As a component of membrane lipids and the precursor of oxysterols and steroid hormones, reprogrammed cholesterol metabolism contributes to the initiation and progression of multiple cancers. Thus, we aim to further investigate the significance of cholesterol metabolism in lower-grade gliomas (LGGs).

Boar taint is principally caused by accumulation of androstenone and skatole in adipose tissues. Studies have shown high heritability estimates for androstenone whereas skatole production is mainly dependent on nutritional factors. Androstenone is a lipophilic steroid mainly metabolized in liver.

In this study, we determined that EBR induces stress responses through activating Akt, which reduced the mTOR complex I (mTORC1) activation in SW480 and DLD-1 colon cancer cells. As a consequence, EBR triggered macroautophagy and led to lipidation of LC3 most efficiently in SW480 cells. The cotreatment of spermidine (Spd) with EBR increased lipidation of LC3 synergistically in both cell lines. We also found that EBR promoted polyamine catabolism in SW480 cells. The retention of polyamine biosynthesis was remarkable following EBR treatment.

Intramuscular fat (IMF) is one of the most important factors positively associated with meat quality. Triglycerides (TGs), as the main component of IMF, play an essential role in muscle lipid metabolism. This transcriptome analysis of pectoralis muscle tissue aimed to identify functional genes and biological pathways likely contributing to the extreme differences in the TG content of broiler chickens.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder associated with inborn errors of steroid metabolism. 21-hydroxylase enzyme deficiency occurs in 90 to 95% of all cases of CAH, with accumulation of 17 hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP).

Natural bioactive compounds have been found superior to chemical compounds for use in pharmaceutical applications. Such natural compounds include biologically active compounds present as a part of fungal metabolism that originate through different biochemical pathways and contain different structural groups like benzopyranones, phenols, toxins, and steroids.

CYP7B1, a cytochrome P450 enzyme, metabolizes several steroids involved in hormonal signaling including 5a-androstane-3b,17b-diol (3b-Adiol), an estrogen receptor agonist, and dehydroepiandrosterone, a precursor for sex hormones. Previous studies have suggested that CYP7B1-dependent metab-olism involving dehydroepiandrosterone or 3b-Adiol may play an impor-tant role for estrogen receptor b-mediated signaling.

Nur77 is one member of the nuclear receptor superfamily. As a transcrip-tion factor, Nur77 participates in a variety of biological processes, includ-ing T cell development, inflammatory responses, steroid hormone synthesis, and hepatic glucose metabolism. It typically acts via binding to the Nur77 responsive element (NBRE) in the promoter regions of its target genes.

Retinoic acid and its relatives, natural products of vitamin A metabolism, have been discovered to be critical ligands for key receptors of the steroid receptor superfamily, such as the retinoic acid receptor and the RXR receptor. Vitamins and Hormones has not had a review of this important fatsoluble vitamin for some time, and it seemed important not only to touch on the modern aspects of the retinoic acid receptor and its relatives but also of the roles of vitamin A in development and diVerentiation as well as its activity in certain tissues and in disease states....
