7-Dehydrodesmosterol

Description:

7-Dehydrodesmosterol is a sterol compound that serves as an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of cholesterol and other sterols. It is characterized by its structure, which features a steroid nucleus with a double bond at the 7-position, contributing to its unique properties. This compound is typically found in various biological systems, particularly in animal tissues, and plays a role in cellular membrane fluidity and signaling. 7-Dehydrodesmosterol is also notable for its potential health implications, as it can be converted into vitamin D upon exposure to ultraviolet light. Its presence in the body is linked to metabolic pathways that regulate cholesterol levels, and it may be involved in certain physiological processes. In terms of physical properties, 7-Dehydrodesmosterol is generally a solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents. Its study is significant in the fields of biochemistry and pharmacology, particularly concerning cholesterol metabolism and related disorders.

7-Dehydro Desmosterol is a hydroxylated sterol found in the liver. It is an intermediate in cholesterol synthesis and participates in the regulation of glucose metabolism. The enzyme responsible for its synthesis (7-dehydrocholesterol reductase) is inhibited by radiation, which leads to its accumulation in the liver. 7-Dehydro desmosterol has been shown to have beneficial effects on experimental models of diabetes and metabolic disorders. In these studies, it was found that 7-dehydro desmosterol can inhibit glucose absorption from the intestine and stimulate insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells.
