• Descripción: 22a-Hydroxycholesterol is a naturally occurring, oxygenated cholesterol metabolite. It binds to the transcriptional coactivator retinoid X receptor (RXR) and inhibits the activity of certain liver enzymes. 22a-Hydroxycholesterol has been shown to have toxic effects on mouse tumors and to inhibit the production of ATP in vitro. 22a-Hydoxycholesterol also inhibits the function of ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter proteins, which are involved in cholesterol transport from cells. The long-term toxicity of 22a-hydroxycholesterol is not well understood, although it has been shown that this metabolite can induce autoimmune diseases in rats.
