Metabolism of oxysterols derived from nonenzymatic oxidation of 7-dehydrocholesterol in cells[S]
Recent studies suggest that 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC)-derived oxysterols play important roles in the pathophysiology of Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS), a metabolic disorder that is caused by defective 3β-hydroxysterol-Δ7-reductase (DHCR7).
