27-Hydroxycholesterol, an oxysterol secreted from macrophages, may act to be capable of passing through the blood-brain barrier and entering the circulation via the brain. It may act to be a cholesterol oxidation metabolite that causes an increase in levels of GADD 153 and caspase-12 in ARPE-19 cells in vitro. 27-Hydroxycholesterol is an activator of LXR alpha and LXR beta. It has also been reported to increase levels of Abeta peptide production, reduce mitochondrial membrane potential, and induce nuclear factor kappaB (NFkappaB) and heme-oxygenase 1 (HO-1). Overall, 27-Hydroxycholesterol displays apoptotic properties via reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, glutathione depletion, and inflammation. 27-Hydroxycholesterol is also known as (25R)-26-Hydroxycholesterol, (25R)-Cholest-5-ene-3b,26-diol, and 25(R)-27-hydroxy Cholesterol.
