Sterol synthesis. A simplified method for the synthesis of 32-oxygenated derivatives of 24,25-dihydrolanosterol.

چکیده
A simplified method is described for the preparation of 14 alpha-hydroxymethyl-4,4-dimethyl-5 alpha-cholest-8-en-e beta-ol, 14 alpha-hydroxymethyl-4,4-dimethyl-5 alpha-cholest-7-en-3 beta-ol, and 14 alpha-hydroxymethyl-4,4-dimethyl-5-alpha-cholest-6-en-3 beta-ol from commercial lanosterol. This method represents a modification of the approach introduced by Fried and co-workers (Fried, J., J. W. Brown, and L. Borkenhagen. 1965. Tetrahedron Lett. 2499-2504).

Effect of 26-oxygenosterols from Ganoderma lucidum and their activity as cholesterol synthesis inhibitors.
Ganoderma lucidum is a medicinal fungus belonging to the Polyporaceae family which has long been known in Japan as Reishi and has been used extensively in traditional Chinese medicine. We report the isolation and identification of the 26-oxygenosterols ganoderol A, ganoderol B, ganoderal A, and ganoderic acid Y and their biological effects on cholesterol synthesis in a human hepatic cell line i...

Electron transfer to rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 of 14 alpha-methyl group demethylation of 24,25-dihydrolanosterol (C30-sterol) has been studied with a new radio-high-performance liquid chromatography assay. The monooxygenase is dependent upon NADPH plus oxygen, insensitive to CN-, and sensitive to CO. Microsomal oxidation is also sensitive to trypsin digestion, and reactivation is de...

precursors, including lanosterol, into poriferasterol (III) by Ochromonas malhamensis has been demonstrated (Hall et al., 1969; Lenton et al., 1971). Since a cell-free extract of peas can alkylate lanosterol, cycloartenol or desmosterol but not 24,25-dihydrolanosterol (I) or cholesterol (11), it has been suggested that sterols without a A24-bond cannot be alkylated (Russell et al., 1967). Howev...

Larvae of Manduca sexta were used to obtain a cell-free sterol 24,25-reductase. From the midgut of fifth instar larvae fed a mixture of sitosterol and campesterol a microsome-bound 24,25-sterol reductase was prepared that transformed desmosterol (K,,,, 3 pM), lanosterol (K,,,, 18 pM), and cycloartenol (K,, 33 pM) to cholesterol, 24,25-dihydrolanosterol, and cycloartanol, respectively. With desm...

The formation of cholesterol synthesis inhibiting molecules by five different strains of the koji mold Aspergillus oryzae was studied. After growing these strains on a complex liquid medium we found in crude organic phase extracts and specific fractions there from compounds inhibiting cholesterol synthesis in human hepatic T9A4 cells in vitro at enzyme sites downstream of dihydrolanosterol.
