5BETA,6BETA-EPOXYCHOLESTAN-3BETA-OL Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Cholesterol 5beta,6beta-epoxide is an oxysterol produced as an oxidation product of cholesterol.

Definition

ChEBI: Cholesterol beta-epoxide is 5,6beta-epoxy-5beta-cholestan-3beta-ol It is a 3beta-hydroxy steroid, an oxysterol and an epoxy steroid. It derives from a hydride of a 5beta-cholestane.

Biological Activity

Cholesterol 5β,6β-epoxide is an oxysterol produced as an oxidation product of cholesterol. Oxysterols are cytotoxic and induce death in monocytes, smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. The mechanism of apoptosis induced by oxysterols may involve caspases or DNA fragmentation.
