Description

Cholesterol hydrogen succinate is a cholesterol derivative that inhibits the activity of various receptors, including the LDL-receptor which is involved in the uptake of cholesterol from the blood. It also has inhibitory properties against infectious diseases and can be used as an experimental model for coronary heart disease. Cholesterol hydrogen succinate has been shown to inhibit the phase transition temperature (Tc) of human serum. This drug also possesses anti-oxidative properties and has been shown to have protective effects on mitochondrial membrane potential. The biological properties of this compound include its ability to induce hemisuccinate formation by hydrolyzing cholesteryl esters and inhibit endoxifen activity.
