Interaction of fatty acids with oxidation of cholesterol and β-sitosterol
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of stearic acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid on the degradation of cholesterol and β-sitosterol was studied and it was concluded that the surrounding fatty acids affected sterol oxidation in a timedependent manner and their effect was unlikely related to their degree of unsaturation.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Interestingly, a thromboxane-prostanoid (TP) receptor blocker S18886 reversed SOPs-impaired vasorelaxation, suggesting the involvement of TP receptor in mediating the downstream effect.
