Plasma 24S-hydroxycholesterol correlation with markers of Huntington disease progression

24S-hydroxycholesterol (24OHC) is involved in the conversion of excess cholesterol in the brain, and its level in plasma is related to the number of metabolically active neuronal cells. Previous research suggests that plasma 24OHC is substantially reduced in the presence of neurodegenerative disease...
