL-1β, and GRO/KC, macrophage infiltration, and neovascularization in rat eye. Levels of 7-keto cholesterol in lipid deposits are increased in a variety of chronic diseases, including atherosclerosis, Alzheimer''s disease, and age-related macular degeneration.
Chemical Properties
Off-White Solid
Uses
5-Cholesten-3β-ol-7-one was used as a standard in the determination of cholesterol derivatives by GC-MS and HPLC.
Uses
A metabolite of Cholesterol
Definition
ChEBI: A cholestanoid that consists of cholesterol bearing an oxo substituent at position 7.
General Description
7-ketocholesterol is a major oxidation product of cholesterol.
Biochem/physiol Actions
7-ketocholesterol is a strong inhibitor of cytochrome P450 7A1. It modulates cholesterol homeostasis, cytotoxicity and apoptosis. 7-ketocholesterol stimulates inflammation, growth inhibition and vascular endothelial growth factor. Cellular accumulation of 7-ketocholesterol enhances oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis in macrophages.
Safety Profile
Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes
