Identification of 24-hydroxycholesterol in bovine adrenals in both free and esterified forms and in bovine brains as its sulfate ester.

V V Prasad, L Ponticorvo, S Lieberman.   

Abstract

24-Hydroxycholesterol was found to be present in bovine adrenals in a concentration of 2-3 micrograms/kg and in larger amounts (10-12 micrograms/kg) as a saponifiable ester. No solvolyzable sulfate ester was detected. In bovine brains, however, the sulfate ester of this sterol was found in a concentration of 84 micrograms/kg. A procedure for the synthesis of [7-3H] 24S-hydroxycholesterol is described.
