The endogenous oxysterol 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol (22RHC, 1) is an LXR agonist which upregulates genes of critical involvement in human cholesterol- and lipid metabolism. In contrast, its synthetic epimer 22(S)-hydroxycholesterol (22SHC, 8) has shown specific antagonistic effects in recent studies, avoiding unwanted side effects provided by potent LXR agonists. In terms of LXR modulation, the aim of this study was to compare 22SHC (8), 22RHC (1) and synthesized ligands with keto- and amide functionality in the 22nd position of the cholesterol scaffold. 22SHC (8) and 22RHC (1) performed as expected while 22-ketocholesterol (22KC, 10) revealed an attractive in vitro profile for further investigation in terms of anti-atherosclerotic properties as selective upregulation of the ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCA1 was observed. A new synthesized amide derivate, Fernholtz cyclohexylamide (13) was shown to reduce lipogenesis in a dose-responsive manner and abolish the effect of the potent LXR agonist T0901317 when administered simultaneously.

An efficient approach toward 22-oxygenated steroid side chains has been accomplished utilizing the -Wittig rearrangement of the dianion derived from the (E)-17(20)-ethylidene-16α-(carboxymethyl)oxy steroid.

The effects of oxidized cholesterols on proliferation and IgM production of human lymphoblastoid Namalwa cells were examined. An oxidized cholesterol mixture, in contrast to cholesterol, was a potent cytotoxin to Namalwa cells. Among oxidized cholesterols examined, 25-hydroxycholesterol was the most cytotoxic. However, no oxidized cholesterol examined suppressed IgM production, although cholestanetriol and 7-ketocholesterol did suppress it. Thus, oxidized cholesterols are cytotoxic to lymphocytes, while the influence on the immunoglobulin production may be marginal.

A series of 22-hydroxycholesterol derivatives with a modified side chain terminus was prepared.These agents were evaluated in vitro and in vivo for their ability to suppress HMG CoA reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis.In tissue culture assays, 22-hydroxycholesterol as well as the side chain modified analogues were potent inhibitors of HMG CoA reductase.However, only those sterols with a modified side chain terminus were effective suppressors of liver reductase whene administered ig to rats. 22-Hydroxy-25-methylcholesterol (4a) and 25-fluoro-22-hydroxycholesterol (15a) significantly lowered serum cholesterol levels when administered ig to primates; 25-chloro-22-hydroxycholesterol (15b) and the analogue with a cyclopropyl terminus, 20b, were ineffective.The cholesterol-lowering sterols did not significantly alter lipoprotein levels; however, the two compounds have been shown to inhibit acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol-transferase (ACAT) in tissue culture studies
