Produktinformation

• Name: 24,25-Epoxycholesterol
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 24,25-Epoxycholesterol is a type of oxysterol that binds to the benzoyl group of benzoates. It is also known as an inhibitor of cholesterol synthesis. 24,25-Epoxycholesterol has been shown to bind to human liver cells with high affinity and inhibit cholesterol synthesis. This compound has also been shown to increase vitamin D levels by inhibiting the conversion of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. This inhibition leads to increased availability of vitamin D in the body due to decreased degradation. As a result, 24,25-epoxycholesterol may be useful in pharmacological treatments for diseases such as atherosclerosis and diabetes mellitus type II.
