7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol is a lipid of Sterol Lipids (ST) class. 7alpha-hydroxycholesterol is associated with abnormalities such as Atherosclerosis, Morphologically altered structure, Carotid Atherosclerosis, Myocardial Infarction and Cerebrovascular accident. The involved functions are known as Apoptosis, Cell Growth, Necrosis, Chromosome Condensation and Tissue Adhesions. 7alpha-hydroxycholesterol often locates in Arterial system, Endothelium, Cell Nucleus, Membrane and yolk. The associated genes with 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol are acetyl-aspartyl-glutamyl-valyl-aspartal, BCL2 gene, OGFR gene, Genome and GAPDH gene. The related lipids are Hydroxycholesterols, 7-ketocholesterol, Ketocholesterols, 20-hydroxycholesterol and 25-hydroxycholesterol.
To understand associated biological information of 7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol, we collected biological information of abnormalities, associated pathways, cellular/molecular locations, biological functions, related genes/proteins, lipids and common seen animal/experimental models with organized paragraphs from literatures.
7alpha-Hydroxycholesterol is suspected in Kozlowski Celermajer Tink syndrome, Atherosclerosis, Carotid Atherosclerosis, Xanthomatosis, Cerebrotendinous, Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca, Fatty Streak, Arterial and other diseases in descending order of the highest number of associated sentences.
