Abstract:
Compositions comprising 5-cholesten-3, 25-diol, 3-sulfate (25HC3S) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and at least one cyclic oligosaccharide, e.g., a cyclodextrin (CD), are provided. The compositions may be used to prevent and/or treat a variety of diseases and conditions, including organ failure (e.g. acute liver failure), high cholesterol/high lipids, and various inflammatory diseases and conditions.
Abstract:
The sulfated oxysterol 5-cholesten-3β, 25-diol 3-sulphate, a nuclear cholesterol metabolite that decreases lipid biosynthesis and increases cholesterol secretion and degradation, is provided as an agent to lower intracellular and serum cholesterol and/or triglycerides, and to prevent or treat lipid accumulation-associated inflammation and conditions associated with such inflammation. Methods which involve the use of this sulfated oxysterol to treat conditions associated with high cholesterol and/or high triglycerides and/or inflammation (e.g. hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases, atherosclerosis, etc.) are also provided.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure include methods for treating at least one autoimmune condition, such as at least one of hepatitis, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis. In some cases, the at least one autoimmune condition is associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection. In practicing the subject methods, an effective amount of at least one compound selected from 25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25HC3S), 25-hydroxycholesterol-disulfate (25HCDS), 27-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (27HC3S), 27-hydroxycholesterol-disulfate (27HCDS), 24-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (24HC3S), 24-hydroxycholesterol-disulfate (24HCDS), and 24,25-epoxycholesterol-3-sulfate, or salt thereof is administered to the subject.
Abstract:
Compositions comprising 5-cholesten-3,25-diol, 3-sulfate (25HC3S) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and at least one cyclic oligosaccharide, e.g., a cyclodextrin (CD), are provided. The compositions may be used to prevent and/or treat a variety of diseases and conditions, including organ failure (e.g. acute liver failure), high cholesterol/high lipids, and various inflammatory diseases and conditions.
Abstract:
5-cholesten, 3(3, 25-diol, disulfate (25HCDS) has been found to be an authentic PPARγ agonist and LXR antagonist, and is used for the therapy of lipid disorders and inflammatory diseases, including without limitation fatty liver, inflammatory bowel, and atherosclerotic disease.
Abstract:
Methods and compositions for the prevention and treatment of liver damage or disease in a subject in need thereof are provided. The methods involve providing the sulfated oxysterol 25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25HC3S) to the subject e.g. by 1) administering 25HC3S to the subject; or 2) overexpressing, in the subject, the hydroxysterol sulfotransferase enzyme SULT2B1b, which catalyzes the sulfation of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC) to form 25HC3S.

Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure include methods for treating at least one inflammatory condition, such as at least one of dental pulp inflammation, periodontal disease, skin inflammation, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, osteoarthritis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, pancreatitis (acute and/or chronic), hepatitis (viral and/or non-viral), atherosclerosis, myocarditis, idiopathic pulmonary disorder (IPD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD), pneumonia, chronic inflammatory lung disease, bronchitis, asthma, chronic kidney disease (CKD), nephritis, sepsis, ankylosing spondylitis, diverticulitis, and fibromyalgia. In some cases, the at least one inflammatory condition is associated with Epstein-Ban virus infection. In practicing the subject methods, an effective amount of at least one compound selected from 25-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (25HC3S), 25-hydroxycholesterol-disulfate (25HCDS), 27-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (27HC3S), 27-hydroxycholesterol-disulfate (27HCDS), 24-hydroxycholesterol-3-sulfate (24HC3S), 24-hydroxycholesterol-disulfate (24HCDS), and 24,25-epoxycholesterol-3-sulfate, or salt thereof is administered to the subject.
