Biological activities of oxysterols
Leland L. Smith,Betty H. Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: Circumstantial evidence implicates oxysterols of the human diet and those formed in vivo with human health disorders, but recent work also supports an hypothesis that some oxysterol be endogenous intracellular regulators of de novo sterol biosynthesis.

Biological effects of oxysterols: Current status
TL;DR: The authors find that OS deserve much more attention than cholesterol itself in terms of research activity but that unfortunately the reverse is true with regard to funding.

Review article number 67Triterpenoids
TL;DR: A compilation of the triterpenoids isolated during the period 1982–1989 along with their occurrence, available physical data, spectroscopy and X-ray analysis used for their characterization, is included.

Biosynthetic studies of marine lipids. 35. The demonstration of de novo sterol biosynthesis in sponges using radiolabeled isoprenoid precursors.
TL;DR: It is likely that all sponges are capable of de novo sterol biosynthesis, based on work with radiolabeled lanosterol, cycloartenol, mevalonate and acetate.

Structural analysis of the interaction between the side-chain of substrates and the active site of lanosterol 14α-demethylase (P-45014DM) of yeast
TL;DR: It is suggested that yeast P-450(14)DM recognizes two parts of the side-chain, the structure around C-24 and the terminal fork consisting of C-25, C-26 and C-27, which indicates that lanosterol derivatives having functional groups on the side.
