For the purpose of applying the particular antibodies as a new diagnostic procedure for atherosclerosis and related diseases, we successfully achieved the synthesis of the fatty sterol with a linker, then linked the target protein to this sterol. Synthesis was started from pregnenolone and achieved by the Grignard reaction with pentenyl magnesium bromide, regioselective photo-addition of thiolacetic acid toward the 25-double bond, esterification of 3-OH with linoleic anhydride, in situ conjunction of the cross-linker (MBS) to the thiol group after selective deprotection from its acetyl ester, and finally by the reaction with protein such as KLH or albumin through this linker.

Synthesis of new C-25 and C-26 steroidal acids as potential ligands of the nuclear receptors DAF-12, LXR and GR

A new methodology to obtain C-25 and C-26 steroidal acids starting from pregnenolone is described. Construction of the side chain was achieved by applying the Mukaiyama aldol reaction with a non-hydrolytic work-up to isolate the trapped silyl enol ether with higher yields. Using this methodology we synthesized three new steroidal acids as potential ligands of DAF-12, Liver X and Glucocorticoid nuclear receptors and studied their activity in reporter gene assays. Our results show that replacement of the 21-CH3 by a 20-keto group in the side chains of the cholestane scaffold of DAF-12 or Liver X receptors ligands causes the loss of the activity.
Synthesis of withanolide A, biological evaluation of its neuritogenic properties, and studies on secretase inhibition

Neurons on steroids: A stereoselective synthesis of the neuritogenic steroid lactone withanolide A was achieved by singlet oxygen ene reaction, Wharton transposition, a Corey-Seebach homologation, and a vinylogous aldol reaction. Biological evaluation demonstrated neurite outgrowth, which supports the potential neuritogenic role of this compound in traditional Indian medicine.

Class F G protein-coupled receptors are characterized by a large extracellular domain (ECD) in addition to the common transmembrane domain (TMD) with seven α-helixes. For smoothened receptor (SMO), structural studies revealed dissected ECD and TMD, and th
OXYSTEROLS THAT ACTIVATE LIVER X RECEPTOR SIGNALING AND INHIBIT HEDGEHOG SIGNALING
-
Paragraph 0109, (2016/08/17)
This invention relates, e.g., to compositions comprising oxysterol compounds represented by Formula I or Formula II, e.g., comprising one or more of Oxy 16, Oxy 22, Oxy30, Oxy 31, Oxy35, Oxy37, Oxy43, Oxy44, Oxy45 or Oxy47. The compounds are shown to be Hedgehog pathway inhibiting, and to act as agonists for liver X receptor (LXR). Also disclosed are methods of using compositions of the invention to inhibit Hedgehog signaling effects, such as cell proliferation, including treating subjects in need thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions and kits for implementing methods of the invention.
