Cholestanol

Description:

Cholestanol, with the CAS number 80-97-7, is a sterol, specifically a saturated derivative of cholesterol. It is characterized by its molecular formula C27H48O, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a steroid backbone. Cholestanol is a white, crystalline solid that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and chloroform. It has a melting point that typically falls within a specific range, indicating its solid state at room temperature. This compound plays a significant role in biological systems, particularly in the structure and function of cell membranes, where it contributes to membrane fluidity and stability. Cholestanol is also of interest in the study of lipid metabolism and has been investigated for its potential implications in various health conditions, including cardiovascular diseases. Its presence in biological samples can serve as a biomarker for certain metabolic disorders. Overall, cholestanol is an important compound in both biochemistry and pharmacology.

b-Cholestanol

Controlled Product

CAS: 80-97-7

b-Cholestanol is a fatty acid that is used as a test compound in molecular modeling. It has been shown to be metabolized by the enzyme soybean lipoxygenase, which converts it to hydroxycholestanol. Hydroxycholestanol has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on the lipid peroxidation of hydrophobic lipids in human feces, which may be due to its ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species. b-Cholestanol has also been shown to be effective in treating cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, a metabolic disorder characterized by high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood and tissues.
